Further notes For my friends at IATEFL I hope you enjoyed the talk. I recorded the session but found out at the end that no recording was made. However, I’m due to give this again in Abu Dhabi on April 12 and I’ll try and get a definitive recording then. Also I’m thinking to make the slideshare from that presentation a definitiive mashup of my TESOL and IATEFL presentations, so you might check back here after that date and see if there is an even better talking version of this slide show posted at http://slideshare.net/vances Meanwhile, I’ll be interacting with some of you at http://exeteronline.britishcouncil.org/ .
