The natural CELTA - a farewell to language?<br />
Joanna Stansfield & Emma Meade-Flynn<br />
(International House London)<br />
Should language analysis take centre stage on a CELTA course? If you<br />
removed explicit instruction on language systems from input sessions, and<br />
instead focussed on developing practical teaching skills, could trainees<br />
still 'acquire' language awareness? This talk aims to explore these<br />
questions. We will evaluate teaching practice outcomes of this, drawing on<br />
trainer, trainee and student reflection and observations.<br />

Real world tasks to engage and motivate<br />
Louise Pullen & Dan Jones (University of Leicester)<br />
This talk shares our experience of how real world tasks can be used in an<br />
EAP context. These tasks allow students to develop confidence, language<br />
and skills in their specific academic area. We will describe how to set up a<br />
poster presentation event in a university context and demonstrate how this<br />
can respond to students’ specific academic needs.<br />
