Tokyo JALT:

Task based language teaching mini-course

Date: Tuesday, July 5th, 2005 Time: 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM

Speaker: Dr. Zhaohong Han

Description:
NOTE: This event is a three part mini-course taking place on July 5, 6 and 12.

Second language acquisition research and Communicative Language Teaching have hitherto converged on two basic understandings: A) Learning follows its own course; and B) environmental influences mediated by instruction have little impact on learning unless the former coincides with the latter. A recent pedagogical innovation, task-based language instruction seeks to provide conditions for learning to naturally unfold.

Participants in this workshop will be introduced to task-based language instruction, including its rationale, major parameters for evaluating, designing and sequencing tasks, and ways of implementing tasks in classrooms at various levels.
