Nagano JALT:

Abraham and Albert - The ELT Implications Of Two Western Pedagogical Theories

Date: Sunday, February 19th, 2006 Time: 2:00 PM - 4:45 PM

Speaker: Sean Mehmet

Description:
Part 1: Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is now a full five decades old. So, over the past fifty years, what have educators gleaned from this theoretical framework? Specifically, this interactive, practical presentation will address ten points that language educators could implement to help learners journey down the path to self-actualization. Motivating the unmotivated will be one of the thrusts of this first hour.

Part 2: More recently, Albert Bandura's Theory of Social Learning offers several direct insights for in the field educators. These insights will be examined, and in the process, reference will, time permitting, be made to the work of Lev Vygotsky, and his Theory of Social Cognitive Development.

Sean Mehmet holds a graduate degree from the University Of Ottawa, Canada, where his main research interest was intercultural competence for educators.
