Dear KATE members, Happy New Year! We’re already in the year 2006. The year of 2005 to us was a memorable year as we showed our potentiality by making successful the Fourth SIGs Workshop/Seminar and KATE’s 40th anniversary conference. While we were preparing and executing the events, we have reviewed what we had accomplished for the past 40 years and questioned ourselves which route we should pursue in the coming years. Now it’s time that we advanced toward a new direction to redefine KATE’s role. To progress into a new direction, we’ll first have another opportunity to reexamine our forty-year-long accomplishments of English teaching, compiling them into a specialized issue of KATE Journal. Second, the Fifth SIGs Workshop/Seminar will focus on new aspects of curriculum development that will be reportedly revised in 2006. Third, the 2006 KATE conference, entitled “Beyond the Horizon: Extending the Paradigm of TEFL,” will present a comprehensive coverage of teaching English as a foreign language, including new teaching approaches. To establish a new goal for English education, we need to tackle a current issue of curriculum development at the Fifth SIGs Workshop/Seminar that will be held at Soongsil University on January 21. Once more, to share our knowledge and perspectives on teaching English as a foreign language, we will hold KATE’s annual conference at Hanyang University on June 23-24. All KATE members are strongly urged to join our annual meetings, for it is your voice that helps KATE find new paths for English teaching. It is your support that forms KATE’s future. I hope I will meet all of you at the Fifth SIGs Workshop/Seminar and at KATE 2006 International Conference. I wish all KATE members health, happiness, and success in 2006. Byoung-Man Jeon, Ph. D. KATE President |
