Methods of Using Content-Based Instruction

Speaker: Kirby Record

Date: Sunday, November 17th, 2002

Time: 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Location: Akita

Venue: GH-300, MSU-A (Minnesota State University Akita)

Description: Dr. Kirby Record's presentation demonstrates methods of using content-based instruction with low-intermediate to advanced students. He will use segments from one or more films and show how these materials can be used effectively even with students with minimal proficiency in English for instruction in listening, speaking, writing and reading. He will then demonstrate how to teach American poems to intermediate-level to advanced students and how this instruction is also useful for improving the comprehension of English reading and writing. This also increases the students' sensitivity to the sounds and nuances of the English language and trains them both in logical and imaginative thinking strategies.
