The next meeting for the Kobe Chapter is on Saturday, May 24th, 2008 from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

Themed Tasks for the Communicative Classroom

Marcos Benevides

The speaker will demonstrate a 'strong' task-based approach to communicative teaching. This will be based on his co-authored title, Widgets (2008 Longman), but will also be relevant to teachers seeking to develop their own task-based materials. Focusing on classroom practice, and featuring relevant video examples, the presenter will encourage teachers to view fluency-building, motivation and classroom management from a new perspective.

This presentation is aimed at teachers of young adults in classes of 12-40 students (ie: senior high school and college/university). However, junior high school and conversation school teachers may also find it informative.

The meeting is at Kobe YMCA (2-7-15 Kano-cho, Chuo-ku, Kobe. tel: 078-241-7204).
Cost for non-JALT members: 1000 yen; for JALT members: free
