Social Communities: Don’t end up making them virtual ghost towns.Sanjay Abraham
Social communities could add lot of value if it’s properly built and nurtured within an enterprise. More than a technology or platform, a Social Community is about people. There could be technology worth millions but if people are not engaging, the social communities are bound
to fail.
Impact of counterfeits on electronics companiesNEW Momentum
Outsourcing and globalization have numerous benefits, but there is a downside—the proliferation of counterfeits and sales through unauthorized channels. This paper demonstrates the impact of counterfeits on electronics companies and gives solutions for finding the violators as well as a four-step roadmap for recovering revenue lost to counterfeits.

Plenary Speech given at ELT Research in Action (ELTRIA) Barcelona, May 10th 2024
In this talk, I will discuss the enduring relevance of the theme of authenticity in ELT. In particular, I want to discuss the place of “authentic” language in the post-truth era; the importance of knowing what is “real” when it comes to using a foreign language; and, of course, the role of Artificial Intelligence in a world where teachers still need to make meaningful connections with our students, and yet computers are altering the way these interaction might take place. I will discuss the importance of group dynamics and motivation when trying to forge a culture of authentic learning and language use in our classrooms. Near the end of the talk, I will share practical ideas for navigating this uncertain present and precarious future, and I hope to begin a meaningful discussion about the role and relevance of researching authenticity in action.
Me and My Memes: EFL students’ memes and their role in participatory cultureRichard Pinner
Memes are the “lingua franca” of the internet (Milner, 2016), and there is a small but growing body of research using memes with EFL learners (Harshavardhan et al, 2019). In this talk, I share some of my own practical experiences using memes in Japanese university classes. Students find and share memes, as well as creating and sharing their own. The values and potential pitfalls of this are discussed practically, and some preliminary data about students’ reflections and experiences of using memes are presented to begin a discussion on the potential place that memes might have in the EFL classroom. Initial response show that students found making their own memes to be a rewarding experience that gave them a connection to participatory culture (Jenkins et al, 2009).

Using & Adapting Authentic Materials To Help Motivate Students 2021 HandoutRichard Pinner
This course offers an insight into how best to select and adapt authentic materials to use with students as a way of exposing them to other cultures and ways of thinking. It has been shown that authentic materials are more motivating for students (Peacock, 1997) and thus the class will feature practical demonstrations of ways in which authentic materials can be used to help motivate students. In the class, participants will look at, observe and demonstrate tasks which utilise authentic materials and participants will also have the chance to a adapt materials and design their own tasks in a hands-on workshop

How to Integrate Content and Language in CLIL Pedagogy Theories and ExamplesRichard Pinner
This seminar focuses on the integration of subject-matter and
English acquisition, which is the crucial aspect of CLIL (Content
and Language Integrated Learning). Theories based on the most
recent research and classroom examples informed by those
studies will be presented. The speakers are Professor Angel Lin
(Simon Fraser University, Canada), a world-famous researcher in CLIL, and Professor Makoto Ikeda (Sophia University), vice
president of Japan CLIL Pedagogy Association.
‘Concept+Language Mapping’ (CLM) as an Innovative Approach to CLILRichard Pinner
How to integrate content learning with language learning has been a central issue in current
research on CLIL (Dalton-Puffer et al.,2010). In this talk I present our experience in developing
an innovative approach, ‘Concept+Language Mapping’ (CLM) (Lin & He, 2017; He & Lin,
forthcoming), by drawing on Lemke (1990)’s ‘thematic patterns’ theory to tackle the challenge
of integrating language scaffolding into the teaching of complex content topics in secondary
science classrooms in Hong Kong. Implications for content-based language education or ‘Soft
CLIL’ will also be discussed.

Adding content, structuring, notes for presenting
From here, the lessons will be very workshoppy, much less teacher led.
If you don’t know where you want to go, you end up going in circles.
Decide what you most want to work on for your final presentation. Discuss with your partner.
Have a load of nice expressions for thesis, conclusion, topic sentcence etc.. Plus a list of useful vocab for talking about lit and a kind of adapted what we talk about when we talk about lit h/o for essay questions and researching topic. Also do same but non lit focus for AE general subjects.
Order of presentations
Final Presentation date is 16/12 and 06/01
