L053 - Virtual Tea Time · Teachers’ think tank – updates on current affairs and esl tools

This online series provides a virutal room for teachers to speak English, discuss research on esl teaching, exchange experiences, challenges, tips and tricks for the classroom. There is always a ’topic of interest’ and material to try out in class. Occasional ’surprise guests’ add an extra kick to the sessions. Participants are also welcome to join only one or two of the meetings. Flexible participation is fine, too, and new discussion of dates within the group possible. If you like speaking English, join us.

L056 - NILE meets PHDL: Spelling Myths and Enchantments

Everybody seems to have something to say about English spelling… or the teaching of it. But how much of that talk is really true? And how much of it provides teachers with practical solutions to the problems of students who struggle with spelling but cannot pass their exams without it? Not much, unfortunately! In this seminar we will explore some common myths about our spelling and how we can really help learners improve. We will look at some multi-sensory activities that you can use with learners of any age.

We invite all interested teachers who would like to expand their digital assessment toolbox.

L073 - Good texts require adequate prompts · Designing writing tasks for tests in lower grade

Assessing students’ written performances can sometimes be challenging. However, adequate tasks can make text production as well as assessment more successful.
This course looks at different text types students are required to produce, categories being assessed, and, most importantly, the creation of meaningful tasks which enable your students to show their level of English, giving them the opportunity to make use of a (wide) variety of structures and vocabulary. Sample prompts will be presented and analysed.

L087 - Narrative Didactics - Was sind Narrative (nicht)? · Einführung in grundlegende narratologische Konzepte

Geschichten und Narrative bergen ein enormes Potential für den interkulturellen, kommunikativen und authentischen Sprachenunterricht, das heute noch meist ungenutzt bleibt. Dieser Vortrag erörtert die Begriffe „Narrativ“ und „Geschichte“ auf theoretischer und praktischer Ebene und aus literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Sicht. Insbesondere wird dabei das Spannungsfeld zwischen kultureller Repräsentation in Büchern und der materiellen Realität der Schülerinnen und Schüler besprochen.

L102 - Narrative Didactics - Let's act! · Exploring narratives through performative conventions

This workshop illustrates how pupils can become actively engaged in exploring and understanding narratives and, by extension, lifeworld issues such as deforestation.
The course asks participants to experience themselves how to promote reading for students through a new approach termed the Literature-Enactment-Process (LEP) where students can critically access and comprehend stories and associated topics of inquiry through a range of phases, but most importantly through performative conventions.

L114 - NILE meets PHDL: 21st Century Skills revisited · Post-pandemic considerations on soft skills in ELT

At the turn of the century, scholars and practitioners started giving a lot of thought to the skills the new century would demand. On this basis, methodological approaches and contents were developed.
Twenty years later, the Covid-19 pandemic broke out and lockdown posed new challenges on educators. How has this scenario impacted on ELT classrooms? Have the so-called 21st century skills helped us face unprecedented circumstances? Have our priorities changed?
We will reflect on these questions and discuss ways in which we may bring these considerations into our classrooms.

L905 - ERASMUS+ CLIL Experience in Galway 2023 · Wie unterrichte ich mein Fach auf Englisch?

Ziel dieser CLIL-Fortbildung ist, dass die teilnehmenden Lehrkräfte aus AHS und BHS lernen, das eigene Fach auf Englisch zu unterrichten.
Die teilnehmenden Lehrkräfte können die erarbeiteten Unterrichtssequenzen unmittelbar nach Rückkehr in ihrem Unterricht verwenden und in den einzelnen Schul-Arges den Kolleg:innen weitergeben. Da vom NILE (Norwich Institute of Language Education) auch sehr viel digitales Unterrichtsmaterial verfügbar ist, ist dies eine sehr praktikable Methode.

L907 - 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!
