teaching excellence award

We received a Teaching Excellence Award for an English language course offered during 2010 fall semester!
The course that won an award was an elective course in English language conversation for freshmen, and placed 4th in category (courses with class sizes between 25 and 49).
This is the 4th award during the 5 years that we have been eligible. Hokudai gave its first teaching excellence award in 2005. Since then, Noriko and I were in Belgium for 2 years. That leaves 5 years of eligibility. Results from the last of those 5 years (academic 2011) will be announced in spring 2013.
Most of our team -- Nobuyasu Obata, Xin Li, Chifumi Goto, Yuka Wakatsuki, and my wife Noriko -- are in the picture below taken during a Christmas party in class.

SACLA (Sharing All Cultures and Languages) is a Hokudai student organization that socializes internationally. They are recruiting new members. View more information on their blog.
SACLA holds international lunches. This semester, I believe they start on 2012-04-11 Wednesday (but I may be wrong -- contact them). They meet from 12:10 to 12:50 at the International Student Center (留学生センター) 1st floor lobby. Bring your own lunch.
