The document discusses redesigning language teaching approaches to better fit modern "cultures of learning". It notes some common impediments like teaching lessons over learners and for the future rather than the present. It emphasizes teaching students how language is used rather than just what it is. Effective teaching requires helping students believe they have learned something through self-fulfilling strategies. Modern students live in a highly stimulating world and teachers need to incorporate new learning cultures using multimedia resources to develop visual literacy since communication now involves multiple modes beyond just written text.

2. WHAT WE DO IS SHAPED BY WHERE AND HOW WE DO THINGS

3. HOW Some impediments: When we teach lessons, not learners; When we teach for later, not for now; When we see language as a problem, not an opportunity;

4. When we focus on what and not on how language is used.

5. What am I doing? Am I helping rather than hindering? It´s not enough to get our students´attention, not through exciting activities. We need to teach students to believe they have learned something. (self-fulfilling strategy)‏

6. As we are living in a world which is constantly activating our senses, and everyone is looking for new thrills..... We bring to a pinch of a New Learning Culture.....
