How much J-culture in the textbooks?

Postby Otaku on Mon Sep 07, 2009 4:39 pm

64% Japanese culture in JHS English textbooks.
44% in HS English textbooks.

Just to give you a short background of the article, a researcher disected 19 JHS/HS textbooks. One of the things he researched was how much culture or cultural references are made in the textbooks.
