SUMMARY:Riding Metro Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Riding Metro『地下鉄(メトロ)に乗って』DVD screenings  \nIn conjunction with \nthe TOKYO: Before/After photography exhibition \n  \nSaturday\,   July 7\, 3:00 P.M. \nMonday\,     July 9\, 6:30 P.M. \n  \nAt The Japan Foundation\, Toronto \n2 Bloor Street East\, above the Royal Bank \n  \nAdmission free \nReservations required: 416.966.1600 x229 \nBased on a novel by Jirō Asada \nDirected by Tetsuo Shinohara\, 2006 \nin Japanese with English subtitles\, 121 minutes \nIn the photography exhibition TOKYO Before/After\, photographs from the 1930s and 1940s are contrasted with works after 2010. World War II with its destructive air raids marks the boundary between these two groups of photographs. Tokyo has gone through so many pivotal incidents in its urban history. The Meiji Restoration in 1868 and the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 transformed the city from Edo to Tokyo. Post-war recovery and reconstruction were celebrated with the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964. The even higher fever of the Bubble economy and its sudden burst transformed the city again at the tail end of the 20th century. What will the upcoming Olympic Games in 2020 do to the city? We all wonder. \nRiding Metro is a time-slipping story. Jiro\, a lingerie salesman\, steps out of a subway station\, finding himself in the neighbourhood of 1964\, which is the site of his older brother’s mysterious death by a yet-to-be traffic accident. The excitement of the Olympic Games fills the street\, and Jiro puts in hopeless efforts to prevent the accident. \nThe Metro also takes Jiro and his girlfriend to the post-war black market where Jiro’s father started his business from scratch. While the father is critically ill\, the subway takes Jiro to different time slots of the past to confront a young man who will eventually be Jiro’s father. Jiro discovers the inevitable destiny of his family\, both sad and cruel. The Metro is not only a time machine\, but also works as a tool of self-discovery by contrasting the Before/After of the pivotal social changes.

SUMMARY:Coffee Life & Work in Japan
DESCRIPTION:Coffee has been a beverage of significance in Japan since it was first brought to Japan by Portuguese and Dutch traders in the 17th century. It configured social and personal spaces from the late 19th century\, well before the current boom in specialty coffee. These cafes and kissaten witness social change and change in taste and culture; their histories reflect Japan’s own\, and global transformations as well. One such change is in the nature of work\, the work lives of customers as well as work in cafes and in coffee itself. \nThis talk also reflects on the writing of the book\, Coffee Life in Japan\, changes since it was written\, and the June 2018 publication of the Japanese language edition of the work. \nA coffee tasting\, courtesy of Hatch Coffee\, will take place before the event at 6:00pm. \n \nRegistration is now closed. We thank everyone for their interest. Rush seating MAY be available on the day of the event. \n\nMerry White received her A.B. in Anthropology\, A.M. in Comparative Literature\, and PhD in Sociology from Harvard University where she also taught and administered programs in education and East Asian Studies. In 1987 she began teaching at Boston University in the Department of Anthropology. She has also been a food professional and journalist. Her research areas include family and social policy\, education and food anthropology. Her books include studies of Japanese families\, of Japanese adolescents and of Japan’s schools. Helping to establish a coffee growing cooperative in Northeast Cambodia\, she also helped export beans to Japan\, and to create conduits for charitable giving related to this project. Recently\, she co-curated an exhibition of Japanese cooking utensils\, “Objects of Use and Beauty: Japanese Culinary Tools\,” at the Fuller Craft Museum near Boston.

