Presentation
This session focuses on some of the principal learning challenges students encounter on a daily basis and aims to offer a series of strategies for dealing with them. Motivating and engaging students are perhaps the most difficult tasks which teachers face. However, specifically selected stimulating materials covering a range of diverse cross-curricular themes make the classroom experience far more enjoyable for all. We will also look at a variety of practical ways to make learning vocabulary fun.
Programme
First Session
- Today’s students must be encouraged to make connections between the materials they are studying, books, films, art, other school subjects and the world about us: connections which provide both language practice and education in the fullest sense
- IWB software packages and pre-prepared technological resources accompanying courses make this approach far easier and more enjoyable than ever before and we’ll be demonstrating how to exploit these resources effectively
Second Session
- The second session will look in detail at how we can help develop students’ vocabulary knowledge and ensure that they can commit lexis to memory and use it effectively
Objectives
- To link historical, geographical and cultural themes using the basic instruments offered by most IWB software packages
- To demonstrate how to use ready-made, easy-to-use digital materials to enhance a traditional lesson
- To help teachers understand the didactic background behind a lexis-based approach to English language teaching
- To give students all the tools they need to expand their vocabulary and to develop their language competences
