We will have a short talk about Extensive Reading from Norikazu Okuyama on Sunday 27 October 19:00-20:00. The event will involve a short 20-30 minute casual talk from our PresentER, followed by around 20-30 minutes of questions and discussion. PresentERs takes place on the last Sunday of each month online on Zoom. It is free for anyone to attend.
When it comes to implementing ER method in regular classroom settings, it is often a struggle to find time in schedule. In a department, even if it is agreed to spend some of the teaching time for ER, some stubborn teacher would prefer teaching oneself than lettting students read independently. This presentation focuses on the early stage of implementing ER to highlight how this way of teaching was introduced so that teachers would not 'teach'.
