Collaboration and Relativization in English Language Education
「英語教育の連携と相対化」
Abstract:
The expectations of English language education have been changing rapidly over recent years. In order to resolve the issues involved, closer collaboration is needed with related disciplines. There is also a need to reconsider the role of JACET in English language education based on relativization with respect to other related disciplines and organizations. The theme of “Collaboration and Relativization in English Language Education” expresses this aim to promote discussion of such issues in order to identify emerging trends in English language education.
