“Meet the modern learner – how to teach and reach the new generation of learners”

Modern learners expect learning that is personalised, relevant, and interactive. In this session, we will look at the characteristics of the new generation of students and explore different ways of using technology to teach and reach the modern learners. We will discuss how to adapt your pedagogy to meet the needs of your digital students, help them learn how they learn best and give them voice and choice in their learning process.

“Lessons that really work – how to make your students flourish”

Learning a language is not linear. Learners go through different phases when their learning goes smoothly and moments when they get stuck. What I have noticed throughout my teaching career, learners can get discouraged by the downs. However, with proper tools and well-designed lessons we can help them to overcome the challenges and give them a lot of support in developing as learners.

“Assessment as part of a learning journey”

Learning is a journey, but not an easy one. There are tests, mentors, friends, and foes along the way. All important, all to serve a purpose. All aimed at helping students to progress. Assessment plays a key role in this process, and when introduced appropriately, helps rather than hinders progress. Join us to discover the possibilities of the Pearson assessment portfolio and find the best fit for your teaching reality.