DESCRIPTION:日本語教師情報交換会：日本語学習を継続させる 27\nカナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター \nトロント及びトロント近郊ではさまざまな年齢とレベルの学習者を対象に日本語教育が行われていますが、実際に教えている教師たちはほかの教育機関で行われていること、時には同じプログラム内であっても、自分以外の先生がしていることをあまりよく知らないのが現状だと思います。今、自分の目の前にいる学習者がどのような環境で何を学んできたのかを知り、そして今後彼らが日本語学習を継続するにあたりどのような選択肢があるのかを知ることは、教師にとって大変意味のあることだと考えます。また、教師間のネットワークを活性化させることにより、さまざまなレベルでの意見交換が頻繁に行われることにもなるでしょう。カナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）と国際交流基金トロント日本文化センターでは、2009年12月より、日本語教育機関やプログラム間の“アーティキュレーション（連携、継続性）”のための素地を築くことを目指した集まりを企画してまいりました。 \n第27回目となる今回はオンタリオ州各地での「継承語としての日本語教育」への取り組みのご紹介を予定しております。それぞれの学校における新しい教材や独自の活動について、実際の生徒達の成果物なども紹介しながらご案内する予定です。 \nまた、今回の情報交換会は、直接会場にお見えになれない方のためにオンラインでの参加を可能にいたしました。オンライン参加をご希望の方は以下の参加方法をご確認ください。 \n参加ご希望の方は、会場、または、オンラインでの参加に関わらず、本ページ下段よりお申し込みください。 \n日時：2018年7月21日（土）　午後1時30分～ 4時30分　（開場：午後1時）（東部時間）\n会場：国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター　2 Bloor Street East\, Suite 300\, Toronto\, Ontario \nスケジュール： \n\n\n\n1:00 pm\n開場\n\n\n1:30 pm\n開会\n\n\n1:40 pm\n複文化・複言語主義に基づいた継承語としての日本語教育の可能性\n田中香織　国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター\n\n\n2:10 pm\n学校紹介 \n1．キングストン日本語教室（オンタリオ州キングストン市）：青木恵子先生\n2．さくら日本語学校（オンタリオ州ウォータールー市）：内田道世先生、国実久美子先生\n3．森のまち日本語学校（オンタリオ州ロンドン市）：マケボイ真紀子先生（幼稚部担当）、内原卓海先生（小学生高学年２組担当）\n\n\n3:55 pm\nネットワーキング\n\n\n4:30 pm\n閉会\n＊発表者の方々とお話されたい参加者の方のために、会場は5時ごろまで開けておきます。\n\n\n\nオンラインでの参加方法： \n● 今回はZoomというオンライン会議システムを利用いたします。\n● 発表者によるプレゼンの間、参加者はチャットボックスを使って質問をすることができますが、会場での質問が多い場合はオンラインからの質問には対応できない場合もあります。\n● 本情報交換会の録画は行いません。終了後に録画を視聴する機会はございませんので、あらかじめご理解ください。 \n必要な機材： \n● インターネット接続\n● マイクとカメラ （パソコンに内蔵されているもので大丈夫です。）\n● イヤホン（ハウリングを防ぐのに必要です。）\n● スマホやタブレットの方は専用のアプリが必要です。（Zoomのアカウントは必要ありません。） \nZoomの利用方法： \n● 参加登録確認の際に「Meeting ID」が送付されますので、そのリンクを開いてください。プログラムがダウンロードされ、自動的に接続されます。場合によっては5分ほどかかる場合もありますので、初めて利用される場合は5分ほど前にはリンクを開いてください。\n● スマートフォンやタブレットの場合は、 予め ZOOM Cloud Meeting というアプリをダウンロードしてください。アプリを開いてから、参加登録確認の際送付される「Meeting ID」を入力するとご参加になれます。 \niTunes　https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/zoom-cloud-meetings/id546505307\nAndroid　https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=us.zoom.videomeetings \n ＊ご質問等ございましたら、担当者までご連絡願います。 \n担当：\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター　齋藤典子\nE-mail: nsaito@jftor.org　　Web site: www.jftor.org \nCAJLE　小室リー郁子\nE-mail: ikuko.komuro.lee@utoronto.ca　　Web site: http://www.cajle.info/ \n  \nInformation Exchange Meeting for Japanese Language Teachers:\nContinuing Learning Japanese 27\nCanadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE)\nThe Japan Foundation\, Toronto \nJapanese is taught at several secondary schools in Toronto and its surrounding areas. Yet\, it appears that teachers do not know much about the other institutions\, courses or programmes. This lack of understanding can sometimes be found even within the same institution. We believe that it is very important and necessary for teachers to know what their current students have previously studied and in what type of environment that education took place. Similarly\, it is important to be informed of the available learning opportunities for students who wish to continue studying Japanese.  