The ELT Buzz News Report
Keeping you updated with news, videos, articles related to English Language Teaching.
Dear Teachers,
Please find this week’s report below!
My tip this week is this letter by a 16 year old student Olivia Han. It’s about her use of ChatGPT and great, insightful writing. You might even use it and read it with your own students, if level appropriate! Start this discussion. I’ll also second this article by Nicholas Carr about the Eliza Effect and its history. He raises some great points about our own anthropomorphizing of machines and technology. We truly see meaning in all things - that’s a blessing but at times a curse.
