Personal and Public Writing

Sunday, December 2nd, 2001, 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Speaker: Michael Carroll, Momoyama University

The idea of 'finding your voice as a writer' has obvious relevance to high-level learners but some may be skeptical about whether it has any meaning in relation to other learners. Michael Carroll of Momoyama University will show that coming to feel a sense of ownership over words and structures of a language is a crucial part of being able to use that language at any level. This sense of ownership is not separate from, but inextricably tied to an understanding of concrete grammatical features.
