Workshops onIntroducing anInterculturalDimension intoTeaching English in China

Hosted by the School of English for Specific Purposes

The purpose in these five workshops is to enable those who teach English as the four skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening to enrich their teaching methods by developing learners’ intercultural competences as well as linguistic and communicative competences. The workshop sessions will respect the four language skills as the starting point and basis, and use a combination of lecture, discussion and pair or group work. Professor Byram will start from existing teaching materials and expect participants to contribute from their experience. There are no ready-made answers to how to enrich and complement existing approaches. So the emphasis will be on participants and Professor Byram himself to produce answers together, which can be the basis for future teaching as well as being useful for the immediate materials that participants use. The workshops will take place in the lecture hall on the 4th floor in the library from March 21 to 26 except March 25 in Room 1147 in BFSU Int’l Building on West Campus.
