During the day, twenty six presentations in total will be given by speakers from North America, Europe and from many parts of Japan, consisting of fourteen presentations in English and twelve in Japanese. This conference has been endorsed and supported by the Kyotanabe City Board of Education and the Joyo City Board of Education, and we warmly invite local Japanese junior and senior highschool English teachers to participate. Conference participants are encouraged to bring any publications and articles they have, and share them with other teachers at an exchange corner that will be set up at the conference site.
