The ELT Buzz Digest
All the news and "buzz" in English language teaching. December 09.
Dear Teachers,
Here is this week’s digest. Always lots for everyone!
My tip this week is this free journal - Exploring AI in Applied Linguistics from Iowa State. Some interesting research articles in it. Also, read the article below, offering a John Mulaney joke - his quip gets to the heart of the AI in education issue.
I will be taking a short holiday break and we’ll be back in the new year with the digest. Wishing everyone lots of happiness and health. I’ll be cycling in Taiwan and exploring its mountains. Need teaching resources for holiday lessons? Check out the lesson library - new additions and loads of quality materials.
Regards,
