If we look at an overview of technology education in the world, we realize that technology education in professional education, as well as in ordinary education, plays an important role in supporting the idea of a technology-intensive Japan. This study focused on the trend of technology education in compulsory education in Japan. Compared to technology education in advanced countries, fewer class hours are spent on technology education in compulsory education in Japan. However, various attempts have been made with robots and programming, mostly under the subject “technology and home economics,” at junior high schools. In particular, the future development of programming education implementation can be expected. At the same time, schools face multiple problems, including class hours and a lack of full-time teachers. These problems must be solved to enhance technology education.

The present paper is focused on Lyuben Georgiev’s innovative ideas concerning Bulgarian language teaching. The author’s new ideas presented in his work The Mother Tongue in Our Junior High Schools and High Schools (a Language Teaching Endeavour) (1933) have not been the subject of scientific research so far. L. Georgiev’s set of didactic ideas is important evidence for the overcoming of the Herbartian model and the orientation of language teaching towards the formation of communicative competencies. Emphasizing the creative nature of pedagogical interaction, Lyuben Georgiev offers a comprehensive system of ideas – a system that is in line with modern trends in language learning.

This paper is motivated by the Regulation of the Governor of East Java Number 19 of 2014 about the subject of local language as a local content that is required to be taught in elementary schools/madrasah, Madura and Javanese language. In the regulation, Using language is not included as one of the local contents. Meanwhile, the Local Regulation of Banyuwangi stated that Using language should be thought in elementary schools and junior high schools since 2007. It certainly caused paradox between the Regulation of the Governor and the Local Regulation of Banyuwangi Regency. This paper highlights how Using Bayuwangi language has high language vitality and is able to accommodate with other languages (i.e. Gintangan Village, Rogojampi District, Banyuwangi). The ability of Using language to survive within the society obviously draws questions as to why the Regulation of the Governor is unable to observe from the ethics and emic point of views. The ethics point of view mostly theoretically, which is probably temporary and needed to be verified, while the emic point of view tends to be practical, historical and concrete. A compromised solution may needed to be sought, for example only languages that are truly maintained by its people and proved to have high ethnolinguistic vitality that should be preserved, while others probably should be sacrificed. ABSTRAK Makalah ini bertolak pada Peraturan Gubernur Jawa Timur Nomor 19 tahun 2014 tentang mata pelajaran bahasa daerah sebagai muatan lokal wajib diajarkan sekolah/madrasah yaitu bahasa daerah Madura dan bahasa Jawa. Di dalam Peraturan Gubernur Jawa Timur tersebut Bahasa Using tidak diikutsertakan dalama muatan lokal tersebut. Sementara itu, Peraturan Daerah Banyuwangi yang memberlakukan bahasa daerah Using diajarkan di SD dan SMP sejak tahun 2007. Hal ini tentunya timbul paradoks di dalam Peraturan Gubernur dan Peraturan Daerah Kabupaten Banyuwangi. Tulisan ini menyoroti bagaimana bahasa Using Banyuwangi memiliki vitalitas bahasa yang tinggi dan mampu berakomodasi dengan bahasa di luar bahasa Using (sampel Desa Gintangan, Kecamatan Rogojampi, Banyuwangi). Kemampuan bahasa Using yang dapat bertahan di masyarakatnya tersebut tentunya memunculkan pertanyaan mengapa Peraturan Gubernur tidak melihat dari sudut pandangan etik dan emik dalam bahasa. Pandangan etik lebih banyak bersifat teoretis, masih bersifat sementara dan perlu diuji kebenarannya. Sementara pandangan emik lebih bersifat praktis, kesejarahan, dan kenyataan yang konkret. Untuk itu perlu dicari penyelesaian kompromistis, hanya bahasa yang benar-benar dipelihara oleh masyarakatnya, yang terbukti vitalitas etnolinguisnya tinggi, dan yang perlu dilestarikan.

In Japan, each municipal or prefectural board of education (BOE) is responsible for selecting its own coursebook series to be used in English lessons for nation-wide, compulsory education courses (elementary through junior high school) and in high school. This paper is a report on the investigation of the official governmental websites of five municipal or prefectural BOEs to find what kinds of methods they currently use for the selection process of English coursebooks for junior high school (JHS). The processes employed by the BOEs were examined. It appears that the criteria BOEs use for selection differ and may not be firmly grounded in research on SLA and materials evaluation. Another consequence of the strategies used by BOEs is that they may be less inclined to adopt different coursebook series than those used in previous years. 日本では、各市町村または県の教育委員会(BOE)が、小学校から中学校の義務教育及び高校の英語の授業で使用する独自の教科書を選択する責任がある。本論文では、政府の公式ウェブサイト上の5つの教育委員会を調査して、BOEが中学校英語の教科書採択に現在どのような方法を採用しているかについて報告する。BOEで採用されている教科書採択方法を調べたところ、各BOEによって基準は多少異なり、SLAと教材評価の研究にしっかりと基づいていない可能性がある。BOEによっては、前年度で使用されたものとは異なる英語教科書を採用する事に消極的である可能性もある。
