TLLP 2018 presentations


Tandem Language Learning Project (TLLP) 2018 Presentations

TLLP is a bilingual research exchange conducted by the Asia Institute at the University of Melbourne and the Graduate School of International Media, Communication and Tourism Studies at Hokkaido University.

The program pairs Melbourne and Hokkaido students, who then engage in research information exchange, supporting each other's acquisition of relevant target academic language skills. During the exchange, students prepare a research abstract, presentation slides and script in their target language. Melbourne students receive feedback from Hokkaido students on their Japanese work, and return give feedback to Hokkaido students on their English.

At the end of the program, all students prepare a paper in their target language with the help of their program partner.
