Learner Development JALT SIG Announcements

Purchase AUTONOMY YOU ASK! today at...

AYA! or Autonomy You Ask (November 2003) is the first in a series of anthologies from Japan-based teachers working to foster learner autonomy in their classrooms and to integrate learning-centered teaching practices into policy discussions and curriculum reform programs in their respective institutions.

The Anthology has been a collaborative project from the outset and also includes critical responses by members of the project team, and reflective readings from leading authorities and practitioners in the field from around the world.

The LD-SIG's second anthology, MAYA (2006), is also currently available for online purchase. Please see the SIG Publications site.
