Bridging the Gaps in ER
This year our Extensive Reading (ER) forum brings together researchers, writers, and practitioners addressing some of the connections or disconnections between reading and writing; between graded readers and learner backgrounds; and between producing readers with socially relevant content and learner interest and accessibility. The speakers will share some insights on their approaches to bridging these gaps as ER takes hold in a variety of contexts in Japan and abroad.
