K to 12: Exploring New Ideas

Speaker: Michelle Nagashima
Time: 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM (Sun., January 21st, 2001)
Fee (JALT members): free
Fee (One-Day members): Contact to ask
Prefecture: Shizuoka
City: Shizuoka

Description: Children are active and enthusiastic in the classroom and are receptive to almost all activities introduced by the teacher. It is always important that the same material be reviewed and reinforced in an EFL classroom. Using a minimum of materials for the curriculum currently being taught, and developing activities from these basics allows children to develop skills in the classroom at their own pace and level.

Self-assessment as a classroom tool

Speaker: Alan McKenzie
Time: 1:30 PM - 5:00 PM (Sun., April 15th, 2001)
Fee (JALT members): free
Fee (One-Day members): 1,000 yen
Prefecture: Shizuoka
City: Shizuoka
Venue: Kyoiku Kaikan (next to Mr. Donuts across from Shin Shizuoka station).
Description: Self-assessment has generally been treated in one of two ways in the literature: either as a possible replacement for language tests, or as a discrete learning strategy. However, self-assessment's greatest value comes from the development of students' awareness of their learning processes and the information that it can provide the teacher about the learner's beliefs and perceptions of their actions and language ability. In this presentation, I will justify the use of self-assessment in all learning situations, review various techniques which can be adapted to any teaching/learning context. I will also provide opportunities for participants to discuss how self-assessment might enhance awareness of individual learner goals, strategies, and achievements as well as increase opportunities for teacher-student communication.
