Content-Based Instruction Workshop: Windows on Teaching Young Learners

Date: Sunday, February 19th, 2006 Time: 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Speaker: Mitsue Allen-Tamai

Description:
Mitsue Allen-Tamai will briefly introduce the current English educational situations of Japanese young learners, as well as the serious educational problems or challenges that Japan is now facing. Then the presentation moves to a short summary of the history of content-based instruction (CBI) and its application to EFL situations, referring to actual examples in Japan. Using some models of content-based instruction (CBI), participants will create their own CBI.

Professor Allen-Tamai currently lectures at Bunkyo Gakuin University (both undergraduate and postgraduate levels) and is Director of their Children's English Program at Child Education Center. She also lectures at Temple, Sophia, Aoyama Gakuin and Obirin Universities.
