TeachingEnglish newsletter | | | Welcome to the TeachingEnglish newsletter! We've selected a range of practical resources to help you in the classroom and ideas to help you with your professional development. We hope you find them useful.
And don't forget this lesson plan for primary students designed to celebrate International Day of Peace on 21 September.
The TeachingEnglish team | | Five on 5 - five webinars to celebrate World Teachers' Day | October 5 is World Teachers' Day, and to celebrate we are running a series of five webinars during the day. Starting at 08.00 and running until 17.00 UK time, you will have the chance to take part in discussions ranging from multilingualism, 'native speakerism' and neuroscience in education to professional development for teacher educators and effective teaching in low-resource classrooms.
The event is completely free and we will also be offering a discount on our self-access modules to all teachers during the week, from 1-5 October 2018. | | | Short projects to get them talking | There's nothing like a group project to get your adult and teenage students talking. One particularly successful format is based on our love of lists. Students in small groups work towards compiling a top five. Read more about the advantages of short projects and examples of topics you can use in this short article. | | | OLLReN online conference 2018 | The OLLReN annual online conference takes place on Thursday 4 October 2018. Organised by the IATEFL Learning Technologies SIG, Laureate International Universities and Cambridge University Press, the conference features twelve engaging talks on the theme of Research into Using Technology for Language Learning. This promises to be a valuable and useful event for anyone working with learning technologies in education. | | | BACK TO THE 'FUTURELEARN' | Today, online professional development can be as advantageous as face-to-face. A massive open online course (MOOC) learning platform called FutureLearn and its practices prove this fact. Attending a FutureLearn MOOC can foster active learning, peer learning and getting instant feedback in one's learning environment. In this post, Ceyda Basmaci takes a look at the benefits of the popular MOOC learning platform called FutureLearn and its practices. | | | 'September' by Fiona Mauchline | 'I was fifty this year. Not a great achievement, it's just one of those things that happens. But when it does, the phrase "life's too short" rings ever truer.' In this reflective post, Fiona Mauchline - a busy writer, teacher-trainer and teacher - describes the challenges of making changes and how she realised she could do less, but do it better. | | | | | | | |
