ASILE conference presentation:
Colloquium 2 The future of research in Indonesian language and culture education Overview: In this panel discussion, we present recent research on various aspect of Indonesian language, Indonesian language teaching and Indonesian society, and explore the contributions such research can make to our understanding of how best to teach Indonesian to non-native speakers. We also ask what future directions research can take, that will continue to contribute to the field of Indonesian language teaching. Our four presentations aim to be a jumping off point for extended discussion, which will give conference participants a chance to respond to the ideas presented and to contribute their perspectives, input and suggestions for the future of research and the teaching of Indonesian. The four presentation are: Abstract: Re-thinking Language Learning and Teaching Strategy: Producing Learner and Teacher Yacinta Kurniasih Monash University How often do we talk to our student about their learning?
