Hello again,
I was at the Braz-Tesol Brasília One Day Event last Friday and I have to confess it was one of the best events I have attended in the past few years. It was very well organized, the plenaries were awesome (as well as the coffee break :P), the presenters were very well prepared and the receptiveness was impeccable.
I myself conducted a workshop entitled "Enhancing Communication in the EFL Class - A Task-Based Approach", in which it was discussed how tasks can be used as the central focus in a supportive methodological framework, highlighting the advantages of a Task-Based approach over the more traditional Presentation, Practice and Production approach.
Reflecting upon the workshop, I could see most of the participants were engaged and interested in the topic, which led to good discussions and group bonding. I mentioned I would make everything available here, so if you attended the workshop or just feel like reading the documents, you can download all of them here.
See you soon.
