- Objetivos
The main objective for this training programme is for participants to acquire or enhance their pedagogical skills in accordance with ORDER 2876/2018 for ESO and Bachillerato. During this programme, they will:
a. Familiarize themselves with innovative approaches to teaching literature and language, including Kenneth Goldsmith’s “Uncreative Writing”, Ben Knight’s critical-creative approach to teaching literature, and Rob Pope’s “textual interventions”.
b. Be exposed to a wide range of texts of contemporary literature. This will include literature from postcolonial countries – e.g. Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, Korea –, and marginalized genres like speculative fiction, graphic novels, spoken-word poetry and creative non-fiction.
c. Learn how to integrate transmediality in their lessons, by looking at existing adaptations of literature (e.g. graphic novels into Netflix series) but also by looking at how literature features and is tributed by artists across a variety of art forms and media (poetry quoted in films, visual/sculptural/virtual reality artworks inspired by fiction and poetry, etc.).
d. Engage students and provoke their creative, intertextual and transmedial responses to English-language forms of poetry and fiction.
e. Generate discussions about the challenges and opportunities of second language acquisition, focusing in particular on the formation of identity in L2 learners and the role of creativity in this process.
f. Create activities working towards multiple learning outcomes within the framework proposed by ORDER 2876/2018 for ESO and Bachillerato. Integrate production skills in comprehension activities and vice versa, and enhance simulation activities by stimulating learners’ creativity and participation.
g. Engage with the widest variety of text types and discourses to expose students to different registers, styles and communicative purposes (teaching, informing, describing, entertaining, persuading, etc.). Teach students how to read and analyse written and oral discourse critically, and enable them to take their own productive skills (speaking and writing) to the highest level.- Contenidos

The overall approach to this training is practice-based. The tutor will lead on a number of activities in which participants will be involved as “students”. Then, at home, participants will be asked to reflect on their practice and come up with proposals for similar activities to share with their peers.
Each 3-hour session, except for the first one, will be structured as follows:
• Sharing: participants’ share their ideas for activities based on the previous sessions’ topics and themes (depending on the number of participants, this activity could be done in groups or collectively as a class);
• Learning: the tutor introduces the day’s theme or pedagogical tool;
• Doing: the participants test the activity proposed by the tutor;
• Reflecting (at home): the participants think about the activity and how they can adapt it for their own purposes;
• Putting in practice (at home): the participants come up with a similar activity using their own original content and teaching methods.
During the first session, the “sharing” stage will be replaced by a general introduction to the
training and to fundamentals of pedagogy.- Evaluación
This training course is based on self-assessment and on tutors producing short pieces of reflective writing to process the activities they experiment with in class and to think about their own pedagogical approaches and preferred tools.
