  J
ust using the textbook gets boring for both students and teachers, but preparing handouts nearly on a daily basis is a time consuming activity for the instructor.  Let's think beyond the textbook and the handouts by sharing fun activities which
get the students using what they know and practicing what they have learned, but avoiding the textbook.
  Come meet new colleagues and hear practical and proven suggestions you can use!  Ideas from all languages are welcome - even ideas that do not seem immediately applicable to another language can spark creativity or be adapted effectively.
  Presentations will be limited to 3-5 minutes.  Your
presentation will be more effective if you invite audience members to participate and actually "do" the classroom activities you share.  In other words, don't just "tell" and discuss theory; rather, "show" and "include" the audience in hands-on activities!  Wylie 015 is fully equipped with computer, Internet and video resources.
  The focus will be "Thinking Beyond the Textbook", but other topics are not excluded...

  assisted language learning)
