Creativity in Digital Learning and Teaching (Nik Peachey) Creativity is not only an essential feature of language use, but it will be a key skill for employability over the coming decade. With classrooms moving progressively towards more online delivery, how can we ensure that we don’t lose one of the most fulfilling and engaging aspects of learning?
As for virtual classroom platforms there are a lot of free alternatives to Zoom and the one you choose may well depend on your students access to technology, the model of delivery you want to use and whether you see this as a short or longer term situation.

In this episode, we speak to Nik Peachey, Director of Pedagogy at PeacheyPublications, an independent digital publishing company that specialises in the design of digital learning materials. We discuss digital resources to enhance both online and face-to-face classes, the importance of socialisation in the remote classroom, and developing your own digital materials. Nik also shares his thoughts on the future of digital ELT.
What makes flipped learning distinct from other forms of blended learning is the relationship between the independent study that students do alone and the work they do together.
Over the last year, we have seen one of the biggest fundamental shifts in educational practice in history. Within the space of weeks, millions of students and their teachers were forced out of their classrooms and onto online platforms with the challenge of building rapport in a new context.

"With many of us making the shift to remote teaching and learning it seems all the more important to remember to maintain the human aspect of language learning. What could be more human than the need to create? In this session Nik Peachey will share ideas, exercises and activities which foster our students’ creativity and enable them to use language in a creative way. The activities will show how the remote classroom can be leveraged to make language learning and use a creative and engaging experience."
Abstract: In this presentation, we will be looking at the potential of a range of AI powered tools to transform the work we do in the classroom and to help our learners develop in a way that is both more effective and more closely adapted to their needs and interests. In the session, I will share with you a pedagogically sound approach to utilising tools like ChatGPT and explore some of the issues that these technologies raise. The focus of the session will be on how to make your job easier and how to make lessons more creative and engaging.
In an era of digital transformation, language teachers face a new realm of possibilities. Introducing "ChatGPT in the Language Classroom," a comprehensive guide crafted specifically for educators seeking to revolutionize their teaching practices. With over 50 meticulously curated lessons and spanning across 259 pages, this book is a treasure trove of insights, resources, and strategies designed to enhance language learning experiences and empower teachers to elevate their skills.
Through the lesson, students find out more about white privilege by watching a short video, and they hear some people sharing their views about white privilege. They use techniques from dialogue building to explore the person’s beliefs in a neutral way. They then find out about the beliefs of their peers by asking open questions and listening.
What’s your post pandemic tool kit? For many teachers the recent pandemic brought about a quantum leap in the use of technology. Being dropped into remote classrooms with little notice and often less training forced teachers to either sink or swim in those early few weeks.

Creativity is not only an essential feature of language use, but it will be a key skill for employability over the coming decade. With classrooms moving progressively towards more online delivery, how can we ensure that we don’t lose one of the most fulfilling and engaging aspects of learning?
The mobile learning conceptMobile learning can be understood as any learning or training that takes place using a mobile phone or tablet device. This is a definition linked to specific technological objects rather than any pedagogical assumptions or underlying theories of learning. It is therefore helpful to consider the characteristics of mobile devices that lend themselves most readily to language learning. In this paper, we focus specifically on how we can use mobile apps to achieve language learning objectives.
I found this article truly interesting because it tells how important it is to use social media as a tool to learn more about a foreign language. Nowadays, it is fundamental to show the new generations other uses a mobile device can have besides entertaining and keeping contact with family and friends. In the 21st century, social media should also work as an educational and academic tool for students who are looking forward to study in a more dynamic way.
This article talks not only of the use of Mobile apps in classes, but also about these apps on an English class. Also, it explains how to implement that in those classes and how it could help for example in time managment, to evaluate students and to monitor them. Times has change and we can use technollogy very well if we want, even to teach or to do teaching more easy, and I think that this article is very interesting and usefull for me as a future English teacher, since it gives me a good option to make my classes more interactive and didactive through mobile apps. I can make use of them to keep my students organized, to keep them concentrated and to monitor them, for examplo with apps such a Schoology, in which I can be more aware of my future students, the tasks and exams.
The purpose of this book is to enable socialisation in the remote classroom and to help you develop your students as a team, working together and collaborating to develop their language learning skills in the remote classroom.Many teachers an
