Internet Learning Tasks for Japanese Language Learners by Ms. Mae Coloma
Mae Coloma was fortunate enough to be a recipient of the Short Term Teacher’s Training Program at the Japan Foundation Language Institute in Urawa in the summer of 2016. Though it was her second time in Urawa, there was never a lack of insights and revelations into teaching Japanese as a Second Language.

The Internet World is a wonderful place to learn Japanese.
In this Sensei no Wa session, Ms. Coloma will convey ideas on how to engage students in internet tasks and share some useful sites that a teacher can use in preparing for his/her lesson. Come and join the workshop, share and learn from one another on how to engage our tech-savvy students in learning Japanese.

This lecture is for those who have not yet taken the JLPT, or for those who have taken a certain level, but would like to know the contents of a different level that they plan to take. Participants will be introduced to the types of questions which will appear in each test section to familiarize them with the nature of the JLPT. This is open to those who plan to take level N5, N4, or N3.
