On February 2, New International School of Japan (NewIS) will be hosting the second annual JCIS-sponsored all-Japan conference for Japanese language teachers at international schools.
JCIS (Japan Council of International Schools) supports English-medium schools that serve the international community in Japan. It does this through sharing information, nationally representing member interests, advocacy, working with other relevant organizations, and recording the development of international education in Japan.
The conference theme is “A Content-Based Approach to Japanese Language Education: Concept Development Across the Curriculum.” It will be held from 8:30am–5pm, and the registration deadline is January 25. For information and an application form, see http://newis.ed.jp/jcisconference.html.
