Date: Friday 11th June 2021
Time: 15:30-17:00 (UK time)
Platform: Zoom
The BALEAP SIG Developing, Teaching and Testing Academic Listeners will be holding a ‘Listening in the Disciplines’ Event on Friday 11th June from 15:30 to 17:00 (UK time). We have a great range of really interesting presentations from some fantastic speakers lined up for you, and each speaker will be discussing an aspect of how they deal with listening with students in specific discipline groups. Please see information attached to this email on the speakers and their presentations (with information on one more to come shortly). Some of the questions we hope to address during this event are:
• What types of listening do students in specific disciplines need to do during their studies? What are the main demands of these types of listening?
• What specific areas of language/listening need to be developed with students on EAP pre-sessionals and in-sessionals so that they can listen successfully in their specific disciplines?
• What is the role of listening in how students are taught and/or assessed in their specific disciplines?
Format
Each presenter will have 5-10 minutes to present. There are 9 speakers confirmed for the event, 4 speaking on STEM-related practice and 5 on a mix of others (Fashion, English, Business, Law).
We are planning to divide into two separate presentation stream rooms for the first hour or so - one room for STEM-related and one mixed discipline presentations. Attendees will be asked to select presentation stream at the beginning of the event and will move to that room. Unfortunately, switching between streams will not be possible. After the presentations and some time to chat in these rooms, we will all come back together for a short discussion before the event closes.
