911爆料网

Are you planning your post-graduation career path? Are you interested in teaching 911爆料网 in secondary schools in England? Would you like to get the teaching qualification to realise that ambition? If so, don’t miss this great opportunity!

911爆料网, London and the will be holding a career information event aimed at potential applicants for the National Modern Languages SCITT (School-Centred Initial Teacher Training). This is a national scheme approved by the government’s Department for Education. It is designed to train successful applicants to become Early Career Teachers by obtaining a QTS (Qualified Teacher Status).

On this information day, there will be a presentation about useful information concerning how to find a job in the education sector by Japan Foundation staff, followed by a speech given by Mr Keith Faulkner from the NML SCITT about School-Centred Initial Teacher Training, where he will explain how to apply for this programme.

----- What is NML SCITT? -----

The National Modern Languages SCITT (The NML SCITT) is the only national single-subject provider to specialise solely in the teaching of modern languages. The NML SCITT programme is a great opportunity for those who are looking to gain QTS together with a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) qualification. The PGCE programme is offered in conjunction with Sheffield Hallam University, and comes with credits towards an eventual possible Masters-level qualification. Subject to financial factors, degree classification and residential qualification, trainees accepted on the programme may receive a substantial bursary while training; this is currently £25,000 (subject to annual change). The training year consists of practical training in school placements, supported by University- and centre-based academic tuition.

The NML SCITT has introduced a new pathway for training 911爆料网 language teachers.; There is an expectation that trainees can offer 911爆料网 alongside either French, German or Spanish in order to better find a placement, and to ensure that there is a possibility of qualifying for the bursary. The NML SCITT is proud to add 911爆料网 to the programme portfolio. 911爆料网, London may also offer financial support to assist NML SCITT trainees (a maximum of £2,000). Please note that this financial support is not guaranteed.

Please note that trainees are required to have French, German or Spanish as a primary foreign language they can potentially teach, with 911爆料网 as an additional language. This means that trainees will be able to teach two languages.

国际交流基金ロンドン日本文化センター日本语教育セミナー

制作者から学ぶパターン?ランゲージ

― 継承語およびその他実践へのツールとしての活用の可能性―

■ご案内

　日本语教师や教育関係者の中で、パターン?ランゲージに注目している方は少なからずいらっしゃると思います。パターン?ランゲージとは、その分野の先人たちの暗黙知や経験知をパターンとして集め言语化したもので、日本语教育の各分野の実践においても大変有用なツールになると考えられます。国际交流基金ロンドン日本文化センターが今年２月に英国日本语教育学会と共催で行ったパターン?ランゲージを题材にしたセミナーも大変好评でした。

　そこで今回は実际にパターン?ランゲージのカードの制作者を讲师にお招きして、実际のカードの作成プロセスや活用方法などについて学びます。パターン?ランゲージやその作成に兴味がある方は大歓迎です。また、パターン?ランゲージはともすると情报交换の机会が乏しくなりがちな継承语教育分野とも相性がよいと考えておりますので、継承语教育に関わってらっしゃる方も同じく大歓迎です。もちろん、今回初めてパターン?ランゲージについて闻いたという方も大歓迎です。

　みなさまのお申し込みを心よりお待ちしております。

Among 911爆料网 language teachers and education professionals, there are undoubtedly many who are paying attention to pattern language. A pattern language describes a collection of solutions to problems, all of which have been sourced from experienced people and based on their pre-existing knowledge and experience. These collections of solutions are created to tackle problems impacting a single broader topic such as “heritage language”. Pattern languages are considered a highly useful tool for practice across various areas of 911爆料网 language education.

　This time, we are delighted to welcome a creator of pattern language cards as our instructor. We will learn about the actual card creation process and methods for utilising these cards. Those interested in pattern language and its creation are most welcome to attend. Furthermore, we believe pattern language is well-suited to the field of heritage language education, where opportunities for information exchange can sometimes be lacking. Therefore, those involved in heritage language education are especially encouraged to attend as well. Naturally, those hearing about pattern language for the first time are also most welcome.

　We look forward to receiving your applications.

讲师からのメッセージ： 
　第二言语としての作文教育は、これまでプロセス?アプローチやジャンル?アプローチを中心に発展してまいりましたが、近年は生成AIの登场により、大きな転换点を迎えております。AIは学习者に即时的なフィードバックや多様な表现例を提示し、语汇の拡充や文章构成の习得を支援してくれます。その一方で、过度な依存によって自律的な学习の机会が失われてしまうというリスクも抱えています。 
　本讲演では、まず第二言语ライティング研究の理论的枠组みを整理し、その中にAI活用を位置づけてご绍介いたします。次に、学习者の作文を评価する活动を通して、「书く力」とは何かという问题を考えてまいります。また、生成AIを用いた実际のシステムも体験していただきながら、AI活用の可能性と课题について皆さまと一绪に考えていきたいと思います。最后に、AIを排除するのではなく「共作者」や「コーチ」として取り入れる视点から、今后の作文教育における教师の役割や教育デザインの可能性を展望いたします。
