Event Date: 14/02/2014 10:30 - 15:30

The University of York (in collaboration with the Association for Language Learning) is running a one day interactive workshop in York on Friday 14 February 2014 for teachers who’d like to find out more about how to carry out action research and who’d be interested in getting involved in projects. The event will bring together researchers and practitioners with an interest in carrying out research into primary school language learning.

Delegates will work in thematic groups of their choice (ICT; motivation; progression; literacy; transition) along with a leading researcher. Drawing on their classroom experiences and on the research expertise provided, delegates will refine research questions, plan the methods, and design the execution of an individual or collaborative research project.

You can find out more about the themes, the researchers leading the groups and the full registration details on the ALL website.

Register by 31 October 2013.
