Abstract
We are language teachers and should be teaching language, not
wasting time watching our learners struggle with pronunciation
which we all know they find boring. Living and working here, we
become inured to and sometimes over-tolerant of substandard
pronunciation, which doesn't necessarily mean sounding like a native
speaker. But how many times have we accepted walk for woke, cut
for cat and berry for very? It's not always easy to diagnose the cause
of our students' pronunciation problems, much less propose an
adequate solution. In this session, for teachers of teens and adults,
we won't be doing any choral drilling but we'll take a look at a range
of non-threatening classroom strategies and techniques that can
help students identify and overcome their pronunciation difficulties.
This workshop looks at a number of accessible ways we can work on
in and out of class to help improve our learners' pronunciation by
providing them activities which we can use in our language classes.
You will find practical in class activities and enjoyable online digital
games to integrate pronunciation teaching to your lessons.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
