This keynote presentation opens a window into the process of applying for a research grant offered jointly by the governments of Japan and India. Research grant proposals should be recognized as a genre for publications of reference to younger scholars. A grant is not just fixed-term funding but rather a whole process of organizing researchers and a proposed vision that maps onto the procedures and conditions set by the agencies offering competitive grants. Dimensions addressed in this presentation and the Proceedings article include documentation and publications, the cultures involved, intercultural communication challenges, and definitions for the research topic of humanizing online educational experiences.

PDF slideshow with captions briefly explaining the charts and photos. The face-to-face presentation to Thai and Japanese university students and staff is particularly for a group visiting from Rangsit University near Bangkok, Thailand. The presenter is a Japan specialist teaching classes at Osaka Jogakuin University on Intercultural Communication and Bilingualism. The presentation briefly discusses what culture is, world cultures and values, and comparative culture, mentioning other countries including Japan, Thailand, and India. The main topic is American culture and multiculturalism. The U.S. is diverse and multicultural, so it is difficult to generalize about what American culture is, but some American traditions are presented along with cultural research findings. The presentation aims for objectivity as well as frankness, so readers may draw their own conclusions.

A goal for language learners is to function in plural languages according to their own needs and purposes. A bilingual perspective starts from that attainable goal. Learners in Japan tend to idealize L2 mastery or being bilingual, so it becomes other people's business. Monolingual teachers tell students by their example, "go where I have not gone," whereas a bilingual teacher says, "come to my state of functioning." This presentation thus details a paradigm shift from the predominant monolingual second language acquisition (SLA) paradigm to a developmental bilingual perspective.

Podcasting originated as a new form of audio broadcasting, but by 2006, issues of ease of use, proprietary technology, and finances slowed its momentum. Now podcasting is more popular than ever. This presentation therefore traces the author’s initial and current CALL podcasting projects, reconsidering the foundations and pedagogy of podcasting. The author's pioneer work in podcasting was thwarted when his Japancasting blog suddenly disappeared from both paid and free hosting sites 15+ years ago. Japancasting had received many international honors including an "Effective Practice" award from the Online Learning Consortium, particularly for English as a Foreign Language Student-Generated Content. Now the author is collaborating with educators in India to revive the podcasting channel as open educational resources for a broader audience including developing country learners. This illustrated slideshow provides details on the considerations involved, explanatory concepts, and conclusions.

This presentation introduces the notion of career tapering in semi-retirement, aiming for a balance like never before among work, societal activism, and free time activities. Whether citizens, sojourners, or immigrants, most employed residents of Japan (and elsewhere) will be unable or unwilling to retire. The natural desire to choose the terms of transitions, however, can run into customary age limits, around 65 for full-time and 70 to 75 for part-time employment in the case of Japanese higher education. Combined with stereotypical dismissiveness towards older people, a sudden loss of status can be vertiginous. Yet there is a great demand for the services that older language teachers in particular can perform in Japanese education, society, and academia internationally. This presentation illustrates how teaching duties can be gradually decreased and improved in quality, while the teacher remains at least as active outside of institutions. Many suggestions are offered: how to have a better quality of life than ever, contributing valuable services where needed, and enjoying more free time to create and curate. Lifelong learning can accord with lifelong interests.

Distinguished Speaker presentation at the International Webinar held on October 1, 2020 in New Delhi by the School of Foreign Languages, Indira Gandhi National Open University. This presentation shows how global faculty development represents surprisingly specific actions to bring educators and university faculties up to global academic standards. We could be heroes with online presence and achievements that bring individual recognition and higher global rankings. In the current world situation, teaching online is suddenly universal, and lifestyles will continue largely online. For language teachers, the presentation will consider many educational technologies, whether needing high data processing or preferably low bandwidth, and useful for teachers as well as students.

The author's 40th Slideshare is the opening presentation at the Online Teaching Japan Summer Sessions on August 24, 2020 at 10-11:30 (Watch for the Zoom URL or recording later). This presentation places online education in a disciplinary context, charting historical, pedagogical, institutional and cultural dimensions of e-learning. The evolution of online academic conferences will be of particular relevance to this event. Online education will be seen in a broad sense, and as a pan-disciplinary set of meta-skills beyond subject matter expertise.

