Overview
Advising in Language Learning (ALL) is a growing field in language education that focuses on supporting language learners to become autonomous learners (Benson, 2011; Mozzon-McPherson & Vismans, 2001; Mynard & Carson, 2012). In this joint event by JALT Kyoto and the Japan Association for Self-Access Learning (JASAL), participants will get a taster of what advising in language learning is and how it can be used in everyday interactions with learners in and outside of the classroom.
In Part 1, ‘What is advising? Why advising?’, Curtis Edlin will briefly cover autonomy and its importance in well-being, performance, learning, and motivation, especially as they pertain to education and language development. How this underpins and informs advising will be discussed, and then how this might be reflected in actual practice will be further detailed.
In Part 2, ‘Advising skills and tools’, Yuri Imamura will introduce basic advising skills as well as tools to help learners reflect on their experiences deeply. Some concrete examples of how learners can discover themselves through one-to-one advising sessions will also be demonstrated.
In Part 3, ‘Advising concepts in classroom activities’, Hisako will talk about the ways in which concepts of advising can be implemented in classrooms and introduce activities that teachers can try in their classrooms. She will share her experiences with the activities and the roles of peers and teachers in facilitating the development of learner autonomy. Participants will also have a chance to try one of the activities.
