current system of pronunciation teaching is based on several faulty assumptions
and as a result our pronunciation teaching methodology is in an evolutionary
cul de sac. For example, pronunciation work is (still) a kind of add-on rather
than being fully integrated into everything that happens in the classroom. And
behavourist assumptions are still alive and well although perhaps in a more
colourful and usable form. I will propose some contrasting assumptions that
could free us up to see the experience of pronunciation differently and to
imagine different learning activities with different outcomes. I will
illustrate some of these activities.</span><span face=""Gill Sans Nova",sans-serif" style="font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

by generating too much information for us to access, let alone process and
digest, in the little spare time we have for reading, youths do not
usually demonstrate any keenness on reading long texts, articles, or literature
in their mother togue, even worse in a foreign language like English. They
prefer to have a look at titles or read short texts by people summarizing or
commenting on either fiction or non-fiction texts. Therefore, now it is more necessary than ever before
that teachers should guide learners so that they develop into strategic readers
or, in other words, effective,
self-regulated readers.</span></span></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPa5CzRoDMzbV866Opb1xg2kCdvXVwxg4v3VVKH-A-xfeN0MMR7f57UauUniDVzvAa5qbkBDSJJPKJJw9zQaZ5bxK7sn01D3gYDOLMtZu94SyeHmKvYWlKBOGajFSO9Zwgx0KLxZ3OVgL3C2BIaVqpsA1rFlOLbeqTVpeHsMRFyBk8vcpC2Ps0FN5XclI/s2048/Zafi.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1557" data-original-width="2048" height="202" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPa5CzRoDMzbV866Opb1xg2kCdvXVwxg4v3VVKH-A-xfeN0MMR7f57UauUniDVzvAa5qbkBDSJJPKJJw9zQaZ5bxK7sn01D3gYDOLMtZu94SyeHmKvYWlKBOGajFSO9Zwgx0KLxZ3OVgL3C2BIaVqpsA1rFlOLbeqTVpeHsMRFyBk8vcpC2Ps0FN5XclI/w266-h202/Zafi.jpg" width="266" /></a><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span lang="EL" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; text-align: justify;">Μ</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%; text-align: justify;">s Zafi Mandali, <span style="background: white; color: #202124; letter-spacing: .15pt;">holds a BA in

show how responding to these incidents enabled teachers to develop personally and professionally.
These critical incidents were classified as such on the basis of four structural characteristics: they 1)
recount past events, 2) signify significant change in professional knowledge, 3) are treated as formative
thus informing current and future teaching practice, and 4) contain emotionally charged discourse. In
describing past emotional turmoil and ethical dilemmas, the teachers reflected on how the critical
incidents helped them to understand themselves, regulate their emotions and develop resilience.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0IAxsOTXwLcu-p3SsIi0jd1GLe3EMy4JRN9jOzSXU7GLO1t-c_KLhZDYP0EF5vz6Zkih93l7Yn3SItQZOToY6HsODQQZBVF00X-i6N__lmzLDxFZlqbs4hE2QiCIeV0OnGAzwuVcN9IPxp5X1ED7qWsNikbwFyYJjCm8J_Yh7-qvwku8nXEzKWDZP/s1748/4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1240" data-original-width="1748" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0IAxsOTXwLcu-p3SsIi0jd1GLe3EMy4JRN9jOzSXU7GLO1t-c_KLhZDYP0EF5vz6Zkih93l7Yn3SItQZOToY6HsODQQZBVF00X-i6N__lmzLDxFZlqbs4hE2QiCIeV0OnGAzwuVcN9IPxp5X1ED7qWsNikbwFyYJjCm8J_Yh7-qvwku8nXEzKWDZP/s320/4.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Summary </span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">What are Transferrable Skills?

