Imagine you were put in a situation in which all your training, experience and instincts were to be set aside – and, yes, I mean HAD to be set aside because you had fought your corner for the communicative method but eventually got the answer: “There will be a shed load of mixed ability students in a stuffy lecture-hall-type room where you can neither monitor nor do listening, due to lack of audio facilities.
In other words, you've been asked to basically lecture on specialised English and test the students at the end.
Is there …. eh, would there be, anything you could do to make this even nearly work for (at least some of) the students?
T's for, ahem, cough, cough, a friend. |
