Hello #ELTchattersWho's around to talk tonight? #ELTchat |
fionaljp |
2017-12-06T19:02:12 |
@SueAnnan Hi Sue #eltchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:02:16 |
tonight's #ELTchat is about teachers who write alongside their teaching and how to get published #ELTchat |
GlenysHanson |
2017-12-06T19:02:33 |
I'm here, Sue.#ELTchat |
GlenysHanson |
2017-12-06T19:03:17 |
Hi Fiona! #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:03:42 |
great to see you both @GlenysHanson and @fionaljp #ELTchat Have either of you tried your hand ant writing material? |
fionaljp |
2017-12-06T19:04:50 |
@SueAnnan @GlenysHanson Only creating materials for students or trainees not for publishing #eltchat |
GlenysHanson |
2017-12-06T19:05:13 |
Well, in a way.. I've made websites for EFL teachers and students.#ELTchat |

@GlenysHanson Hi Glenys #eltchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:05:23 |
I did a fab oonline course with katherine Bilsborough. It worked out some of the principles for writing for publishers #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:06:24 |
Do you think that all teachers do a bit of writing for their classes? #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:07:02 |
@fionaljp @GlenysHanson Me too #ELTchat |
GlenysHanson |
2017-12-06T19:07:45 |
I wouldn't say they were fab, but I've made a dozen courses for students and 3 or 4 for teachers. #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:08:06 |
any materials writers out their who would like to join us tonight? #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:08:34 |
oops there #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:09:24 |
@GlenysHanson But I'm sure they worked. What made you decide to produce your own material? #ELTchat |
MarjorieRosenbe |
2017-12-06T19:09:50 |
@SueAnnan In my experience each publisher and projectvis different. #eltchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:10:19 |
@MarjorieRosenbe What got you started Marjorie ? #ELTchat |
GlenysHanson |
2017-12-06T19:10:50 |
@SueAnnan Well, there wasn't any material for the sort of online course I wanted. #ELTchat |
fionaljp |
2017-12-06T19:11:26 |
@SueAnnan Hard to say. Problems with time constraints definitely - hard to find time to be creative #eltchat - but… https://t.co/f46vGz4xPv |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:11:39 |
@GlenysHanson I see. I find that is usually when I produce what I need. When the books don't deliver #ELTchat |
MarjorieRosenbe |
2017-12-06T19:12:07 |
@SueAnnan I would think so although I assume it depends where you teach and which level. #eltchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:12:28 |
@fionaljp I think it is great when you 'own' the material you use too. #ELTchat |
MarjorieRosenbe |
2017-12-06T19:13:33 |
RT @SueAnnan: @MarjorieRosenbe What got you started Marjorie ? #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:13:37 |
@MarjorieRosenbe Does the level really matter? you could use more authentic material at higher levels, though #ELTchat |

@SueAnnan Yes me hello :) #ELTchat |
fionaljp |
2017-12-06T19:14:08 |
@SueAnnan Yes, and great for the students too as for them #eltchat |
SueAnnan |

@pterolaur Great to see you #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:14:40 |
@fionaljp Do they always recognise your own work? #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:15:48 |
How much of a step is it to try to publish- even e-books, after making stuff for your classes? #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:16:55 |
@MarjorieRosenbe Yes, me too. Jill's stuff is still good, but needs updating a bit. I sometimes take her ideas and… https://t.co/PJYCGLrgVx |

SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:22:07 |
@GlenysHanson @MarjorieRosenbe @fionaljp I can see the freedom in that. Do you ever get feedback on the materials you produce? #ELTchat |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:24:09 |
Do any of you get feedback on your stuff? #ELTchat Negative or positive? |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:25:01 |
@MarjorieRosenbe It's possible that they have everything provided for their curriculum #ELTchat |

I think that producing photocopiable stuff is more interesting anyway, isn't it? #ELTchat https://t.co/SreqGZPPPj |
SueAnnan |
2017-12-06T19:45:39 |
The other problem is teachers who hive off with your material and don't give you credit for it #ELTchat |
