MaWSIG meets SPELT & NELTA: Materials promoting learner autonomy in large classes with limited resources

Brief summary of the SIG event

Join IATEFL Materials Writing and Prof. Zakia Sarwar & Dr. Ganga Ram Gautam for this webinar with two IATEFL Associates, SPELT and NELTA.

In this webinar, teachers from two organizations, Society Of Pakistan English Language Teachers (SPELT) and Nepal English Language Teachers Association (NELTA), will share their successfully used materials and activities in large classes with limited resources. These materials acknowledge the fact that in most developing countries, digital learning facilities are either scarce or erratic. The materials are designed to encourage autonomy and self-esteem in learners as well as relating these fun learning materials and activities to their own educational contexts. This results in nurturing a positive “can do” attitude in learners, as they are exposed to meaningful language learning activities, even without a multitude of resources.
