HomeLanguage Codes: Helping teachers decode the 'L' in JALT
Saturday, June 8th, 2013, 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM
Speaker: Michael Phillips
This presentation will be divided into three short workshop sessions. Initial discussions will centre on a definition and understanding of what language codes both embody and represent. The next stage will explore the related concepts of personal idiolects and the expression of language identity. The third session will lead into a final open forum opportunity by exploring more specific in-class diglossic issues, and challenge participant notions of correctness, acceptability, and accommodation.
