Goal 4: Quality Education

This course gives students an opportunity to explore how to teach the aspects of English that current research suggests being important for intelligibility. The course is a combination of instructor-led discussions and practical workshops. Students get familiarised with recent developments in research-based L2 pedagogy and learn how to apply this knowledge into practice: selecting, modifying and developing teaching materials and learning activities.
