You must log in to view sessions Speaking/Communication College & University Education Practice-Oriented Short Workshop

Free talk allows for learners to develop fluency in a more natural context while also developing a supportive community of learners. This speaking practice is based on Lev Vygotsky’s socio-cultural learning theory, which theorizes that the interaction between individuals is essential for learning. This presentation will discuss why and how to implement free talk in a university setting, as well as how these interactions help create a classroom community.
