Подробнее о вебинаре:

Gapfill exercises, in which learners have to fill in the blanks with missing words, are often criticized for promoting only receptive knowledge of vocabulary. Grammar gapfills, on the contrary, tend to require learners to produce the correct form (e.g. put the verb in the correct tense), bypassing the crucial recognition stage of grammar learning. In addition, both vocabulary and grammar gapfills have been criticized for being unauthentic, mechanical, and boring. In this webinar, we will discover how, with a bit of imagination, we can put a ’spark’ into gapfill exercises and make them more effective tools for practising new and old vocabulary and grammar.

As a bonus the participants will get Quizlet sets to demonstrate the ideas presented in the webinar.

Registration fee: 2600 roubles.
