Szczególnej uwadze polecamy sesję plenarną, którą poprowadzi Jenny Dooley (prezes wydawnictwa Express Publishing, autorka i współautorka wielu podręczników) 

Tytuł sesji: TEACHING IN THE PAST OR TEACHING IN THE PRESENT?

What exactly does it mean to be a teacher in the 21st century? Have we really embraced the latest skills required to educate students in the modern world? How are we really facilitating communication in the classroom? Do our instructional materials reflect our values? How are we guiding our learners to use their creativity and think outside the box?
Helping our students evolve and flourish in an inquiring and secure learning environment is mandatory. In the new era of education, simply teaching to the test is inadequate. In this session, we shall explore activities designed not only to prepare students for the real world but also to make the learning process an enjoyable and intriguing experience!

Równie gorąco polecamy sesję, którą poprowadzi George Kokolas (dyrektor akademicki w wydawnictwie Express Publishing i trener nauczycieli)

 

Tytuł sesji: POSITIVE EDUCATION FOR BEGINNERS

Negative feelings and demotivation are a daily part of our classroom lives... Positive Education is not simply a bunch of theories asking people to “feel great against adversity”
but a thoroughly scientific, long-implemented educational framework through the application of which teachers and students can flourish and find encouragement when
they feel stuck or demotivated. The speaker will provide the reason behind using Positive Education in ELT, demonstrate diverse activities and show that PosEd is something
caught and not taught!
