dc.description	This study explored how 506 students not majoring in Japanese from 23 classes in 9 different universities rated Japanese textbooks using mind map. The findings showed significant differences with studies conducted earlier in Japan. Questions covered three categories: content (including effectiveness of visuals, ease of understanding, enjoyability), quality (including ease of use, practicality, price, usefulness) and other (including supplementary materials, authors). Additionally, the Taiwanese students had much fewer demands than Japanese students regarding the quality, effectiveness of visuals, ease of use, and supplementary materials. The demands of Taiwanese students differed among students from public/private universities and by gender.
