Visual literacy: how to exploit illustrations in kids' picture-books, readers and textbook The visual aspect of young learners’ books is a remarkably unconsidered area. Does it complement the words of a story to form an integrated whole or is it an independent mode of expression telling a parallel story? The purpose of the talk will be to analyse different types of texts with a visual component and explore the many strategies that can be used to make the most of covers and illustrations, to relate the visual to the verbal story and to encouragelearners’ evaluation of the artist’s and the writer’s combined skills.
Speaker: Beatriz Pena Lima

Evidently, nowadays, management means much more than variety, good rhythm and teacher’s presence. Although we may sometimes feel at a loss, the solution to discipline problems is in our hands!
