Communicative language teaching in the 21st Century<br />

Chaz Pugliese (Helbling Languages)<br />

In this workshop, we will first briefly focus on the concept of Principled<br />

Communicative Approach, its underpinnings and the various theoretical<br />

developments in this area over the last decade. We'll then experience a<br />

range of practical classroom activities that will enable participants to put<br />

the theory into practice. I will refer to The Principled Communicative<br />

Approach: Seven Criteria for Success.<br />

OPEN SPACE 2015<br />

Open Space is a mini-conference in itself. It gives you the chance not only<br />

to flag up and explore the topics that matter to you and your colleagues,<br />

but also to learn a new conference tool for use elsewhere in your<br />

professional life.<br />

Facilitated by Adrian Underhill, Susan Barduhn and Ros Wright, you will<br />

have the opportunity to identify issues that are professionally significant or<br />

that fire you up at that moment, and through a brief selection process<br />

arrive at a spontaneous conference during which you might host a session<br />

in relation to your topic, or participate in the sessions of others. After the<br />

first round each group gives a content resume to the other groups, and<br />

then a second round of sessions begins, either growing out of a previous<br />

session or starting afresh. The whole point is to come without notes or<br />

preparation and to work with what is collectively brought in the form of<br />

experience, inquiry and the passion of the moment.<br />

This session lasts 1hr 45mins. The iterative and developing nature of Open<br />

Space necessitates participants to stay throughout. So, come prepared to<br />

engage with the ELT issues that fire you and others up (mobile learning,<br />

the flipped classroom, the phonetics of ELF, the politics of language<br />

teaching….) and leave with new perspectives, new contacts and a new ELT<br />

conference methodology.<br />
