Making the Most of Interpersonal Tasks: Before, During, and After

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Interpersonal activities and tasks come in many shapes and sizes in the world language classroom. How can we best design them and prepare students to give and receive language during interpersonal tasks? What happens when students are finished with an interpersonal task? Ensuring that students are prepared for the task, know the expectations of the task, and are able to continue the task after its completion is critical to high-quality interpersonal activities. In this session, participants will learn about the importance of using interpersonal tasks; see best strategies for designing, implementing, and creating follow-up opportunities; and view examples of different types of interpersonal tasks in the WL classroom.
