It's all fun and games learning language through play

2 hours
Online Workshop

Course Overview

In today's information and activity intense world, engagement is one of a teacher's biggest challenges. We take a look at the importance of the fun factor in class through a series of hands-on activities and games. We will reflect on what we have experienced and see what the dangers are, if any, of having too much fun in class.

Course Objectives

The main objective of the session is to provide teachers with different takes on familiar and known activities that incorporate that extra bit of fun by getting students out of their chairs and their hands busy. We also target the use of digital aids through the use of video games for language learning.

Learning Outcomes

Course Procedures

The session will provide participants with the opportunity to experience a series of fun and engaging activities and get them to compare their activities to their more conventional counterparts. Reflection will take place where we will discuss the difference felt throughout the activities and the effects of the "fun element" on the learning process.

Assessment Procedure

After each segment activity time will be allocated to getting the participants to reflect on target audience, effectiveness, and engagement. At the end of the session, in groups, participants will be given a selection of standard classroom activities and provide recommendations on how to adapt them.
