Read the MA TESOL QuickFire event page on the Warwick University website.
If you are a postgraduate student, you are probably in the last stages of your final piece of work, the dissertation. Applied Linguistics, University of Warwick (with support from the IATEFL Research Special Interest Group) would like to invite you to an event where you can share what you have found out in your research with other students also at the same stage in their career from all over UK. The event (MA TESOL Quickfire Dissertation Presentation) will take place in person and online (i.e. in hybrid format) on Monday 12th August 2024.
A Quickfire Presentation means that every presenter gives a VERY SHORT (5 minute) summary of their topic (your dissertation research) using exactly 15 PowerPoint slides, which automatically move on every 20 seconds. You should focus mainly on why you chose the topic, how you researched it and what you discovered (if you have reached that stage, what you expect to find if not) - no literature review needed. We realise you may not have finalised your conclusion - this is a chance to discuss your findings and get some feedback before submission.
In the afternoon, our special guest Dr Luis Carabantes (Queen Mary University of London) will reflect on his own journey from MA student to PhD and beyond, giving you a chance to ask questions and clarify your own future plans.
Luis Carabantes is a teacher of English from Chile. He is a Lecturer in Academic and Professional Communication at Queen Mary University of London, where he teaches English for Academic Purposes. He also teaches in the MA TESOL in the modules Second Language Acquisition and Curriculum Design and Materials Evaluation. His research and scholarship focus on teaching materials and teacher education.
You will also be introduced to the benefits of joining a professional association like IATEFL, and the Research Special Interest group in particular. Details of publication opportunities will also be explained.
We look forward to a dynamic and exciting day!
