    "title": "Communicating with Humor: Poetic Exchanges in the L2 Classroom",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "<p>As we strive to improve speaking skills in the L2 classroom, we often aim at &ldquo;correct,&rdquo; standardized language over the actual meaning of the spoken words. With less investment in the content, it is difficult for L2 students to appreciate the interactions and enjoy, for example, humor using the target language as they tend to remain continuously passive in the learning process under the pressure to speak accurately. In order to motivate students to communicate with their own voices in a relaxed learning environment, this report introduces a new way of expression and communication using a target language, that is, the use of linked poetry, in which students follow the rules of a mora/syllable pattern and exchange written poetic expressions with one another. This exercise of student-driven word choice in a stress-free setting triggers laughter and enjoyment that increase students&rsquo; incentive to appreciate the meaning of each word and the possibility of word combinations in the target language.</p>",
