'Making distance learning fun, engaging and interactive'

An IATEFL webinar presented by Mena Kamal

With the continuing changes in school and learner needs, most teachers/tutors have had to adapt and implement remote learning strategies. While distance learning isn’t a perfect substitute for in-class instructional interaction, there are lots of ways to keep learners engaged while learning from home. Depending on the language learning techniques, lesson plans and the EdTech you are using and their features; you can create a whole new way of teaching that is guaranteed to make lessons more objective, more interactive and even fun for you and your learners.

In this webinar we will:

  • Provide practical ways to keep learners motivated and interactive while learning;
  • highlight some online learning strategies for classrooms and schools;
  • provide you with tips and best practices for making eLearning content come alive using visuals, images, games and animations;
  • show you how to use language learning apps to spice up your language learning classes;
  • demonstrate how to keep learners on task, help them complete guided questions or worksheets and submit their answers as an assignment or project.
