Enhancing Language Learning through ICT
This session has already taken place. The dates below are the next available runs of the same course.
About this course
Hand a language classroom a set of apps and the lesson often just moves the same drill onto a screen — multiple choice with a different font. The order matters: the language goal comes first, and the tool is chosen afterwards to serve it. It is a small distinction with a large practical consequence for…
Methodology
Days 2 to 4, one skill each, repeat the loop set up on Day 1 — write the language goal, choose a tool only if it adds something, and test whether it did.
Participants build one lesson plan for their own class, adding a part each day, and try part of it on colleagues before it goes near a class.
Every task can be done on paper or with free versions of tools, so what you build works whatever your school has or allows.
What you'll take home
Write a language goal first, and choose a tool, or no tool, to serve it.
Plan the blend of a vocabulary lesson: what happens in class and what happens online.
Design a speaking or listening activity, and a way to check that students actually used the language.
Design a shared writing task on a class platform or shared board, with a safeguarding note for online interaction.
Check a lesson plan against a goal-first checklist and plan your first lesson.