This symposium presentation at the International Association of Applied Linguistics AILA 2014 World Congress in Brisbane, Australia examines the impact and potential of communication technologies in learning EFL. Case studies focusing on higher education in Japan show how mobile technologies and social media could improve language acquisition in Asian EFL contexts and beyond. Teaching with sound pedagogies and communication technologies, accessed by computers and hand-held devices, can bring about better outcomes through ubiquitous language learning. Impacts can span from better language comprehension to active involvement in learning communities generated in cyberspace. This symposium will thus detail how these emerging technologies are utilized to reform EFL classroom practices. The international presenters, based at five different universities, will theoretically and practically examine factors for successful EFL learning with emerging technologies. M-learning can generate contexts for active learning with learners as agents and creators rather than spectators or recipients of knowledge. We will particularly examine a) how to implement m-learning in institutional settings, b) what makes learners willingly use mobile devices and become involved in social contexts they themselves generate, and c) how teachers can help learners with scaffolding to develop agency as individuals who voluntarily engage with the social context. Among the emerging technologies demonstrated are Social Media, such as Facebook and Twitter, media players like iPods, tablet computers like iPads, iBooks Author for interactive, illustrated, multimedia artifacts that students can also create, and blended e-learning using a content management system and smart phones for m-learning. These studies will shed light on motivational attitudes towards these technologies for language learning, and measure how these tools have impacted L2 acquisition. This slideshow combining the five presentations in the symposium was lost after AILA failed to post it as promised, then rediscovered after five years.

Workshop at the International Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences, Prince of Songkla University, Thailand, on May 3, 2019. The keynote address by the presenter is also here on Slideshare. This two-hour hands-on workshop in a computer lab starts with a history of e-learning and a method of placing mobile learning in historical, cultural, and disciplinary contexts. Another original formulation is (four) Levels of Involvement with ICT (or other technologies). Participants are shown how to set up a free Google Scholar Citations Profile and e-Portfolio, with other suggestions for Web presence and academic networking. A number of mobile language learning apps are introduced, with particular reference to the Southeast Asian setting.

Opening keynote address on "Disruptive Technology and the Calling of Humanities and Social Sciences" at the 11th International Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences, at Prince of Songkla University in Hat Yai, Thailand on 2 May 2019. The conference theme is Global Digital Society: Impacts on Humanities and Social Sciences. The topic of disruptive technology and our calling could not be more suitable for someone who works on international faculty development by leading the World Association for Online Education since 1998. At the same time, the author has worked for the impact to go the other way, from the Humanities and Social Sciences to new technologies, which tend to be rudderless or even dangerous unless guided by ethics, and, in education, pedagogy. In collaboration with Prof. Gráinne Conole (National Institute for Digital Learning, Dublin City University, Ireland), the presentation includes a history of e-learning.

In BC’s nearly-decade-old “new” curriculum, the curricular competencies describe the processes that students are expected to develop in areas of learning such as mathematics. They reflect the “Do” in the “Know-Do-Understand” model. Under the “Communicating” header falls the curricular competency “Explain and justify mathematical ideas and decisions.” Note that it contains two processes: “Explain mathematical ideas” and “Justify mathematical decisions.” I have broken it down into its separate parts in order to understand--or reveal--its meaning. The first part is commonplace in classrooms. By now, BC math teachers—and students—understand that “Explain mathematical ideas” means more than “Show your work.” Teachers consistently ask “What did you do?” and “How do you know?” This process is about retelling, not just of steps but of thinking. The second part happens less frequently. Think back to the last time that you observed a student make—a necessary precursor to justify—a mathematical decision. “Justify” is about defending. Like “explain,” it involves reasoning; unlike “explain,” it also involves opinion and debate. In order to reinterpret the curricular competency “Explain and justify mathematical ideas and decisions,” I will continue to take apart its constituent part “Justify mathematical decisions” and carefully examine the term “mathematical decisions.” What, exactly, is a “mathematical decision”? Below, I will categorize answers to this question. These categories, and the provided examples, may help to suggest new opportunities for students to justify.
