Extensive Reading - the Whats, Whys, and Hows

Sunday, January 14th, 2007, 2:15 PM - 4:20 PM

Speaker: Ron Murphy, Ehime University

In an ideal world, teachers would be able to offer learners stimulating lessons with interesting content at an appropriate level for each student. Extensive reading programs claim to do just that. Murphy will review the claims of extensive reading proponents, and skeptics. He will also present lesson ideas, and results of a study of extensive reading classes at Ehime University.
