Description This two day workshop will explore how to plan a unit. In the beginning, we will discuss how to plan a summative assessment while answering the questions "What is our big goal so we can plan appropriately?" and "Is this appropriate for the proficiency level of our students?" Then, participants will find resources to use during the unit. We will delve into how to plan both input and output activities that maximize the use of each resource and are also communicative. We will wrap up with how to give feedback to students that is sustainable for teachers during the unit and post-assessment . Throughout the workshop, we will discuss second language acquisition principles that can inform teachers' decisions. This workshop will also include practical examples that teachers can use during any unit.  |
