Inspired by Sugata Mitra’s “School in the Cloud” project, Lesley Keast will be presenting some fresh ideas on how to foster collaboration and encourage student responsibility for learning. Lesley will show that this is possible by implementing a facilitative approach which challenges learners to use higher level thinking skills with the use of the internet in the classroom. The session will examine some of the key learning points from the project demonstrating how these are transferable to the Spanish CLIL classroom.
Lesley Keast is the Diploma Course Leader for the British Council in Madrid and has also taught on the Universidad de Alcalá’s MA TESOL course since 2007.
She has taught in Spain, Portugal, Italy and Hungary, and was the Director of Studies of a progressive international school in the UK.
