In our second session, we saw how task-light activities focused on emergent language can promote a less linear learning experience for teachers and students.

We also looked at the relationship between this and real-life language use: if interaction is always built around pre-defined exponents, we aren’t preparing our students for complex language events outside the classroom (or developing fully as teachers).

In this third and final session, we’ll complete our journey from linear planning to holistic practice. We’ll explore what happens to us as people when we listen and are listened to. And we’ll see how a dynamic learning environment can give students a voice to tell their story in their words.
