L034 - No Child left Behind in the English Classroom · Workshop for Mixed Ablility Classes

One of the biggest challenges in English classes is teaching mixed ability levels within one class. This seminar attempts to give insight into the challenges, with a practical approach of how one can teach the same material at different levels.
The seminar is divided into two parts: The first will be a practical input with learning by doing. The participants will then go back to school to try out the ideas covered. The second part will be a practical workshop, looking at the outcome, together with further support and ideas on how the challenges can be mastered in the English classroom.

L036 - Digitale Grundbildung · Wie gelingt's im Englisch Unterricht?

This practical talk will provide an overview of edtech myths, misconceptions, but also focus on the great chances of the digital masterplan presenting hands-on toolkits for smartphone aficionados. We'd like to invite also edtech critics who would like to explore the full potentials of smartphones, tablets and digital tools without the bling-bling tech fuss. Which trends are promising? Which innovations are digital voodoo? What should an EFL-teacher know?

Languages: mainly English, German

L064 - Learning Styles

Have you ever wondered what makes students tick or why some activities work better in some classes than in others? Part of the secret may be their individual learning styles. The workshop will begin with background information on styles and surveys to determine participants’ own preferences. The main part will consist of trying out different activities which cover a wide range of language practice and can be used with different levels designed to appeal to different styles of learning. We will finish off with reflection on the impact of the activities and implementation in the classroom.

L095 - Democracy is not a spectator sport · Workshop

"If not us, who?" is a rallying call that can be heard across the U.S.A., encouraging Americans to get involved politically while advancing a vision based on the common good. Organizing themselves in a people-powered effort to take back their democracy, they have been raising their voices in public squares, holding their representatives accountable, and going door-to-door to meet their neighbors. We will look at how grass-roots organizations use a variety of strategies to persuade the general public, such as empowering people to participate in the democratic process or framing the conflict.

L903 - Getting Back on Track · Motivating tricks and brush up techniques for the new school year

The main emphasis will be on our own speaking abilities. There will be sufficient input of ideas and speaking activities, which can also be done in the class at different levels. We will indulge in small talk on various topics, express personal opinion on current topics, exchange practical tasks used in today's English classroom and enjoy outdoor and indoor activities to motivate pupils to talk. Learning by Doing is our motto, and it will be shown how very little preparation is required: minimum input, maximum output!
