The JALT Critical Thinking SIG is happy to announce that we are accepting proposals for presentations to be given at Critical Thinking in the Classroom 2025 (CTC 2025), a conference to be held on August 2nd, 2025, from 9:45 to 16:10 in Building 3 on the Neyagawa Campus of Setsunan University located between Osaka and Kyoto.
The aim of this conference is to provide an opportunity for researchers and educators to share their research, methods, approaches, materials, and activities for encouraging critical thinking and the use of higher order thinking skills in the language learning classroom. Presenters will receive a 45-minute slot (35 minutes for their presentation and 10 minutes for Q&A). Areas of interest may include, but are not limited to, higher-order thinking skills, evidence-based thinking, problem solving, logical thinking, evaluating sources, thinking dispositions, viewpoint-taking, debate and argumentation, academic writing, and of course, critical thinking.
If you would like to submit a presentation proposal, please fill out the submission form at the link below. The deadline for submissions is June 15th, 2025.
If you have any questions about the conference or the submission process, you can contact the conference organizers at hooper.todd.james@ilc.setsunan.ac.jp.
