Saitama JALT:

Lessons from MAYA: Practical ideas for introducing, implementing, and sustaining autonomy in language classrooms

Date: Sunday, January 13th, 2008 Time: 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Eric Skier

Description:
In this presentation, participants will have the opportunity to learn about practical ways of introducing student-centered teaching practices into their own classrooms. MAYA, More Autonomy you Ask! (2006) was published by the Learner Development SIG of JALT and the presenter, one of the co-editors, will share lessons and ideas from the anthology. Even with a stress on the practical, the research findings to support the justification of a student-centered teaching approach will also be shared. This will be an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in learning more about learner autonomy.
