Akita JALT:

Suggestopedia

Date: Saturday, January 27th, 2001 Time: 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Charles Adamson, Miyagi University

Description:
Suggestopedia accelerates language learning by employing suggestion to free the students' functional reserves. Joy, mental relaxation, and concentration without tension allow both the conscious and the unconscious to become involved in learning. Art, psychology, and pedagogy are combined into a seamless whole which allows the student to cope with the three barriers to learning. In practice this means the use of infantilization, concert pseudopassivity, prestige, double-planeness, intonation, and rhythm. A pure suggestopedic class consists of three phases: the decoding of the material, a concert session, and elaboration. Suggestopedia as an independent method will be described first and then suggestions will be offered concerning how these ideas could be applied to the participants' classrooms.
