Introduction
During the workshop, we will take a look at some basic mnemonic techniques followed by the theory of dual cognition and how it can be applied to learning foreign language vocabulary via Atkinson’s Keyword Method.
Participants will have the opportunity to use the method to learn some Russian vocabulary and then work on their own keywords for their learners before engaging in a discussion on how to use them in the classroom.
Finally, we will take a more general look at what makes an effective classroom image and how we can exploit images in the classroom followed by a group exercise where participants will create their own images to illustrate some common language issues.
This Workshop is included with PRO Membership.
Preparing for the Workshop
Our Masterclass workshops are typically delivered in 90 mins.
At Gallery Teachers, we endorse the philosophy of building on your previous knowledge and experience as opposed to just imparting knowledge on you.
Therefore, in order to prepare you for the webinar and help you activate what you already know about the topic, we will suggest two to four reflective questions for you to consider before you join the event.
You will also be given the opportunity to post your reflections, along with any questions you may already have at the pre-watching stage, to the discussion forum.
The reflective questions, as well as ideas and shared experiences posted to the forum by attendees, will be used in the real-time Q&A session in order to generate an engaging and meaningful discussion, involving the presenter and teachers from around the world.
After the event, the forum discussion will take on a life of its own and teachers will be encouraged to continue posting their experiences, reflections and questions related to the topic of the webinar. So, if you feel strongly about the topic, we will make it possible for you to take the discussion beyond the scheduled workshop and continue sharing your ideas with like-minded teachers and teacher trainers from other countries

Reviews
Practical memory tools for any language learners
Enjoyed the memory techniques and will share them with my students as a tool to remember new words and phrases inside and outside the classroom. I’m also going to try the techniques for my own language learning!
Good for grammar, not just vocabulary
I was surprised to understand that images can be used to teach grammar, as well as vocabulary
I like it
One hour and a half flew away. I liked this webinar!
Techniques that work to learn any language
The things I have learned in this webinar can be applied to learning any language and could be useful also to remember long lists.
Very good workshop
I enjoyed this workshop very much. These techniques are very simple to implement in our classes, yet very powerful.
