• Exploring Second Language Creativity: Understanding and Helping L2 Songwriters

  Brian Cullen

  Leeds Metropolitan University    2 - 431   2009年11月（年月日）  [査読有り]

  学位論文（博士）   単著

  This study investigated how to help Japanese songwriters writing in English. It also aimed to evaluate and develop tools for probing the mental processes underlying L2 creativity. Evaluating various methodologies (corpus analysis of lyrics, interviews, verbal protocol analysis, and journal studies) led to eight case studies of Japanese L2 songwriters centered on the “dialogues of creation” which arose in one-to one songwriting workshops where the researcher adopted multiple roles including researcher, EFL teacher, creative coach, audience, and songwriter.
  Songwriting was shown to be a flexible use of cognitive, social, linguistic, and psychological strategies to solve a “song puzzle,” simultaneously manipulating mental representations, inner voice, external constraints of song norms and language, and internal constraints created by writing. Key requirements underlying L2 creativity were revealed as flexibility in strategy and language use, openness, creation of favourable circumstances, awareness of L1 norms, and development of craft through appropriate feedback and experiential learning. Other important issues addressed were motivations, inner and external validation criteria, borrowing and ownership, and L2 identity negotiation.
  Three approaches to helping L2 songwriters were formulated: a language-centered approach highlighting deviation from English song and linguistic norms, a skills-centered approach utilizing an L2 songwriting model, and a learner-centered approach identifyin characteristics of the "good L2 songwriter." Teacher mediation through songwriting exercises and feedback created an experiential and organic curriculum which facilitated rapid development of strategies and self-correction skills.
  The investigation into mental processes, use of metaphor, and management of multiple roles may interest qualitative researchers. The descriptions of creative cognitive strategies in manipulating mental representations and inner voice, importance of inner validation, and process model of L2 songwriting may inform research in L1 and L2 creativity. Pedagogic implications for experiential learning, collaborative learning, organic curriculum, bilingual clustering, and L2 identity negotiation may contribute to EFL and ESP.

• Songs in the Discussion Classroom

  Brian Cullen

  Aston University    1 - 52   1999年08月（年月日）

  学位論文（修士）   単著

  This paper examines the use of songs in the foreign language discussion classroom. It aims to demonstrate that songs can be a powerful pedagogic tool in discussion and to establish a framework for the design of materials which incorporate songs.
  The use of appropriate music in the classroom has motivational effects for most learners. In addition, music has strong physiological effects and the resulting affect can positively influence cognition. Music may also encourage greater use of the right hemisphere of the brain and lead to a more holistic approach which increases the rate of language acquisition. The text of songs offers the advantages of authenticity and its features make it easily understandable to language learners. The universal themes enable it to to lead into almost any discussion topic and the personal perspective of the song participants direct it towards the central issues of the topic.
  In order to identify the meanings which are available for discussion, a model of meanings
  in music and song is developed by drawing on work from psychology and musicology. The meaning in music and song is influenced by four factors - musical structure, social context, physiological nature and cognitive nature. These interact to form meanings in the mind of the listener. These meanings can be grouped into three types - representation of external meanings, expression of emotions and musical meanings. The large variety of meanings or possible interpretations of a song is seen as a positive rather than a negative point in the discussion classroom where their statement and resolution can produce a rich interchange of views.The four factors which influence these meanings are explored in detail and extensive examples of how they may be realized in discussion tasks are given.
  Moving from theory to practice, a framework for incorporating these discussion tasks into
  coherent materials is presented. Various options for presentation, comprehension, exploitation and
  discussion of the song are examined. These are illustrated with reference to a sample set of
  materials. In this way, teachers can easily produce their own materials. Songs can also be employed to encourage students to produce discussion materials. This can lead to greater learner autonomy and considerable learning outside the classroom as well as providing opportunities for teacher development.
  The paper concludes by reiterating the powerful role that songs can play in language
  acquisition in the discussion classroom and outlining some possibilities for further research.

• Investigating the Effects of Repeated Reading and NLP Language Patterns on Reading Rate

  Brian Cullen, Ben Backwell

  Nagoya City University Kiyo ( Nagoya City University )    2017年12月

  研究論文（大学，研究機関紀要）   共著

  This paper investigates EFL student reading speed and describes a quasi-experimental study that attempted to quantify the effects of repeated reading and the use of NLP language patterns in the instructions. An experimental group (n=30) and a control group (n=30) carried out the same timed reading activity three times each lesson for five lessons. The instructions for the experimental group included NLP language patterns designed to promote faster reading. It was shown that the repeated reading is clearly correlated with gains in reading speed. With regard to the NLP language patterns, although there was an increase in mean reading speed, this was not shown to be statistically significant either within the lesson or over the course of the five lessons.

• Goal-Stepping: Setting and Clarifying Goals in Physical Space

  Brian Cullen

  Mental Space Pyschology Society Newsletter ( Mental Space Pyschology Society )  8   8 - 15   2017年11月  [査読有り]

  研究論文（学術雑誌）   単著

  This article explores goal setting within the framework of embodied cognition and mental space psychology and discusses how a proposed "goal-stepping" process can be used in combination with traditional goal setting techniques in order to exploit the space around our bodies to reduce the cognitive workload. A study of goalsetting in the context of a Japanese university (n=40) is presented and the results indicate that the activity creates significant improvements (p<0.01) in three variables: clarity about the steps involved in setting goals (+37%), level of motivation towards goal (+22%), and belief in the likelihood of achieving the goal (+23%). Participants also indicated strongly (mean=82%) that physically moving in space helped them to identify the required steps towards the goal.

• Rules of Life

  Brian Cullen, Ian Roth

  The Language Teacher ( Japan Association of Language Teachers (JALT) )  4１ ( 5 ) 27 - 28   2017年06月

  研究論文（学術雑誌）   共著

  In The Rules of Life, Templar (2012) provides advice for living better. Some ‘rules’ he proposes include, “Accept what is done is done” and “Dedicate your life to something.” While these kinds of rules proposed by other people can be useful, this activity helps students to identify their own rules. This can foster learner autonomy and critical thinking while also providing a fun language learning experience. After coming up with their own rules, the students represent them graphically with icons and share their rules in short group presentations.

• Explorations in NLP and Language Teaching

  Brian Cullen (担当： 単著 )

  SIS  2015年03月

  This book is an attempt to bring together some of the recent research and thinking in the application of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) to language teaching. While all of the writers are teaching in a Japanese context, the ideas are universally applicable. All around the world, the one constant of education is that students should be learning, and at its heart NLP can be seen as a model of learning.

• TEEE; A New English Education System for First Year Students at Institutes of Technology in Tokai

  基盤研究(C)

  研究期間：  2010年04月  -  2012年12月  代表者:  石川有香

  The aim of the research is to develop a new English education system for first year student majoring in engineering at institutes of technology in the Tokai area. We created an English teacher's network for TEEE (Tokai English Education for Engineering Students), in order to clarify current problems, to develop a new methodology, and to apply it to our students. Results of the study suggested that teaching ESP (English for Specific Purposes) through the TEEE system can be effective not only for graduate students but also for first year students, since students are generally motivated to study science and engineering although their technical and English knowledge is very limited.
