SESSIONS

1.1 Primary languages - where are we now?This session will present key findings from research, together with suggestions from practice nationally. It will consider major challenges still facing us as we seek to implement the National Languages Strategy and indicate how we are making progress towards 2010.Shirley Kliment-Temple, Language College Community Co-ordinator, Stoke-on-Trent and Dr Cynthia Martin, Institute of Education, Reading

1.2 Motivating language learners - tried and tested strategiesUsing songs, Brain Gym, cross-curricular projects, games and ICT, even the most reluctant of language learners will soon find themselves tapping their feet, clapping their hands and joining in! Come along and join in yourself in this interactive session. Be prepared to have fun.Paul Keogh MBE, Teacher of the Year 2003/04, Head of Languages, King James’s School, Knaresborough

2.1 Innovative ways of using ICT for Spanish teachingThis session attempts to explore ways of using ICT in the teaching of Spanish in years 7-13. It is hoped that the ideas are different without being outlandish and that all are within the technical scope of a ‘normal’ teacher.Nick Mair, Dulwich College, London

2.2 The motivational potential of SpanishNottingham Trent University has provided a number of opportunities for learning Spanish in the local community, to groups from pre-school children to adults with various disabilities. The speakers discuss the appeal of Spanish and how it has been used to motivate learners, using innovative approaches. They suggest how these can be adapted for use by other teachers.Mercedes Carbayo-Abengozar, Senior Lecturer in Spanish at Nottingham Trent University and Jenny Norris, Manager of the ALLEGRO Project

Session 4 La inmigración en EspañaEn esta sesión intentaremos describir el fenómeno de la inmigración en España: sus comienzos, su evolución y los últimos acontecimientos que están teniendo lugar en estos momentos. Desde la aplicación de la última ley sobre inmigración a los problemas fronterizos en Ceuta y Melilla, ciudades españolas enclavadas en el Norte de África.Javier Pablos Pachón, Asesor Técnico/Language Adviser, Consjería de Educación, London

Session 5 Servicios de la ConsejeríaEsta sesión pretende informar de los recursos que la Consejería de Educación tiene a disposición de los profesores de español.
