TC Columbia:

Kagan Cooperative Structures to Promote Language Learning, Caring, and Peace

Date: Saturday, September 20th, 2003 Time: 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM

Speaker: Spencer Kagan

Description:
Dr. Kagan's simple cooperative structures are transforming instruction in classrooms world-wide. His simple structures dramatically increase comprehensible input, language practice opportunities, and a safe context in which to try on unfamiliar language forms. At thge same time students learn to accept and celebrate diversity, and understand and care for each other. The ultimate outcome is a transformation of social orientation from a "Us versus Them" to a "We" orientation. Come experience the power of Kagan's simple cooperative structures like Timed Pair Interview, RoundRobin, and Mix-N-Match.
This presentation is co-sponsored by Teachers College, JASCD (the Japan Affiliate of the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development) and GILE (the Global Issues in Language Education SIG of JALT). This event is part of Dr. Spencer Kagan's Japan tour.
