    OKAZAKI Takayuki
    Through this research the process of estabilishing a Maori language education system under Maori language revitalization movement as well as the current situation was analyzed in order to consider how to establish an Ainu language teaching method based on the Maori Te Ataarangi method. It became apparent that the willingness to offer a unique education appropriate to a people, tribe, region or speaker community greatly impacted the establishment of the education system as well as its ever-evolving transformation. In terms of Ainu language education, detailed beginner level lesson plans based on Te Ataarangi as well as various supplementary activities were developed., Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, 2016/04 -2019/03, Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Kindai University
