2012 Workshops
Giving and getting feedback on both language and skills tasks is a crucial phase of any language lesson. In Feedback Fiesta we'll look at different ways of ensuring learners are motivated and receive meaningful feedback - through the use of games, planned error correction and the feedback PERM. Come and join us and make your feedback phases a fiesta, not a siesta!

The workshop will be held on:

Friday 10th February at 17.30 GMT

Monday 13th February at 17.30 GMT

To sign up click on the time and date you wish to attend and follow the instructions.

The workshop will be led by Neil McMahon, IHWO Coordinator for Resources and a teacher trainer at IH Buenos Aires Teacher Training.

Tech needed to attend: A reliable internet connection free of background noise and a mic/headphones headset.

Headphones are imperative to avoid feedback for your fellow participants.

Recent Feedback

"Sharing your experiences is always something positive as it often doesn’t happen in the daily work situation, as everybody is just too busy." "I learnt I enjoyed working online, it was the first course I had done like this and it was better than expected"
"I learnt loads – particularly useful were tips on classroom management techniques from other teachers to use with students with special needs (and in fact all students!)"
"I particularly liked input sessions on phonology, vocabulary, discourse analysis and all 4 skills. These sessions were especially informative and accessible and proved to be of immediate use."
"I think it was a very good course, hard work but very useful. I can see it not only in my teaching, but in the comments I make on the lessons I observe and in the lesson planning sessions with inexperienced teachers."
"excellent course notes: succinct, informative, helpful"
"We had great tutors and it was a pleasure to work with them. If I had any questions, our tutors answered them very carefully and in detail."
"I am extremely enthusiastic about this course. I was told that the course was good by a former course participant, but it has surpassed all expectations."
"I just want to say thanks to everyone who took part in creating this course and those involved in doing this particular COLT. I have benefited a lot from it."
"This is a great course that I would recommend to anyone even vaguely intrigued by what online learning is about…or totally adverse to it (I am sure they would change their mind!)"
