Notice that this training course is designed as an introductory course to new approaches and teaching strategies such as gamification or flipped classroom. How can I engage students using games in the English class? Is flipped classroom a good strategy in hybrid and non-hybrid classes? How can we foster English oral and written competences by means of ICT? Is PBL efficient to learn English? Feedback to my students...

The course is made up of 5 modules of an estimate 5h each, plus a final project of 5h. Each module approaches a different topic and integrates activities that participants will compile in a portfolio in the last module.