ChatGPT. But did the title make your curious? Why? It may be because hot topics like this create
motivation, particularly intrinsic motivation. In this plenary, we will examine how aspects of motivation
and principles of andragogy (teaching adult learners) affect CPD. We will consider the impact of the
process of change as a factor.
Participants will come away with a better understanding of ways to excite and motivate teachers to
participate in CPD, and suggestions of how AI tools such as ChatGPT can be harnessed to enhance it. </span></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibkpx1UAPPOzjXLxtnRNvqfIpL6M16yW9iNMttPKH-WVpQqjHczUo3jIkdIF_2bBWsqmZoxgzhoEbEZ8WeYwGMvtf8WDl9YM3lmyeFJKYrxcIP-JzLAD03qizwVZ3VEvdI4zGY6JouqIc_mVWNoJTKuVFFo7C3kZPpZqqj7r_RKq9GF3pUBoq7RHjP/s1748/5.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1240" data-original-width="1748" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibkpx1UAPPOzjXLxtnRNvqfIpL6M16yW9iNMttPKH-WVpQqjHczUo3jIkdIF_2bBWsqmZoxgzhoEbEZ8WeYwGMvtf8WDl9YM3lmyeFJKYrxcIP-JzLAD03qizwVZ3VEvdI4zGY6JouqIc_mVWNoJTKuVFFo7C3kZPpZqqj7r_RKq9GF3pUBoq7RHjP/w320-h227/5.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><b>Summary </b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">The Owl Factor assumes that the teaching and learning process is built around exchange and resources.
This process can be narrowed down to what I call the KNOW-SHOW-GROW approach. Teacher and
students know different things. Each one needs to show the other what they know so that they can grow
in the process. This session explores it!</span></div><br /> <p></p>TESOL MACEDONIA-THRACE, NORTHERN GREECEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00196347258422818063noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419758543587203427.post-13800465208859698512023-03-18T06:43:00.005+02:002023-03-28T12:29:52.298+03:00PROGRAMME of the 28th ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE: To TESOL or NOT TO TESOL? <p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyua9FZhadib25l-n1zw6OA_KYxffun1wBPLXOasc8pcib4SZ5s1aRQ0FyHhEjpiSgVax_mNeB5b8my6VowQwXywCmfjrQ7u6tZtCEF6ec2TEKBjEMzgTaDa6PeNzriND6iPsJd2QG0-DJl-2MyVGOVbF6BTCIV4BAf_RwWn8jRJsuTwdkIwFlTZsX/s2000/Conference%20Programme%20TESOL%20MTH%20%20APRIL%202023%20.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2000" data-original-width="1414" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyua9FZhadib25l-n1zw6OA_KYxffun1wBPLXOasc8pcib4SZ5s1aRQ0FyHhEjpiSgVax_mNeB5b8my6VowQwXywCmfjrQ7u6tZtCEF6ec2TEKBjEMzgTaDa6PeNzriND6iPsJd2QG0-DJl-2MyVGOVbF6BTCIV4BAf_RwWn8jRJsuTwdkIwFlTZsX/w319-h452/Conference%20Programme%20TESOL%20MTH%20%20APRIL%202023%20.jpg" width="319" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The final Version of the programme can be found <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OBIyAG5BWWmbIIk1bTazTJwmLrMgcHx1/view?usp=share_link">here</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p>TESOL MACEDONIA-THRACE, NORTHERN GREECEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00196347258422818063noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419758543587203427.post-53166882479408499242023-03-14T13:04:00.012+02:002023-03-14T13:29:49.065+02:00TESOL Macedonia-Thrace, Northern Greece at the Spring 2023 International Publishers Exhibition<h1 style="text-align: left;"> Sunday 19th March 2023 from 10:00-18:00 </h1><p style="text-align: left;"></p><h1 style="text-align: justify;"> International Publishers' Exhibition </h1><h1 style="text-align: justify;"> Thessaloniki, The MET Hotel </h1><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">This Sunday 19/3 we are getting together at the IP Exhibition at the MET Hotel in Thessaloniki.