We believe it is essential for teachers to build a strong and active network that enables them to communicate with one another. Since December 2009\, the Canadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE) and the Japan Foundation\, Toronto have been co-organizing events to build a good foundation for the articulation of Japanese language education. \nFor the 27th event of the series\, we will introduce initiatives in “Japanese as a heritage language education” in various places in Ontario. The education institutions will introduce their programs while showcasing new teaching materials and unique activities along with actual samples of students’ school work. \nFor those who cannot come to JFT\, online participation will also be available. Please confirm the details of how to participate online below. \nWe ask that those who participate both in person and online please register using the form below. \nDate: Saturday\, July 21st\, 2018\nTime: 1:30 pm EDT to 5:00 pm EDT (Doors open at 1pm EDT)\nPlace: The Japan Foundation\, Toronto    　　　2 Bloor Street East\, Suite 300\, Toronto\, Ontario \nSchedule:  \n\n\n\n1:00 pm\nDoors open\n\n\n1:30 pm\nIntroduction\n\n\n1:40 pm\nPresentation: The Potential of Japanese as a Heritage Language Education Based on the Concept of Pluriculturalism / Plurilingualism\nKaori Tanaka\, The Japan Foundation\, Toronto\n\n\n2:10 pm\nSchool Presentations: \n1．Kingston Japanese Language School\, Kingston ON: (Keiko Aoki)\n2．Sakura Japanese Language School\, Waterloo\, ON: (Michiyo Uchida\, Kumiko Kunizane)\n3．Forest City Japanese School\, London ON: Makiko McEvoy (Kindergarten)\, Takumi Uchihara (Elementary School)\n\n\n3:55 pm\nNetworking\n\n\n4:30 pm\nClosing\n* The venue will remain open until around 5pm for those who wish to remain a bit longer.\n\n\n\nHow to participate online: \n● The system we use for the workshop is “Zoom”\n● During the workshop\, online participants can ask the presenter questions using the chat box.

(For example\, both “Japanese Together 1” sessions will cover the same information and sample activities.) \nIn particular\, as some of our courses can be of a seemingly similar level\, if you are not sure which level is right for you\, or if you find the level of the information session you attended was too easy or too difficult\, we invite you to try out the other levels as well! \n\n\n\n\nStarter Course:\nJapanese Together 1\n\nSession 1: Thursday\, August 23rd\n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm\nSession 2: Thursday\, August 23rd\n6:30 pm – 7:30 pm\n\n\n\nElementary Course:\nJapanese Together 2\n\nSession 1: Tuesday\, July 31st\n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm\nSession 2: Tuesday\, July 31st\n6:30 pm – 7:30 pm\n\n\n\nIntermediate Course:\nJapanese Together 5\n\nSession 1: Wednesday\, August 1st\n6:00 pm – 7:00 pm\n\n\n\n\n\n* Each session is held on the same day and time as the corresponding course starting in September\, and will run for approximately 1 hour. \nWhat is “Japanese Together?”\nAt the Japan Foundation\, Toronto\, we offer term-based Japanese Together language courses using the textbook series Marugoto: Japanese Language and Culture\, which was developed by the Japan Foundation. Marugoto is a textbook based on the Japan Foundation Standard for Japanese Language Education (or “JF Standard” – for more information\, please click here).
