Saitama JALT:

A Task Based Approach to Using Video in Content Courses

Date: Sunday, July 8th, 2001 Time: 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Evelyn J. Naoumi, Meiji University

Description:
In content courses English becomes a tool rather than an aim. Students need to process a lot of information in English, but their limited language skills hamper them. Videos help because students can see the context as well as listen. But for language production, a task-based approach is particularly effective. This presentation describes the task approach and then invites participants to take part in a task from a content course entitled "Modern Britain."
