“Student Engagement with English as a
Lingua Franca (ELF)”
Abstracts"Why Study Abroad for Student English Teachers: ELF and Their Awareness of Correctness"
Study abroad has started to be integrated into university teacher training programs because it is believed
to improve student English teachers’ communication abilities. This talk investigates how study abroad, whichgave them direct experiences of ELF communication, affected their awareness of linguistic correctness andchanged their ideas about communication.
Ayako SUZUKI, Ph.D., a professor in language education, is an Associate Director at the Center for English
as a Lingua Franca, Tamagawa University. She has been researching ELF for over 10 years.

"ELF-informed Pedagogy in Remote Learning Scenario: Student Engagement in English as aLingua Franca"
Constraints apply to what it is to be done and how in order to promote student engagement and ELFawareness in online classes. The presenter will illustrate methods for incorporating ELF-aware pedagogy inuniversity teaching and increase opportunities for students to engage in English as a Lingua Franca during
remote learning.
Rasami CHAIKUL is an Assistant Professor at Tamagawa University. Her research interests include
critical pedagogy, ELF, language policy, and sociolinguistics.

“International Virtual Exchange: Sharing Cultures and Sharing the Joy of Using English”
The International Virtual Exchange Project is an international online forum in which students share
their cultures and interact with students in various countries. Students report that it was a valuable
experience for them, in that not only were they able to learn about cultures in other countries, but they also
discovered diversity within their own country through interacting with students from various regions
throughout Japan.
Sherry SCHAFER teaches in the International Communications Department at Aichi University, and has
research interests in Extensive Reading and English as a Lingua Franca.

“A Way to Bypass the Inherent Lack of ELF Standard”
Most English teachers would wonder how on earth they are supposed to know what to teach in an ELF classroom whenobviously there is no one standard they can refer to in order to tell right from wrong. Such a question, though, does notnecessarily have its roots in the basics and the reality of language acquisition, which point to the need to switch from "what"
to "how" especially in the ELF classroom. As an example, a new de facto-ELF classroom interpretation on old language
acquisition basics like comprehensive input in basic to intermediate-level task-based language teaching will be presented.
Nora KOTSEVA-KATSURA is a part-time instructor at Aichi Gakuin University and doctoral candidate at
Nagoya University Graduate School of International Development.
