Bring iPads into the classroom! Bring students out of the classroom!
These days, there is no shortage of creative approaches to transforming school learning, and yet -
the maxim 'teachers teach the way they were taught' still holds true, at least as a stereotype.
Why is that the case? And how do we tell a short-lived fad from true innovation?
In this Written English course, we will consider the merits of various non-traditional
approaches to education and the obstacles in their way.


This course forms one half of the compulsory module ang311: Integrated Language Skills.
The module is assessed via a portfolio and the assessment requirements here are a take-home essay
and a written language test. The grade will be added to the result from Spoken English.
Homework assignments as required by the lecturer will count towards active participation.
