"Teaching (and Learning!) English as a Life Skill"
As modern foreign language professionals, we hear more and more that a modern course concept needs to simultaneously target our modern learners’ language needs and provide a range of professional, academic and social/ personal skills that learners will need in order to succeed in the 21st century. Does this sound like a new challenge to you? Or perhaps as an opportunity to enhance the value of English teaching – both within your institution and to the market outside?
I do hope that after my session you will think it is the latter. My aim is [a] to offer a new rationale for selecting our teaching content to meet the needs of 21st century learners, big and small, and [b] to suggest a few ideas for how to exploit that attractive content in ways that will build learners’ higher order skills - through, with and in English - as a vital instrument of success in their life in the language classroom and way beyond. With lots of practical illustration, as usual, in the form of activity ideas and samples of modern teaching materials for you to try out.
