TEACHING ENGLISH: COMMUNICATION, CREATIVITY, CLIL AND AI
May 24 - 28, 2027 (Monday to Friday)
The course has two main strands:
1 Helping teachers to feel more confident in English by developing their own communicative fluency and accuracy in the use of English. This will be achieved through the participation in various task-based interactive activities, followed up by feedback and language upgrading. Post-activity tasks will often include reflection on the activities and techniques experienced in this strand, and their applicability to participants’ own classrooms (Strand 2)
2 Exploring some of the techniques and activity-types that can be used in participants’ own classrooms, including a focus on using English for CLIL and another on some classroom activities supported by Artificial intelligence.4
