English360 - Classroom and learning diversity International House

DESCRIPTION

The English360 web-based learning platform is easy-to-use and takes a revolutionary approach to materials development, course design and delivery. English teachers can deliver out-of-the-box courses or tailor personalised learning programmes to respond efficiently to wide-ranging learner needs, diverse learning styles, contexts and classrooms. This presentation will look at practical ways of: benefitting from the use of learning technologies and new media; taking teachers’ own lesson plans, activities and resources, and combining these with Cambridge content to deliver versatile blended learning programmes using a revolutionary learning platform; focusing on, and seamlessly integrating, learner-generated material with relevant authentic resources; embracing new roles and effectively using a range (open or private) communication channels to support and extend language learning beyond the physical classroom; using time-saving administrative functions such as class scheduling and attendance recording, and easy monitoring of learner progress and results; addressing common challenges faced when guiding learners towards achieving their personal objectives.
