The theme for 2022 is #BreakTheBias. To celebrate, we have two live events: a Facebook Live Q&A and a webinar on Tuesday 8 March. We also have a number of resources you can use with your primary, secondary and adult students to celebrate, and a podcast epsiode looking at how teachers can ensure their teaching is gender fair. Find out more Women and girls in science In this lesson for teenagers and adults, students read an article about some of the reasons why there are fewer girls and women interested in working in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and what's happening to encourage equality in these fields. Students will have a chance to evaluate ways of doing this, as well as reading about alternative approaches. Read more Episode 7: How can I integrate the Sustainable Development Goals into my teaching? In episode 7, we hear from three ELT writers who contributed articles to the British Council publication 'Integrating global issues in the creative English language classroom'. We then speak to Margarita Kosior about how these ideas can be effectively contextualised in the classroom. Listen The Sustainable Development Goals This lesson plan for primary learners is based on activities from the British Council publication 'Integrating global issues in the creative English language classroom'. Learners discover what each goal means, and decide which ones they think are the most important and why. They also design an icon for one or more of the goals, which they share with the class. Go to the plan Embedding pronunciation into your lesson plan In this webinar on 10 March, Viktor Carrasquero plans a lesson in 'real time', focusing on ways in which pronunciation can be included. You will be able to see some general guidelines you can apply when planning for pronunciation work, as well as practical ideas you can readily implement to work on pronunciation reactively.
