摘　　要：The primary aim of this study was to examine the hypothesis that integrating teaching about learning from lailure into a course would lead to positive changes in perceptions of failure and use of strategies for leaming from failure, while the secondary aim was to clarify learners＇ opinions regarding the use of corporate studies as material for oral presentations. The study suggests that perceptions of failure become more positive through teaching about learningfrom failure. Post-course surveys of the experimental group clearly show that perceptions of anxiety had becomesignificantly more oositive. Furthermore, the open-ended responses suggest that students had acquired strategies forlearning from failure. Accordingly, it seems that teaching about learning from failure was effective. Regarding the secondary aim, as far as selecting corporate studies as materials for presentations was concerned, results showedthat this raised student interest, and that levels of satisfaction were high, suggesting that effectiveness extendedbeyond simply practicing oral presentations.
