主题:Writing Like a Native: The Process of Reformulation
简介:This mini-workshop will focus on a technique that you as a teacher can use to get a better sense of how your students' L2 writing proficiency compares with that of native speakers. The approach, referred to as reformulation, can, if carried out effectively, provide a means for your students to improve their writing dramatically. The potential is there for them to take a quantum leap from where they are now to a more native-like level – one that is more consistent with the sociocultural norms for writing within the target language and cultural group.

主题:Language Learner Strategy Research: Insights from the Past and Present in Looking Forward
简介:The talk will start by looking at early efforts to promote language learner strategy (LLS) research, beginning with the early 1970s when Rubin who provided the first mandate to researchers in 1975. Next we will consider efforts in the intervening years, such as those enumerated in internationally circulated books on strategy research such as those by Grenfell and Harris (1999) and Macaro (2001), culminating in recent efforts to promote LLS research, such as that by Oxford (2011) as well as that by the speaker (Cohen, 2011). Finally, we will consider where future research would be helpful in answering a question that intrigues teachers and administrators the world over: How best can we mobilize language learner strategies in order to enhance efforts at language learning?
