Saturday, November 16th, 2002, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Willis will show how a series of communication tasks can be generated from one theme and demonstrate their use in class. She will illustrate activities which provide a focus on vocabulary, lexical phrases and grammar within the context of the task, and then summarise the principles and learning theories that support task-based learning(TBL). About the speaker: Dr. Jane Willis is one of the Main Speakers at the JALT 2002 National Conference.
