FORUM ON USING ONLINE RESOURCES FOR TEACHER DEVELOPMENT<br />
Exploiting seminar and conference videos for professional<br />
development and training<br />
Ellen Darling (British Council)<br />
Websites such as EnglishAgenda, TeachingEnglish and IATEFL-Online<br />
provide significant developmental opportunities through freely-available<br />
conference and seminar recordings. In this presentation, I will look at ways<br />
to exploit these talks more effectively. Participants will take away practical<br />
ideas for pre-, while- and post-watching activities for use on their own and<br />
in teacher training contexts.<br />

Theory at home, practice in class<br />
John Arnold (Thomas More University College)<br />
Blended learning and flipped classrooms are becoming more popular in<br />
secondary schools. Therefore, teacher trainers need to experience this<br />
model first-hand. This year, I 'flipped' or 'blended' my teacher training<br />
courses. This talk focuses on the how (the structure, tools), the what (the<br />
content), and the results (student reactions).<br />
Experiences of a webinarian<br />
Gayle Norman (i-to<br />
to-i i TEFL)<br />
Teacher training sessions when teachers are all over the world can pose<br />
challenges! A year hosting teacher training webinars has seen me go from<br />
being a tutor intimidated by this fast-growing area of technology, to one<br />
who’s embracing the opportunity to reach students all over the globe on an<br />
interactive platform. In this session I’ll share my experiences.<br />

Krishna Khatiwada (Kathmandu University)<br />
In this presentation, I shall be highlighting the effectiveness of the English<br />
speakers' club to enhance students' level of confidence in both speaking<br />
and academic performance. How the Nepali students took the opportunity<br />
of the English speakers' club to build up the level of their confidence and<br />
how they are better motivated now to create English speaking culture will<br />
also be highlighted.<br />
