2nd Japanese Continuers Speaking Day (Teacher Registration)

Event Sold Out. Teachers can still register as standalone examiners

**This event is now at capacity and cannot accept more students. Teachers are still welcome to register and participate as examiners.**

JTAN is pleased to be able to offer an online version of our popular Continuers Speaking Day in 2020. This event will differ slightly in timing and operation this year due to the use of the Zoom teleconferencing platform and so it is important for participating teachers to carefully read the information below when registering.

*This is a SECOND speaking day due to the overwhelming demand for the 30th May. We are currently ACCEPTING registrations for this event. 

**Student applications made from 28th May onwards must be prepared to be placed into any session, including Session 5 commencing at 1:50pm.**

If you previously registered for the waitlist you will need to complete your registration (you may need to complete a new registration if adding students)

All students attending this event should register directly with JTAN OR when the event opens we will advise you of how to add students to your registration. Please only register YOURSELF below as an examiner.

Zoom Training for Examining Teachers

Examining teachers will need to join an online training session approximately 1 week prior to the event. In this training session teachers will be shown how Zoom will be used to organise and run the event, how to use Zoom for their examining role, how to use Google Classroom to provide feedback to students, and to answer any questions they may have about the event.

Zoom Pilot Testing for Participating Students.

Students will be encouraged to login to a quick Zoom session to test their internet connection, microphone and camera. They will then be provided with the link to Google Classroom in order to access their feedback on the Saturday.
