IE Teachers Orientation

Posted on March 6, 2012 by Jodias

The 19th Annual Faculty Development Symposium on University English Teaching (AKA IE Orientation) will take place on Friday, April 6th this year. Several teachers in the IE Program have generously agreed to speak on issues of common interest, including apps for teachers and students, drama in the classroom, and ways to teach reading. For the first time, we will also host a “swap shop” of activities that have worked well for us in our AGU classes.
