[SUMMARY] In this study, Data-Driven Learning（ DDL） was implemented in a Japanese class for junior high school students to develop meta-linguistic competence in their native language, Japanese. The instructors taught the class how to combine conjunctive expressions to construct an effective text. The participants were 36 first-year students and 35 second-year students from a junior high school affiliated with national universities. The learning target of the DDL class was the sentence pattern “A indeed B but C.” First, we investigated how this target expression is treated in learner dictionaries and government-authorized textbooks. We found that this learning target is not listed in Japanese language dictionaries for elementary and junior high schools. On the other hand, in elementary and junior high school Japanese language textbooks, it is found to be included in the “discussion” sections of “reading,” “writing,” and “speaking and listening” in the upper grades of elementary school through the first year of junior high school, respectively. Next, we conducted a questionnaire before the class. The results showed that the participants were aware of the target of this study to a certain degree when they read the texts, but they had yet to reach a level of production where they could write and use the texts themselves. Many of the descriptions of participants’ findings in DDL were based on “the meaning of conjunctive expressions.” In addition, there were also statements about the “development of arguments” and the “effect of sentence structure.” After this class, it was confirmed that some students were using the learning targets in classes other than English. This indicates that the DDL instruction affected the participants’ production of sentences in their native language.
