Introducing tablets and leading teachers toward effective use
Ryan Parmee (British Council Qatar)
Does your institution encourage the use of tablets to support TEFL? Or, are
you thinking of introducing them? This session highlights steps taken to
introduce tablets to enhance communicative teaching practices. I will
outline our teacher training programme and a basic 3-point planning tool
designed to support teachers to integrate tablets into their lessons with no
focus on apps.
Literature, Media & Cultural Studies Special Interest Group Open
Forum
The LMCS SIG Open Forum is an opportunity for members and prospective
members to meet the SIG committee. We will talk about the LMCS SIG’s
activities over the past year and discuss future plans, which include an
event on Creativity in English Language Teaching which will take place in
May in Oxford, and our plans for the IATEFL 2016 PCE on Shakespeare in
the English Classroom. You don't need to be an LMCS SIG member to come
along, find out more, make suggestions and meet others.
