Seminar: Language Teaching and Learning II／Seminar: Language Teaching and Learning II

【授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか） / Outline and objectives】
The course is for students wanting to explore effective language teaching and learning both face-to-face and online, targeting various types of second language (L2) learners inside and outside the school language classroom. It focuses on core issues affecting L2 education within the context of second language acquisition (SLA). It gives an insight into the educational and second language learning (SLL) theory: issues on L2 learners, teaching methods and approaches, teaching materials, lesson planning for educators, and educational specific skills for explaining how to elicit and maintain L2 learners' motivation, etc. It also provides opportunities for developing practical techniques to examine and analyse significant aspects of language teaching and learning: students are encouraged to focus on the related topics of L2 education and design their own research studies. It encourages the students to consider how they can contribute to learner achievement and to establish their own career paths in the related educational fields within the global context.

【到達目標 / Goal】
The course provides opportunities to:
1. Learn challenging issues of language teaching and learning within various contexts of L2 education.
2. Acquire theoretical knowledge of various L2 educational studies.
3. Examine how L2 education is implemented effectively with the expertise of the L2 educational studies.
4. Discuss how the L2 educational studies are examined appropriately through different research approaches.
5. Practice basic ideas for conducting research studies on L2 education within the global context.
