Putting Words in their Mouths: Dictogloss, Shadowing, and Summarizing

Speaker: John Small, Kumamoto Gakuen
Date: Sunday, February 23rd, 2003
Time: 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM
Location: Kumamoto
Venue: Sangyou Bunka kaikan, 7-10 Hanabata cho, ph: 096-325-2311
Description: This presentation will cover three activities that give students structured language practice: dictogloss (grammar dictation), shadow talking, and summarizing. With dictogloss, students actively recreate the spoken text, discuss differences and missing information with partners, and participate in a review of the grammar of individual sentences. Shadow talking and summarizing exercises, which are easy to prepare and paperless, will also be explained. Presentation materials come from the presenter's self-published, non-profit, global issues textbooks.
