Gunma JALT:

Critical Approaches to Teaching Writing: Mindfulness and the power of "no"

Date: Saturday, June 7th, 2008 Time: 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Speaker: Marlen Harrison

Description:
As "World Englishes" continue to dominate discussions of writing pedagogy, instructors ponder acceptable uses/performances of written language.
