Language Lives : Conversations with Language Education Specialists
An overview of Phase 1 of the series of Language Lives conversations by Michael Byram, John Daniels and Alan Dobson, has recently appeared in the Language Teaching Journal (LLJ): ‘Living in exciting times’ Language Lives: reflections on language teaching practice and policy in the UK over four decades’. The article is on open access via the following link:
Phase 2 of Language Lives, drawing upon a wide cohort of interviewees from diverse professional backgrounds, has been launched with three new conversations. The conversations feature: David Little, Fellow Emeritus, Trinity College Dublin and a former adviser to the Irish Government; John Daniels (a member of the LL team), a former teacher of French and Head of a Middle School; and Kit Thorne, formerly an LEA adviser in Leicestershire, Oldham and Sheffield, who is of course our highly respected NALA colleague and recent NALA Fellow.
The Language Lives conversations from Phase 1 (7) and Phase 2 to date (3) are available online. Please see the links below.
