Abstract: (概要)
Whether you've been here in Tottori for one year, or three (or more!), you've noticed that it is one of the most liveable places in Japan. We have fresh air, good food, a (relatively) low cost of living, and some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to stay here after your time in the JET Programme ends? Or, are you curious to see where those old JETs have ended up? This is your opportunity to hear what it is like to stay here for years (and years, and years…) Please come and join us for an entertaining afternoon. And, if you are thinking of staying, this is a forum where you can ask your questions. There will be a question and answer session as well as a panel discussion during the second half of the event.

概要:学習者にとって、初めての挑戦となるような試みを取り入れることは難しいように思えますが、教える側がしっかりと準備を整え、少しずつハードルをあげていく段取りをしていればそれほど難しくはありません。今回のプレゼンテーションでは、クラスの中での出版物、つまりそれぞれの学習者たちが書いたものを通して彼らの世界を広げる足掛かりとなるような7種類のアクティビティをご紹介します。皆が平等であり、各自が尊重されるべき学習環境の中、それぞれの学習者がそれぞれの書ける能力を以てして、伝えたいことを他の学習者に向けて書くのです。仲間である学習者によって書かれたものは、きっちり完成された教科書とは異なった観点から学習者たちが学ぶものがたくさんあるのです。
Abstract: Inspiring students to do things that they have never done is not as difficult as it seems, if we approach them with our own confidence that they can amaze themselves and start with small steps. I will describe 7 activity types that scaffold them toward class publications that can potentially change their world. Starting with egalitarian classes in which their ideas are respected, students have shown themselves to want to and be able to write for their peers and others in remarkably interesting ways.
