On May 21st of this year Bruce Lander gave a short presentation about Storyline to fellow foreign language instructors at an educational conference in Matsumoto, Japan. The main objective of Bruce’s talk in Matsumoto was to give an insight into the Storyline Approach, which for the most part is unheard of in the region. The talk was based on a previous meeting with Steve Bell who kindly spared a few hours of his time back in the summer of 2010 to inform Bruce of the value and learning experience that Storyline provides. Steve introduced Bruce to his colleagues in Germany who currently use Storyline in the English as a Foreign language (EFL) context.
