Kobe JALT:

Development and Globalization in Japanese Education

Date: Sunday, January 29th, 2023 Time: 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Yilin Sun (emeritus professor), Yuko Igarashi (Ritsumeikan University)

Description:
The Kyoto Chapter of JALT, in collaboration with the Gifu Chapter of JALT, the Kobe Chapter of JALT, and the Global Issues in Language Education Special Interest Group of JALT present their 3rd annual event on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) issues in ELT on January 29th, 2023. The Japan Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's (MEXT) policy is pushing many educators in Japan towards a more "globalized" or "diverse" education system. This goal is important but many of us have unclear definitions as to what this means and how it will affect them in their roles in their respective fields. Dinner in Kyoto to follow for those who are interested. More information on the Kyoto JALT website.
