Thanks for the tip @ChrisPatrickF -- this is the right weekend. I just followed the sound of cheering crowds. Amazing! #Barcelona

@ChrisCattaneo @shaunsweeney78 Thank you! 🙂

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

When you discover your voice is well known as far as Russia (via @shaunsweeney78's TD Lab Facebook group). Felling happy after my talk at #ihbcnelt

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

It's fun to laugh at past methods but there must be countless millions who learned via any one of those we've left behind. @thornburyscott says we should look back to see what's retrievable as we move forward at #ihbcnelt

"Natural pedagogy" observed in hunter gatherer societies is brief, subtle, indirect and situated in present activity. How many ELT lessons are? @thornburyscott at #ihbcnelt

I have a solution for that "ELT footprint" problem. 1. Stop printing / distributing comercial litter. Revolutionary! #IHBCNELT

Ts *say* they don't like explicit correction, but explicit reformulation most common type of intervention according to Danny Norrington-Davies at #ihbcnelt

@nastyaschoice And the person from the company distributing them dumped their last ten copies in the trash before leaving!

Take one if you're (not) interested. Mark Hancock at #ihbcnelt

A few great resources and a couple of low prep activities for talking about (and encouraging) voting in the EU elections https://t.co/rBE4l2ZQyQ

Sad news ...

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

Who's afraid of the English Verb? Most mind blowing ELT book I ever read. Getting introduced to it almost justified the price of the Cambridge Delta.

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

@patrickelt @nathanghall Me too (with French and Italian). But the for me the value in getting through my first Balzac was that I chose/completed it on my own.

@kamilaofprague @11thhourspecial Thanks! I hope it helps 😉

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

Thanks for the shares @11thhourspecial @kamilaofprague, all!

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

@timhampson Definitely biOPic but I remember first getting freaked out about the OTHER pron about 5-6 years ago from a coursebook

[Kyle Dugan @kyletdugan]

@11thhourspecial I like your ideas about instutional sharing of materials. I still live in a world of individual teacher hoarders, and I'm as guilty as anybody.
