Effective Language Learning Strategies and Techniques

Speaker: Jarrett "Dave" Ragan, Jr., Assistant Professor of ESL, MSU-Akita

Description:
Please note the change in time (updated Aug 18, 2002).
The speaker will present and then have participants apply various strategies and techniques a student or any language learner can use to improve their language learning skills specifically and learning skills generally. Participants will learn about the STARS vocabulary study system, the review cycle, and flashing, all using the old fashioned vocabulary cards. Mr. Ragan will introduce very basic mind mapping and some other useful techniques and skills. Participants are requested to bring a portable recorder such as a cassette recorder or MD recorder or one of the newer IC chip recorders. These relatively cheap devices can greatly enhance your language learning if used correctly. The presenter believes that every language learner needs a portable recorder to collect and review his/her target language. Come to this workshop to find out why and how.
