Okayama JALT:

A Unified Approach to Integrated English

Date: Saturday, June 12th, 2004 Time: 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Paul Moritoshi

Description:
In the 2003-4 academic year, Sanyo Gakuen University (Okayama City) devised and initiated a systematic and possibly unique approach to the teaching of its integrated (4-skills) English courses across all student levels. This 45-minute presentation explains, justifies and exemplifies this approach. After describing and justifying the approach's rationale, examples of students' work will be presented and discussed. The audience will then be invited to comment on the design and materials in order to assess the approach's strengths and weaknesses.
This presentation would be useful for those dissatisfied with the integrated English textbooks currently on the market or to those seeking alternative and refreshing ways to integrate the teaching of speaking, listening, reading and writing.
This event is preceeded by an earlier presentation on using pop music (3:00 PM - 4:00 PM).
