From Denae Harmon (she/her) to Everyone 11:25 PM

Getting my questions into the space -> 1. Which two districts? I'm assuming Tashkent region, but what's the other? 2. Is the MoE planning to align the national exams to the new standards? 3. Is the MASSIVE amount of PD planned for this summer already part of teaching in-service? 4. How does the new EFL roll-out intersect with Russian language instruction?

From Laureen Fregeau, (she, her) to Everyone 11:27 PM

Do any of you include native English speaker conversation partner activities through videoconferencing? If so, has this been successful?

From Aida Amirova to Everyone 11:28 PM

Thank you for amazing talks! Good luck.  Have you considered conducting interventions comparing Uzbek language arts and typical textbooks? e.g., measuring learning gains. That would maybe show clear distinction between two textbooks.

From Laureen Fregeau, (she, her) to Everyone 11:29 PM

Thanks. I have been successfully doing this for more than a decade but with secondary and post secondary.

From Ramin Yazdanpanah to Everyone 11:31 PM

Laureen, great question. Yes, this would be an excellent activity for teachers to implement in the classroom. Internet access could be an issue for some.

From Ana H Marty to Everyone 11:32 PM

Availability of hardware might be another issue to consider.

From Laureen Fregeau, (she, her) to Everyone 11:32 PM

It s for my partners in Latin America and KEnya but we manage to adapt.

From Ramin Yazdanpanah to Everyone 11:32 PM

This would also be helpful to develop intercultural communication competence.

From Joke Van Belle - VVOB to Everyone 08:03 AM

I need to leave, unfortunately. Thanks for the interesting presentation; there are many learnings coming out of your research. If possible, please send the presentation so I can read it afterwards? joke.vanbelle@vvob.org

From Dho Ong Jhaan to Everyone 08:17 AM

Speaking from Myanmar, when it comes to teaching of and in local languages here one issue has been a shortage of teachers (both Preservice and Inservice) who have literacy skills in the mother tongues of the students due to the lack of support over the past few decades. To what extent this is an issue in this context – do the preservice teachers have literacy skills in the respective local language(s) upon entry or are they provided with additional literacy courses throughout their training?

From Barbara Trudell to Everyone 08:19 AM

Thanks, presenters! I have to go - but well done.

From psowa@rti.org to Everyone 08:20 AM

Thanks Barbara

From Carol Benson to Everyone 08:26 AM

Thanks everyone for your great work as reported today! Have you been able to do anything in PST to address the need for continued development of L1 literacy? (Beyond the “early grades” I mean.) I’m worried about not only initial literacy but also how this foundation contributes to interlinguistic transfer. I’m also worried that “translanguaging” becomes unsystematic mixing rather than PEDAGOGICAL translanguaging (e.g. Cenoz & Gorter)— using languages purposefully. Thank you!
