Abstract

This study explores the current educational ecology of cross-cultural foreign language teaching in colleges and universities through a questionnaire survey of 1,027 Japanese language learners in colleges and universities. The research found that: (1) The cross-cultural theoretical education in Japanese language teaching inherits the educational ecological resources for cultivating Japanese language communicative ability, so it has advantages in curriculum setting, cross-cultural information acquisition environment, teacher teaching, etc.; (2) In terms of cross-cultural practical ability, although all universities basically provide cross-cultural practical activities for overseas study or short-term overseas experience, the popularity rate is not high. Japanese language learners mainly rely on communication and interaction with foreign teachers in teaching, and indirect contact activities such as elective courses on foreign cultural knowledge; (3) The school provides few professional and targeted cross-cultural exchange activities. Japanese language learners lack enthusiasm for participating in cross-cultural practical activities. It can be seen that there is an imbalance in the educational ecology of cultivating cross-cultural abilities in Japanese language teaching in Chinese universities. The cultivation of cross-cultural abilities in foreign language teaching cannot be achieved through a certain course alone. It is necessary for schools to serve as the main body of cross-cultural education ecology and foreign language teaching as the carrier of cross-cultural teaching. Achieve mutual complementarity and promotion of theoretical teaching and cross-cultural practice in cross-field cooperation among various disciplines and departments.
