 note = {4000000581, This article reviews Ryuko Kubota's "4Ds" recommendations for teaching culture found in "Critical Teaching of Japanese Culture" (2003). Kubota presents a critical approach for language and culture teachers where culture should be taught in terms of a "Descriptive understanding of culture", "Diversity within culture", the "Dynamic nature of culture", and the "Discursive construction of culture" (Kubota, 2003). While Kubota provides examples of this approach to teaching Japanese culture to students, I sought to apply the same method to EFL in a Japanese university context. This essay details how the 4Ds were incorporated into courses focused on language skills (speaking, listening and reading). The article concludes with recommendations and encouragements for EFL teachers seeking to seamlessly add cultural content to skills courses with a critical outlook into skill development activities.},
