Lesson organization
Pre-training phase: 10 days prior to the training event, you will fill in a pre-lesson questionnaire. In the questionnaire we will evaluate your teaching needs and experience (topics, most frequent mistakes by students, areas or genres focused on, years of experience, experience with technology-driven materials etc.). This will help us tailor the materials and choose the right AI tools.
During-the-lesson phase: You will be taught which tools to use and how to use them to prepare engaging lessons on legal English (on the basis of the results of the pre-lesson questionnaires). In the last part of the lesson (1 hour, approximately), you will be prompted to create materials based on the AI tools analysed and send such newly created materials to us for “evaluation” purposes.
Post-training phase: We will ask you to fill in a post-lesson questionnaire, with evaluations on the AI tools, their perceived quality, reliability, future usages, etc.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MATERIALS YOU WILL PRODUCE MAY BE MENTIONED OR USED IN A SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATION. BY PARTICIPATING IN THIS WORKSHOP, YOU EXPRESSLY CONSENT TO YOUR DATA AND ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONNAIRE BEING USED.
