Details This study serves as a secondary part of the three-part report on the Japan/US virtual conversation project, which comprises (1) project rationale and design, (2) survey and interview analysis, and (3) interaction data analysis. For part (1), Takei, Fujiwara, and Shimojo (2021) described the project's conceptual, theoretical, and pedagogical underpinnings in detail, and they presented the project design. In part (2), the current study intends to explicate the awareness invoked in the project participants' interaction reflected through the survey and interview. The survey data were statistically analyzed, and the interview data were qualitatively analyzed in the reflexive thematic analysis framework. The mixed-methods analysis results provided some implications for future pedagogical research and linguistic analysis in part (3).
