I'm doing two talks this year. The first is with Mark Ibbotson, and I wrote a little about it here. The second is about collaboration in ESP course design and delivery, a topic that's becoming more and more important as technology plays an increasing role in our teaching. I'll be posting the slides from both talks early next week.
There was some great news at the opening party last night. English360 was declared the winner of the annual David Riley Award for Innovation in Business English and ESP. David was a legendary and visionary publisher in our field, and the award was set up to honour his memory. I never had the chance to work with him, but many colleagues did, all of whom speak of him in the warmest possible way.
I'm very proud to be Publishing Manager for English360, although all of the credit for last night's award goes to the team who have been slaving away for the last few years to make something that I think is truly unique in language teaching.
If you want to know more about English360, here's a short video which I think it sums it up perfectly:
