I found the session very informative and interesting and I am eagerly awaiting the opportunity to shar e teh ideas with the other teachers at El Cultural, Trujillo Peru. After which I hope that we can start to build up our own film clip library, which once tried and tested could be posted on the internet to share with others.
I am also interested in an using the movie segments to not only assess grammar, but in enabling the students to create their own movie clip which expresses the same kind of situation. Therefore, backing up grammar work with oral work. I will be trying some ideas out in a drama club.
I was extremely lucky to be able to attend the workshop and it has opened up a whole field of potential work in class as students are definitely turned on by the use of film segments.
I can't thank you enough.
