CLASS WEBINAR FOR PROFESSIONALS Spring 2012
Sunday, May 27, 2012
8:00-9:00PM ET; 5:00pm-6:00pm PST
Presenter: Dr. Yulan Lin
Topic: A Balanced Skills-Getting and Skills-Using Lesson Planning
This session aims to answer the age-old question "Why do students progress so slowly and produce so little, when we work so hard and teach so much?" We will explore the root cause of this, which lies in the imbalance between designing language-learning and language-using activities. This session will outline ways to design a lesson that is well balanced and well sequenced through skills-getting and skills-using activities to maximize student outcomes, even when working with time constraints. Save your space please Register now!
*** Only CLASS 2012 active members will be accept for all Webinar provided by CLASS. *** If your are new to CLASS, join us. If you an not an active 2012 member, please login to renew your membership here. |
