Details	This poster presentation reports on findings based on students’ participation in ELF and/or JLF discussion sessions in a multicultural pseudo co-learning environment, and follow-up interviews. Based on the qualitative analysis of their narratives, the study addresses their attitude and attitudinal change toward English and Japanese languages. Also, students’ awareness behind their own and others’ linguistic behaviors in ELF and/or JLF are discussed in terms of their discovery and co-construction of shared repertoires or “repertoires in flux” (Jenkins 2015:76) during the course of an interaction. Lastly, implications for developing formal curricula involving multicultural co-learning are considered.
