Developing young JFL in the Scottish primary context: Japanese for Young Learners Project

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

In this paper, I give an overview of Scotland’s new Curriculum for Excellence (CfE) with a focus on the 1+2 Languages Policy. There is an increasing emphasis on cross curricular approaches to teaching and learning in the development of the CfE framework. In other words, this interdisciplinary (IDL) approach involves teaching and learning moving away from traditional subject divides. I will address the impact of IDL approach to the development of Japanese packages for young JFL learners and 1+2 practitioners in the Scottish primary school context.
