TTEd SIG PCE, Harrogate 2014

2013 was an active year for TTEd SIG. We were involved in several events in different parts of the world (Beijing- China, Mugla – Turkey) and our PCE at Liverpool was a success. Our Newsletters reached our members, our Facebook account/ blog are very active and we are working very hard to make Harrogate 2014 PCE a great success with our celebrity speaker TESSA WOODWARD who will be with us all day long. We invite you to attend TTEd PCE at Harrogate:

“The Basics and Beyond: A day of trainer development”

The day will be lead by Tessa Woodward, the founder of this SIG, and will alternate 30 minute slots of presentation with 45 minute slots of group work and discussion so that participants can learn from each other and make sure that the day is relevant to their own needs. The topics floated in Tessa’s part of the day will include:

-Establishing communication and terminology with teacher trainers, teacher educators, and mentors in differing settings,

-Core roles and tasks,

-Different ways of doing our core tasks, building a repertoire of process options,

-Different supervisory models and how these affect terminology, core tasks and process options,

-Teacher observation sheets analysed according to supervisory model,

After lunch, in the session open to IATEFL TTEd SIG committee members, Burcu Tezcan will give a choice of one out of the following two topics:

-1. To alleviate the anxiety of those unused to spending a day with low or no new technology, she will offer a stand-alone session on: ‘Learning technologies and affective elements of language teaching from TT perspective’

-2. Alternatively, she will offer a set of case studies/scenarios for participants to discuss. These will be based on real live notes gathered, with permission, and kept anonymously, from observations conducted over the last three years at her institution.

‘Discussion of teaching observation notes’

We will finish with

– Training session analysis.

All welcome!
