Abstract
In recent years many Japanese universities have established language lounges with the objective of improving students’ communicative competence in English. The setting of language lounges in universities is different from language classrooms where the students gather and the teacher goes in and delivers a lesson. In language lounges, students interested in learning more and improving their English communicative competence go in and interact with the teachers available. This paper looks at a few instances of interaction in a university language lounge and analyzes the various strategies the participants use in the management of knowledge. It also highlights the typical aspects of university language lounges where the students also display rights to knowledge, which does not usually happen in language classrooms.
