Stage 3 (April 2023-March 2024) Workshops 3 and 4 During stage 3 of the research project two teacher-training workshops were held at Nanzan University to pre-service teachers of English in the Tokai area. These workshops provided practical support for the pre-service teachers to help improve their professional development. The first workshop focused on preparing for teaching practicums and the second workshop focused on post-practicum analysis.

Current Status of Research Progress

2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.

Reason

The research team has worked hard to overcome the delays caused by the covid virus pandemic. Two workshops for pre-service English teachers were held and they were very successful.

Strategy for Future Research Activity

For the upcoming academic year the research team will hold two more pre-service workshops. They will analyze the data collected through these workshops to help improve future workshops and create material for the EKL website.
