Happy 2024 everyone!
It’s the beginning of a new year, and ELTABB’s most important event, the Annual General Meeting, is rolling along!
So join us on 16 March for an engaging ELT presentation, vote in the new ELTABB Board and have lunch with your ELTABB colleagues and friends.
We’ll kick off the event with an inspiring talk with our guest speaker, Sandy Millin:
“How to write better quality materials for your learners”
Abstract
If you’re anything like me, you’ve produced a lot of materials for your learners, whether that’s a worksheet, a PowerPoint presentation, or a video. You’ve also had very little training in materials writing, and have learnt what you know by trial and error, with the occasional bit of feedback from learners, other teachers or maybe even an editor.
This is why I put together a competency framework specifically dedicated to materials writing for language learning. In this session, we’ll look at what the framework is and how you can use it to produce better quality materials for your learners.
