Effective Use of Songs In and Out of the Classroom

Sunday, April 29th, 2001, 1:30 PM - 3:45 PM

Speaker: Brian Cullen, Nagoya Institute of Technology

As most teachers find out at some point, students are highly motivated by listening to English-language songs. This motivation can be a powerful force in language learning both inside and outside of the classroom. This presentation examines different ways in which this motivation can be most effectively directed into language learning activities. A range of song-types and task-types will be demonstrated. Participation is welcomed, especially perspectives on how to adapt song-based activities for different settings such as younger learners, high school, and adult classes.
