This document discusses reshaping the English language classroom in technical high schools in Chile. It describes a study that used mixed methods to understand how standardized English tests influence students' opportunities and job prospects. Interviews with teachers found that English lessons focus on grammar and vocabulary rather than communication. Surveys found students feel unprepared for standardized tests and lack exposure to English outside of school. The conclusion states that while English is seen as important for social mobility, standardized tests do not reflect what students learn in school or the skills needed for future use of English.
The document discusses using Kaizena and a cover letter to facilitate dialogic feedback between teachers and students. It notes challenges with current written feedback and how audio feedback could help but often remains a monologue.

While limitations remain, combining tools and learner-centered approaches may further feedback conversations.
This document proposes a GPS navigation app called Gonq Maps designed specifically for students at Algonquin College and other colleges/universities in Ottawa. It would provide turn-by-turn directions to classrooms on campus, track friends' locations, integrate class schedules and ID cards, list campus events, and more. Market research found 100% of students want such an app. With over 61,000 students at Algonquin alone, the projected annual revenue from app sales and advertising is over $1.6 million. The app aims to save students time and money while getting them to their destinations easily.
