Ways of Seeing: An Introduction to Drawing for the Language Classroom
Using drawing in the classroom: a short introduction to looking and seeing and how to use drawing as a pathway to discussion and writing.
A free mini workshop I wrote in response to my experiences running artists in schools projects and working with visual arts, community and English language learning.
In this mini course, we look at how drawing can be used in the language classroom, not only for young learners, but for all ages.
This workshop was developed after face-to-face workshops were given to teachers in Athens, Greece at the Image Conference 2018 and in Liverpool at the IATEFL annual conference and the Image Conference in Brussels in 2019.
