For me reduction in paper=fewer worksheets& more notetaking by sts.Old style exercise books have longevity that worksheets don't #eltchat |

@HadaLitim @HanaHainsworth I agree,only a matter of time! When you say adapting,do you mean IELTSLifeSkills? http://t.co/f013732EAi #eltchat |

Reduction of paper-A good starting point is to replace online test with paper test #eltchat |

@IsmarAlabedi @alahiemr @Marisa_C yes, i guess its an interactive and innovative way which shows the creativity of the teachers #eltchat |

Of course, we can't discount the effectiveness of pen and paper when it comes to drawing tasks - these can be really stimulating #ELTchat |

@juliacphang @HadaLitim @HanaHainsworth I don't think that's computer based, is it? Centres aren't technological enough worldwide #eltchat |
| HadaLitim |
2015-04-22T20:59:12 |
@juliacphang @HanaHainsworth yes and I see that as a beginning. A sign that it's ready to flex where there's a need/market #ELTchat |

For me the best way to go ‘paperless’ is to reduce pointless handouts, increase notetaking & sensible digital alternatives. #ELTchat |

@SueAnnan Thanks, Sue. I'll try to find some recent ones so that I can recall how to format it. :) #ELTchat |
