Close encounters of the third kind. Developing cultural awareness in adult courses
By Ileana Colaneri, Julieta Parente and Mariana Stoddart
What motivates an adult learner? How difficult is it to work without a coursebook? How do we make it happen? In this talk we will be addressing these and other related questions based on our experiences working with adults in a post-coursebook context within and beyond the boundaries of the classroom.
When? Saturday March 5th – 10 to 11:30 am
