During 2022, the following goals of the research were achieved.1) Equipment was upgraded to conduct a further 10 interviews, bring the database total to the proposed 40 interviews from foreign residents of Japan from 20 countries. Interviewees ranged from a wide range of fields, including agriculture, health services, manufacturing, restaurant/hospitality, and education. Paperwork (consent forms, etc.) from all participants were secured.2) Using an outside contractor, interviews were edited and uploaded to the Database of Immigrant Narratives. The Internet interface was expanded to include additional resources for educators, including a complete explanation of the Intercultural Competence through Narrative pedagogy, as well as examples for implementation in EFL curricula. Further, Japanese translations were added for these sections.3) Using the DIM, two one-semester curricula were created and tested in a one-year course for third-year English majors. An empathy instrument was administered prior to and following the course, in addition to an exit survey, with the results analysed and submitted for publication in an academic journal (currently in publication).4) To expand awareness of the DIM, presentations were given at two domestic conferences and one international conference.
