Sendai JALT:

Using Self-Access in a Japanese Junior High School

Date: Sunday, May 27th, 2001 Time: 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM

Speaker: Raymond Wong

Description:
This workshop will include an account of the introduction of a mini self-access system at Nishiyama Junior High School in Sendai, to be followed by an open forum about learner autonomy, self-directed learning, and how the introduction and use of self-access in Japanese secondary schools can complement the current syllabus and cater more effectively for the students' different learning styles and needs. The motivational dimension of using self-access will also be discussed. Also presented: Foreign Language Anxiety and JTEs, a short presentation of the initial findings of a small exploratory study into whether JTEs as non-native EFL teachers experience foreign language anxiety and the possible pedagogical implications of this affect on the EFL classroom in Japanese junior high schools.
