Voices From the Classroom

Date: Saturday, April 21st, 2001 Time: 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Speaker: Professor Takaki Nobuyuki of Kumamoto University and the PIGATE Action Research Group

Description:
This meeting is in three parts.

  1. The highlight of the first hour of this teacher education extravaganza will be a talk entitled, "Inverting ESP," by Joseph Tomei, of Kumamoto Gakuen University. This presentation will provide an overview of some poster presentations done by Tomei's students on the theme of creating a barrier-free environment at their university. Also in this hour, local teachers of children will give short presentations on practical teaching ideas for the classroom.
  2. In the second hour, Professor Takaki, our featured speaker for the day, will discuss the goals and purposes of the PIGATE Action Research group and explain what the educators of this longstanding organization have accomplished in terms of state-of-the art research and professional development. Prof. Takaki will speak in English and Japanese.
  3. The final hour of the program will be devoted to participants in the PIGATE Research Group reporting, mainly in Japanese, on how they, as practitioners in local junior high schools, have implemented the unique PIGATE syllabus.
The meeting will be followed by a social event at a local 'izakaya.'
