of teaching content from the beginning of language courses. This is not content as “culture for tourists”, but content as cultural knowledge on a deeper analytical
and critical level that links course content to overarching themes or issues. The adaption of CBI approaches to the teaching of Asian languages at St. Olaf College has proved challenging because of the greater difficulty speakers of English have in learning these languages; but it has allowed the department to integrate language and culture in fruitful ways. Phyllis Larson will describe the success of implementing CBI into Chinese and Japanese language courses, the lessons learned, and engage in a conversation with audience members about teaching.
Phyllis Larson is Professor of Japanese and Asian Studies and Japanese Language and Literature and St. Olaf’s College, where she also serves as Assistant Provost and Associate Dean for Interdisciplinary and General Studies. Larson has published articles on Japanese literature, language pedagogy, and Asian Studies in publications such as US Japan Women’s Journal, Modern Language Journal, ADFL Bulletin, and the Journal of the Association of Teaches of Japanese.
