GUNMA: June - Peace education in language teaching by Charles Kowalski.
This workshop explored ways of implementing peace education in EFL.
It began with an overview of the concept of peace, and an introduction of a model of peace as a series of concentric circles - inner peace, peace in relationships, peace in society and peace in the world.
Participants joined in sample activities at each of these levels, and took home a variety of materials and resources.
Kowalski has taught content-based peace studies classes at Tokai University and Tokyo Keizai University, and conducted peace education workshops for language educators throughout Japan and other countries in Asia.
He also plays a mean Irish whistle.

As every English teacher in Japan knows, Japanese-influenced English, or "interlanguage", can lead learners to produce sentences that are (a) unintentionally comical, (b) very different from the intended meaning, (c) completely incomprehensible, or (d) all of the above.
This presentation will focus on cross-linguistic studies to explain certain often-confused areas, such as the use of possessives in English, and the confusion of abstract nouns and adjectives that gives us "safety drivers".
It will include classroom activities to help clear up the confusion resulting from Japanese influence, and steps learners can take towards the ultimate goal of being able to think in English.
Charles Kowalski teaches English and directs the Japanese/English interpretation program at Tokai University in Kanagawa.
He has presented extensively throughout Asia, and has twice received the "Best of JALT Award".
