Exploring learners’ practices and learner-centred pedagogies through dialogue and practitioner research
対話と実践者研究による学習者の実践と学習者中心の教育法の探求
Welcome to the Learner Development Special Interest Group of the Japan Association for Language Teaching (JALT). We are a lively, dynamic community of learners and teachers from all teaching contexts, both formal and informal, who share an interest in exploring learner’s practices and learner-centred pedagogies through dialogue and practitioner research.
We have been active for 30 years, discussing, presenting, writing, and publishing about our practices and research relating to learner development.
