English Roundtable Webchat -- Tuesday, October 13th, 2009
Dear friends and colleagues,
Thank you for all the support of our past webchats and for the warm inquires about the next webchat. I hope you all feel invigorated after the long summer break.
I am more than happy to announce that we will be holding our next English Roundtable Webchat on Tuesday October 13th BETWEEN 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm (We will try a different time slot this time in a hope that more English teachers will be able to join us). Details please see below:
Time: 4: 00 pm Beijing time (8 am GMT +8) Tuesday, October 13th, 2009
Abstract: Highly Effective Teachers
Quote from ASCD (American Supervision for Curriculum Design):
“Definitions shape what we value and support. It’s critical to define effective teaching to build systems that reward, support, and extend the influence of effective teachers, but the task requires careful consideration to avoid definitions that limit teacher creativity or leadership or reduce teacher and student achievement to a single test score.“
So we are inviting you to join us for a discussion about how we shall define effective teaching and being effective teachers on October 13th. Mark your calendar and we are looking forward to talking to you soon!
