Description
This workshop will explore how TV news can be used as an effective resource for extensive listening. I will demonstrate a genre-based approach to help learners, even at A2 level, engage with authentic news content. The session will focus on top-down preparatory techniques related to content and conventions, metacognitive activities to develop long-term bottom-up skills, compensatory strategies in the short-term, and socio-affective approaches essential for discussing news and addressing broader issues and solutions.
