Paul Keogh MBE, Teacher of the Year 2003/04, Head of Languages, King James’s School, Knaresborough 2.1 Innovative ways of using ICT for Spanish teaching This session attempts to explore ways of using ICT in the teaching of Spanish in years 7-13. It is hoped that the ideas are different without being outlandish and that all are within the technical scope of a ‘normal’ teacher. Nick Mair, Dulwich College, London 2.2 The motivational potential of Spanish Nottingham Trent University has provided a number of opportunities for learning Spanish in the local community, to groups from preschool children to adults with various disabilities. The speakers discuss the appeal of Spanish and how it has been used to motivate learners, using innovative approaches. They suggest how these can be adapted for use by other teachers.
