The purpose of this wiki is to collect ideas, queries and discussion points that we can use to develop the
The Nakasendo English Conference.

One of the unique things about this conference is the use of technology including wikis and google docs in the organisation and planning of the conference. Many people still don't know much about wikis,how to use them, and why they are such great tools. To learn about wikis please watch this great video, Wikis in Plain English.

A wiki is the product of the combined knowledge and creativity of all the members. Each page is written and edited by members working together. Don't hesitate to contribute to The Nakasendo English Conference Story.
We hope you will share your ideas about how ELT organisations can work together to improve teaching practice. To share an idea just click one of the threads below or start your own thread.

Do you plan to have a conference dinner? I think we need information about that and accommodation to go up on the participant website fairly swiftly!

I posted a "To Do" for this page asking memebers to pitch in and reorganise the wiki to make it easier for members to understand and navigate.
Ellen Atama offered this suggestion:
"I think it would be helpful if you ask one or two people to work on it rather than everyone, and make a clear place for planning and a different one for sharing resources."
Any thoughts?

How can we encourage school administrators, Boards of Education, and the Ministry of Education to give teachers some kind of credit for attending conferences and professional development workshops?
