NCLE CPD webinar series
Webinar overview
Systematic and regular practice and use of phonics in meaningful contexts using high frequency vocabulary will enable learners to fix these in long-term memory, enabling them to decode and encode the new language, improving their pronunciation and their ability to communicate in all four skills, becoming increasingly independent.
We recognise the interdependence of relatedness, autonomy and competence in motivation for language learning. We will explore how to develop meaning-driven grammar and illustrate how well spaced and sequenced teaching of grammar in context will improve motivation and learner self-efficacy.
The session will be led by Honorary Professor Bernadette Holmes (IOE) and Professor Suzanne Graham.
