ELT Buzz News Digest
All the "buzz" in ELT for August 26th.
Dear Subscribers,
Back in the saddle. I’m teaching, preachin’, reaching for the stars. Lots to do to begin school - see my recent post about this here.
This week, I’d like to suggest a read of this conversation about “growth mindsets”. Do you support this educational belief and / or its research? Please comment.
Hoping you are doing well wherever you are.
Regards,
David
