ELE material Cooperative learning from Ceuta to Cantabria, through

Find effective ways to teach is a professional obligation for all teachers, and can be fun. That's my premise when I make a session on cooperative learning: organizing a session in which we work cooperatively - relying on the usual conditions of a permanent training session: large groups, unknown to the speaker, with diverse interests, etc. - to become familiar with the basics of cooperative learning at the same time we know our brothers and sisters and enjoyed the session. And fortunately for me, I quite often offer the opportunity to have a good time in the company of teachers talking about cooperative learning: I am certainly a lucky person.

ELE The world has always had a keen interest in cooperative learning. In recent years due to diffusion, International House and the English Ministry of Education have been able to present my ideas on cooperative learning and Würzburg Krakow, on Saturday I did Seville thanks to Congress ACEIs and CLIC and today I have done the same at the headquarters of the Fundación Comillas as part of their Encounter ELE.
