The Use of L1 in EMI<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people consider that using the students\u2019 first language in the English Medium Instruction (EMI) classroom to be wrong. However, there are many arguments for incorporating it, even if these might at first seem counterintuitive. In this session we will establish what we mean by EMI and its varied context, we will then look at the benefits of using the first language, and see how it can best be incorporated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Session N2. Assessing Global Skills<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For learners to succeed in the 21st century they need to develop a set of global skills which enable them to go beyond what the traditional school subjects can offer. The incorporation of global skills is to some degree already present in most ELT classrooms. However, if we really wish to promote and develop global skills in our learners we need to be clear about what successful use of these skills looks like and how we can assess them. This session addresses these issues and identifies how you can incorporate these into your current teaching practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide\" style=\"grid-template-columns:24% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-1.jpg 360w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-1-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-1-190x158.jpg 190w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-1-280x233.jpg 280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ushapa Fortescue<\/strong>&nbsp;is a Graduate of Manchester Metropolitan University, has a CELTA, a Teacher Training certificate for the Post 16 sector and is a certified trainer for the Oxford Teachers&#8217; Academy courses.<br>With over 18 years of varied teaching experience both in the UK and abroad, the combination of qualifications means that in the UK she has taught in statuary primary and secondary schools, post 16 adult education, private language schools, Further Education Colleges and UK Universities.\n\n<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 26%\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2.jpg 400w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2-55x55.jpg 55w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2-190x190.jpg 190w, https:\/\/englishbookgeorgia.com\/blogebg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-2-280x280.jpg 280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Erika Osv\u00e1th<\/strong><strong>,<\/strong>&nbsp;MEd in Maths, DTEFLA, is a freelance teacher, teacher trainer, materials writer and co-author with Edmund Dudley of Mixed Ability Teaching (Into the Classroom series, OUP).
