L019 - Virtual Tea Time · Teachers' think tank - Current Affairs and Esl Tools

This online series provides a virtual room for teachers to speak English, discuss research on ESL-teaching, exchange experiences, reflect on challenges and get 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, even dates might be adapted.
If you like speaking English and communicating with and learning from interesting colleagues, join us.

L046 - NILE meets PHDL: Developing Language Skills with GenAI · Harnessing Generative Artificial Intelligence to help Learners

Much of the current discussion about GenAI in education focuses on whether learners should use it or not. However, many learners are already using it, but may not be doing so as effectively or ethically as they could. In this session we will discuss how GenAI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Bard, etc.) can help learners develop their English language skills, try out lots of practical applications, and consider how teachers can best help learners to use AI as a learning assistant in their English lessons and in their own self-study. There will be lots of discussion, practical activities and reflection.
