AATJ Webinar: Advocating for proficiency-oriented Japanese language learning through the National Japanese Exam

The National Japanese Exam (NJE) is an online, proficiency-oriented, standards-based, culture-related assessment tool for students. The presenters discussed how teachers can use it to celebrate their students’ listening and reading performance, reflect on their own teaching, advocate for their Japanese programs, and motivate their students’ language learning.

Panelists were Tomomi Sato, University of Virginia; Miyuki Johnson, Elkins Pointe Middle School; Junko Tokuda Simpson, University of California San Diego; and Yasu-Hiko Tohsaku, University of California San Diego.
