PRON<br />
Pronunciation: what to do before you do sounds<br />
Piers Messum (Freelance)<br />
Just as a gardener prepares the ground before planting seeds, it pays to<br />
prepare our students’ mouths before teaching sounds. English speakers<br />
have distinctive ways of controlling their breath, holding the tongue, etc.<br />
With these basic actions and settings, students move out of L1 and even<br />
‘difficult’ sounds then come naturally. We will explore the exercises<br />
needed for this.<br />

Teaching with technology in a classroom without any<br />
Kathryn Smelser (Volkshochschule Peine, Germany)<br />
Are there ways educators can still use technology to enrich their lessons<br />
where none is available? This workshop will share possibilities of<br />
integrating technology into adult classes through a variety of<br />
communicative activities, using electronic resources available outside the<br />
classroom. Participants will perform some of the tasks and collaborate on<br />
creating further activities.<br />
Overcoming challenges for continuous professional development in<br />
teacher education<br />
Marcela Cintra (Associacao Cultura Inglesa, Sao Paulo)<br />
Teacher educators have often faced challenges in promoting autonomy for<br />
teachers’ continuous professional development in ELT to guarantee quality<br />
education. During this presentation, I will discuss issues regarding<br />
accountability, the impact of feedback and the roles of reflection and<br />
collaboration in leading teachers to success in pre-service and in-service<br />
initiatives.<br />

Through the eyes of the teachers: seeing beyond the surface<br />
Meltem Akbulut Yildirmis & Mehtap Ince (Istanbul Sehir University)<br />
This workshop aims to uncover teachers’ constructions of their observed<br />
lessons in the face of major efforts to enhance institutional standards and<br />
teacher accountability. Working together and using the results of our<br />
qualitative study, we will discuss the interplay between developmental and<br />
evaluative observations, and explore if teacher effectiveness is counted as<br />
a ‘fit for purpose’ or a ‘personal boost’.<br />
