Research paper writing remains an uninteresting and unexciting activity for many university students. They may not have realized its indispensable value in their respective disciplines and target workplaces. Hence, teachers must provide more enticing and more motivating classroom-based writing tasks to spur students’ interest in producing varied academic texts.
This session looks at how language teachers at any level can use the broad theoretical concepts of communicative competence, sociocultural theory, and speaking principles to enhance interaction. Together, we will examine specific principles of teaching speaking and show how to adapt these principles in your classroom. Workshop led by David Chiesa, English Language Fellow.
