Saturday Plenary
In this session, we will introduce and share the design and resources of a series of hands-on drama activities as tools of participatory, intercultural language learning in the Japanese language classroom. Our hands-on activities include Japanese style comedy role-play in a bilingual manner, which encourages students to work in a collaborative, non threatening environment regardless of age or language level. The activities aim to cultivate students' personal and social capabilities and promote their creative thinking and intercultural understanding.
