Workshop info
The materials that we use in the classroom are sometimes created by people who live in a completely different part of the world or have a completely different culture or lifestyle to the learners we teach. Even if materials are locally produced by others or by ourselves, they might not speak to the realities of learners’ lives. In this workshop, we will look at how to adapt, create and use materials in ways which make them more relevant to learners and therefore more engaging and useful.
When: 9th December, 5:00pm – 6:00pm CET
Where: Online/ZOOM
