Discovering English with VersaText

This course teaches you how to use VersaText, a free online program for studying and teaching English through texts one at a time. There are ten units. The first four introduce the four tools and some of their ins and outs. The following units suggest ways of  learning language and the content from the text, and the vocabulary and grammar work that can be done with VersaText.

The course is especially suited to teachers who need to create activities and lessons based on texts for which no resources are available.  Teachers of General English might like to include local and/or current topics, and teachers of CLIL, ESP and EMI often have to work with novel texts.

Vocabulary Strategies

The aim of this course is to develop a task-based approach to vocabulary teaching and learning. Given that new linguistic features beget new learning tasks, this course explores many linguistic features around which we can create learning tasks.   

There are ten units of work that will be conducted online and face-to-face.
