College and University Practice-based Long Session (45 minutes)

Cancelled How to Prepare Students for ER: Lessons Learned in Iraq and Palestine

Sat, Aug 6, 11:30-12:15 Asia/Tokyo

This workshop is for those who want to learn how to implement digital ER for reticent readers in EAP settings where digital resources are unfamiliar to students. For online and blended classes, ER tips were found to be useful to supplement intensive reading to establish reading routines (Grabe & Stoller, 2020; Nation, 2012). Based on lessons learned in Kurdistan and Palestine, the session will help guide participants as they compare free digital ER resources, for fiction, non-fiction, and tools instructors can use to generate their own leveled texts for extensive reading ("i-1") or intensive reading ("i+1"). Finally, participants will create, share, and give feedback on their own plan for implementing ER.
