Promoting Fluency in the EFL Classroom

Saturday, July 12th, 2003, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Speaker: James Dean Brown, University of Hawai'i at Manoa

In this presentation, James Dean Brown first defines fluency and accuracy, and then suggests expanding our view of fluency to include a wider array of language tools, choices, and strategies. He shows how we can foster fluency by providing opportunities, activities, assessments, and explanations. Brown argues that fluency is a matter of degrees.
