25th Four Corners Tour

JALT2013 marks the 25th year of the Four Corners Tour. Plenary, Featured, and other specially Invited Speakers tour the country to bring some of the conference to those who are unable to join us in Kobe. And, even if you are planning to participate in Kobe, Four Corners presentations are a great chance to meet speakers more informally, in a smaller group, or speaking on a different topic.
This year three speakers will join the tour: Balsamo Asian Scholar, Rubina Khan; Plenary Speaker Penny Ur; and Featured Speaker Scott Thornbury.
