I am just back from an inspiring trip to Brasil and Peru.

On my free weekend in Rio, I had the great good fortune to be taken up to see Christ the Redeemer statue. In Peru, I didn’t manage to see Macchu Pichu, and that seems like a good reason to return!

The trip has inspired the latest e-lesson, which has just been sent out by Macmillan.

To download the lesson, click here: E-lesson

So thanks again to Clebert for that trip to the Corcovada! This e-lesson is for you … and I hope that Sachie in Peru downloads it, too!

Now I am back in the UK, I am pleased to have been able to prepare the promised Handout for the plenary at the LABCI / ABCI conference in Sao Paolo, Friday July 13th.

The Handout is also applicable for the Macmillan co-ordinators plenary in Lima, Peru, Saturday July 21st.

 Download the handout as a Word document.

Enjoy!

Do visit the MEC blog to see a short video clip on Blended Learning.

The final article in a three-part series offering practical ideas on using new technologies in the classroom has just gone up on the OnsStopEnglish site.

This looks at using email, chat and virtual learning environments in language courses.
