Скачать или смотреть Blended learning: Problems and Prospects at the Higher Level

Face-to-face classrooms are places where teachers and higher-level learners can react moment-by-moment to the demands of noticing important features of the language and to the conditions of natural spoken interaction. But what happens in fully online blended learning (BL) materials when the online programme becomes both the material and the tutor? In this webinar, Mike McCarthy and Jeanne McCarten, authors of Touchstone 2nd Ed, look briefly at the general issues involved in BL programmes and current trends in BL. They then focus on particular problems in creating a fully blended programme for higher level learners, especially issues connected with methodology and the teaching of speaking.

Find out more about the fully flexible, adult course Touchstone 2nd ed from Cambridge University Press, which is a six-level English program based on research from the Cambridge English Corpus. Touchstone, along with Viewpoint presentr natural language in authentic contexts, and explicitly develops conversation strategies so learners speak with fluency and confidence. With an abundance of print and digital options you can choose the best way to deliver the course to your students: print, online, or a blend of the two: http://www.cambridge.org/gb/cambridge...
