Special Sessions The general sessions
will include 4 NCJLT special sessions. One of them is
a session called "What We Have Accomplished: Advancements
in Japanese Language Education" presented by Hiroko
Kataokasensei of California State University Long Beach.
As you may know, we have discussed about the current
problems about Japanese Language Education in the U.S.
and talked about how to revitalize Japanese Programs.
We think it is important to know the history of Japanese
Language Education in the U.S. in order to make an action
plan for the future.

General Meeting:
We usually have NCJLT General Meeting right after the
luncheon, however, because of the schedule change, we
will have the NCJLT General Meeting at 4:15PM to 5:15PM.
Please note the change. Right after the meeting, NCJLT
special session 2:a panel discussion called 鼎urrent and
future of Japanese Education� will be held. We would love
to hear your opinions! A Networking Reception will be
following the session. It is a great place to network
with other teachers in a casual way.
