HomeConversational Storytelling in the Language Class
Sunday, May 27th, 2001, 1:15 PM - 2:15 PM
Speaker: Bob Jones
(First of three presentations today) Whenever people gather for social interaction, stories of amusing incidents, friends' misfortunes, personal triumphs, etc., are likely to crop up in the conversation. The presenter will examine some typical features of these conversational stories and demonstrate how transcripts can be used to raise learner awareness of these features. There will also be some discussion of how this growing awareness might be channeled into helping learners to improve their own storytelling skills.
