Course Outline:
This webinar will consider how repurposing and extending learning and knowledge gained across existing curricula, for tasks that foster presentational and discursive skills, can develop oracy and support integrated language acquisition – by enabling learners to:
- create and deliver presentations and discussions that further their ability to convey information systematically and coherently
- explore and develop their vocabulary in relation to subject areas they have pre-existing interests and knowledge in
- extend and build-upon the breadth and depth of knowledge gained in other parts of the curriculum.
