On the 13th of September 2024, our PhD student Katherine Halley presented her project and the Future of English at BAAL TEASIG which took place at St Annes college in Oxford.
The theme of BAAL TEASIG this year was diversifying language assessment, and Katie presented on the sub-theme of multimodality and assessment.

Multimodality in higher education digital EMI classrooms: assessing embodied resources of interactional competence
Katie's presentation focused on Phase 1 of her project which entails the coding of the 21 embodied resources (i.e., visual behaviours) that were found ‘Useful/Very Useful’ by an expert panel in the Preliminary Investigation. Moreover, the second stage of Phase 1, the Conversation analysis informed multimodal discourse analysis, was presented for a more in-depth exploration of excerpts of embodied resources and language used in digital EMI classes.
Katie also talked about the Future of English project and the importance of the grant scheme.
