Preface
On JALT2005: Sharing Our Stories
The theme of the JALT2005 conference was Sharing our Stories. This theme, supported by innovative presentation formats, inspired both presenters and attendees alike, resulting in a convivial conference atmosphere. The manuscripts selected for inclusion in the Conference Proceedings represent the broad range of papers, workshops, demonstrations, and poster sessions in which researchers, teachers, material writers, and students shared their stories of language learning and teaching, with a special emphasis on practice in the Japanese context.
The papers in the Proceedings have been designated according to their focus to categories including: Issues in the profession, The learner, The language, Approaches to instruction, Teaching with technology, Of global importance for learners and teachers, Reading and writing, Testing and evaluation, and Teaching languages other than English. The contributions reflect current issues and practice in the field of foreign language instruction as described by the conference theme.
In this Conference Proceedings you will find over 100 papers in which we hope you will find information and ideas to support and motivate you in your learning, teaching, and research. We also hope that this volume encourages further cooperation, collaboration, and discussion of language learning and teaching contexts by teachers, students, material designers, and researchers.
We owe our sincere appreciation and gratitude to the dedicated team of volunteers who worked tirelessly to bring the Proceedings to press: Robert Betts, Torkil Christensen, Scott Gardner, Megumi Kawate-Mierzejewska (Japanese Editor), Robert Long, Theron Muller, Ted O'Neill, Greg Rouault, Michael Schart (German Editor), Joseph Sheehan, Robert Taferner, our Reading Committee, and, finally, the authors.
We look forward to exploring the JALT2006 conference theme of Community, Identity, Motivation in next year's Proceedings.
