ETJ Tokyo:

What makes a good workshop? A BLT Grand Prix!

Date: Sunday, June 22nd, 2008 Time: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Philip Shigeo Brown and Colin Skeates

Description:
This hands-on, interactive workshop will encourage participants to explore and discover the qualities of successful workshops. We will aim to demonstrate how to create a successful workshop and provide participants with both guiding principles and a practical framework. There will be opportunities for everyone to apply this knowledge and practice relevant skills in order to better design and facilitate their own workshops, presentations and/or classes. Audience members will also be given time to develop their own workshop ideas and seek feedback and advice, as well as contribute to the process of grassroots teacher development.
