Academic Adaptation Experiences of Chinese Graduate Students in Japan. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, April 2010, Pages: 132
Previous studies on Chinese students in Japan have devoted much attention to stressors encountered in their overall adjustment, social support for the students and the level of satisfaction with their transitional experiences. However, much of the research has been dependent on quantitative research methodologies; academic adaptation only accounts for one aspect of the investigation, lacking thorough and detailed considerations; moreover, research and data on Chinese graduate students' adaptation status is insufficient. This book, therefore, attempts to fill these gaps through an empirical study on academic adaptation of Chinese graduate students in Japan. The study analyzed major difficulties faced by Chinese graduate students at J. F. Oberlin University in their academic adaptation, possible reasons for the academic difficulties and the students' coping strategies. The book serves as a bridge for the Japanese universities similar to JFOU to better understand academic adaptation of enrolled Chinese graduate students. The analysis should also be useful for Chinese students in Japan to adapt to the new academic environment more smoothly and effectively.
