This year we are holding it in association with the JALT Kyoto Chapter and Ludic Language Pedagogy. It will feature nearly 30 presentations on critical thinking in language learning courses. The aim of this conference is to provide an opportunity for researchers and educators to share their research, methods, approaches, materials, and activities for encouraging critical thinking and the use of higher order thinking skills in the language learning classroom.
