National Geographic Learning:

Turning Content into Learning

Date: Sunday, October 11th, 2026 Time: 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Speaker: Yoshinori Terakawa (Tokyo Metropolitan Hibiya High School), Carmella Lieske (Center for Foreign Language Education, Shimane University)

Description:
Excellent educational materials alone do not guarantee meaningful learning. Their true value lies in how they are used to engage students, develop thinking skills, and encourage greater independence as learners. In this webinar, we will look at how teaching materials can be brought to life in ways that inspire and engage students. Drawing on authentic classroom practice and experience from the field, the presenters will share practical approaches to lesson design, activities that promote deeper thinking, and examples of effective implementation that support observable learning outcomes. Participants will gain fresh ideas for making better use of the materials available to them and creating more purposeful, engaging learning experiences. This accessible and enjoyable session will be equally relevant to experienced teachers and those who are less confident about adapting content or trying new approaches in the classroom. The webinar will be particularly valuable for English language educators seeking strategies that can be adapted to their own teaching contexts. We look forward to welcoming you to this informative and engaging event. Target Audience: Junior high school and high school English teachers, boards of education, private language school English teachers.
