Just wanted to say thankyou to Margaret for a very relevant and
interesting presentation. The discussion which followed was also very
useful, especially in terms of appropriate research tools and new
technology available for Workbased Learning.
As promised, here is a link for the dfes Embedded Materials for Nursing.
www.dfes.gov.uk
Go to the red search box on the dfes home page (top right) and type in
'Effective Communication For International Nurses'. The modules and
various related documents come up.
Although not meant specifically for learners with ESOL needs, these are
useful source materials which can be adapted for ESOL learners. This is
true of the embedded materials for E2E and Family Health as well.
Catering is the only set with ESOL specific materials.

Subject: ESOL-Research presentation and refs
Hello!
Last Thursday Margaret Hearnden presented her work to the ESOL Research
Group. Margaret has been doing PhD research into the communicative needs
of internationally educated nurses. Her study is in a Canadian context -
she is based at OISE/University of Toronto. We found many points of
comparison with the UK situation at the meeting.
Margaret has kindly allowed me to forward her powerpoint presentation
and list of references to ESOL-Research. I know a number of people would
like to have been there but couldn't. So here is the next best thing.
Margaret's email adress is on the refs list, if you want to get in touch
with her.
Best wishes
James
