The current paper reports the same type of data but from a more recent time period, 2001 through 2007, and involving an additional longitudinal perspective of any changes in “E” listings at ICU over a longer period of time. For the time period 2001 to 2007, it was found that of 4802 courses listed in General Education and the six ICU major academic divisions, the language of instruction of 65.7% of the courses was listed as “J” (Japanese), 17.0% as “E” and the remainder involved some combination of “E” and “J,” with “J” almost always the primary language. This paper (a) provides the details of these listings year by year for General Education and each of the six major academic divisions at ICU; (b) allows for a comparison of the results of this investigation with that of Riney (2000); and (c) points out why a mere reporting of such listings may not be an adequate indication of overall practice in terms of language of instruction at ICU.}, pages = {1--11}, title = {The Number of English-medium Courses at ICU from 2000 to 2007}, volume = {24}, year = {2010} }