cooperation with Edpuzzle and hope to see this event becoming an annual one.
Our session is open to all so we will share the link publicly and we are happy
to present our two speakers: our very own Antigoni Melidonioti and Alisa
Linarejos. Antigoni has been a teacher and teacher trainer for years and runs
her own foreign language school in which she likes to experiment with different
methodologies, inclusive teaching and the use of technology. She is also the
Secretary General of our association. Alisa Linarejos is an Edpuzzle coach and
experienced MFL teacher in different countries and grade levels. She loves
learning and sharing ideas with teachers about technology integration to
enhance teaching and learning. At the end of the event some free gifts will be
given, so don't miss our event on Sunday 5th March at 10:30 am to 12:00 (Greek
time).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">The link to access the webinar is </span><a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84360517092" style="text-align: center;" target="_blank"><span style="background: white; color: #001f45; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; letter-spacing: .3pt; line-height: 107%;">https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84360517092</span></a> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Spread the word! </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></p></div><br /><div><br /></div>TESOL MACEDONIA-THRACE, NORTHERN GREECEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00196347258422818063noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8419758543587203427.post-19446757416511146472023-01-30T23:33:00.000+02:002023-01-30T23:33:28.484+02:00Rachel Paling to run February Webinar for Tesol Macedonia-Thrace, Northern Greece.<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPN-j55lbcx2e7ORMQs8dvCPd0np2erX9DdifI1MxNCKQfnS2oWR6oqJMvu_z0LZV0clNWkjFCLEhLl29vAUCD4StXaUilMf41jO6ReuG_LETqZJMQt7p-s2U_JAhE_MolH2BVvB70s_6a9F7ZzyW0lyMCaCgNPireipB1KuNBbPj9KHDF2loWcuVc/s1364/PALING.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1364" data-original-width="1364" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPN-j55lbcx2e7ORMQs8dvCPd0np2erX9DdifI1MxNCKQfnS2oWR6oqJMvu_z0LZV0clNWkjFCLEhLl29vAUCD4StXaUilMf41jO6ReuG_LETqZJMQt7p-s2U_JAhE_MolH2BVvB70s_6a9F7ZzyW0lyMCaCgNPireipB1KuNBbPj9KHDF2loWcuVc/s320/PALING.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><b>February Webinar to be led by </b></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><b> Ms. Rachel Paling </b></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: x-small;">On <span style="color: #2b00fe;"><b>Sunday 12th February 2023 at 10:30 on Zoom</b></span> TESOL Macedonia-Thrace, Northern Greece welcomes Ms Rachel Paling who will be discussing a topic that cannot fail to engage us all. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-fSODZPN3RMxz0-YJx_XhcZbCG8ojrrt0OnQwTD2i1-NQ8wozo04604aKhXA2H8btuleqM_xr5yPjhqtpz4iYKyEWosfpIsBmlgp_BuG6rQ1QREnhXY5FU4y19dDYiEsMTiXFSI-7z1BSNBPgUgsA2XnLiFy6cueyiTLVV-lwT01l0W24CxrFXE51/s2245/FEBRUARY%20EVENT_RACHEL%20PALING%20.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2245" data-original-width="1587" height="374" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-fSODZPN3RMxz0-YJx_XhcZbCG8ojrrt0OnQwTD2i1-NQ8wozo04604aKhXA2H8btuleqM_xr5yPjhqtpz4iYKyEWosfpIsBmlgp_BuG6rQ1QREnhXY5FU4y19dDYiEsMTiXFSI-7z1BSNBPgUgsA2XnLiFy6cueyiTLVV-lwT01l0W24CxrFXE51/w264-h374/FEBRUARY%20EVENT_RACHEL%20PALING%20.png" width="264" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-family: helvetica;">Let's get to know our speaker</span></b></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span data-sheets-userformat="{"2":769,"3":{"1":0},"11":4,"12":0}" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"Rachel founded Efficient Language Coaching in 2008.

But, the great question is “what is metacognition/neuroscience and how we can implement these in practical terms?” In this talk, we will explore the different perspectives and more importantly, how to harness this knowledge to change mindset, transform learning, provoke leaner autonomy, and arouse curiosity. 21st century learning becomes more impregnated with neuroscientific research, but the real question is how to “live” the research in our everyday teaching and learning. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white;

These unquestioned, hold-back practices are simply myths which hinder learning and cause the "jukebox effect". This presentation explains how neuroscience findings can dispel these myths and through a "transition pedagogy" may lead to a more effective and brain-friendly pedagogy. </span></span></div><div class="gmail_default"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><br /></span></div><div class="gmail_default"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">We will be very happy to see a large audience greet these two renowned speakers. </span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms", sans-serif;"><br /><br /></div></div><p><br /> </p>TESOL MACEDONIA-THRACE, NORTHERN GREECEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00196347258422818063noreply@blogger.com0
