APU Ritsumeikan / ELLLO

Hello, I am a university lecturer (AKA English teacher) and the creator of ELLLO, which stands for English Listening Lesson Library Online. My interests are CLIL, CALL, Extensive Reading and Listening (of course), as well as self-publishing and materials development. I am especially interested in task design for listening tasks that push the boundaries of traditional listening materials.


Sessions

Listening SIG Showcase

Sun, May 16, 10:30-12:00 JST

The forum will be divided into three parts. The first part will showcase the Listening SIG. This will include outlining our communication, events, and publication initiatives. The second part will consist of a guest speaker, presenting recent research conducted in the area of listening. The third part will invite SIG members and guests to share their own experiences, stories, and accounts of research developments pertaining to field of second language listening. We hope end with an open discussion between the SIG representatives to find connections between listening and the different SIG groups.
