Expendable Entertaining Educators: Roles of Non-Japanese Teachers of English

Saturday, March 29th, 2008, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Thomas Amundrud, Ritsumeikan University

For the third Nagasaki JALT meeting of 2008, our guest presenter poses several challenging questions. What are the roles that non-Japanese teachers of English feel they are called to play, both in and outside the classroom? How might these affect how these teachers are treated both in the classroom and in their institutions, as well as in their lives as expatriates in Japan? The presenter will share his research on these topics. Through workshop activities and discussion, the audience will be encouraged to share their own experiences to develop, complement and question these research findings.
