Sendai JALT:

Literacy in Language Education: What, Why and How

Date: Sunday, January 26th, 2003 Time: 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: open roundtable discussion

Description:
In this discussion about literacy and its role in L-2 education, participants are invited to bring their knowledge, experiences, arguments and questions to the discussion. We begin by focusing on what literacy means in terms of L-2 training. We explore how it might relate to student literacy in L-1. We also look at why teachers should or should not be concerned with literacy in L-2. In addition, we cast about for ideas, theories and experiences in regards to how we can implement literacy in our classrooms. Finally, we contrast and compare what literacy might mean to three basic areas of language education - children, tertiary students and adult language learners.
