Get Thinking about Testing!

A hands-on workshop discussing the best approaches on how you can use the editable test materials which accompany many course materials to build and use in class. This will then look specifically at providing key information and systematic support for testing BES and DSA students.

Webs of Words: issues in vocabulary learning and teaching at B1 and B2

This presentation will highlight some of the key issues identified in recent research and projects such as Cambridge English Profile related to best practice in vocabulary teaching and learning. We will look at different ideas relating to knowing, encountering, using and remembering words in a second language and consider practical implications of these ideas and activites in helping B1 and B2 learners, in particular, develop a wide vocabulary.

There will be a short welcome and registration to open the seminars and a chance to see materials and talk to the speakers during the breaks between workshops.
