FET@KU Forum of English Teacher Educators of Kannur University Two articles which appeared in   online   version of   The Hindu is worth reading: The first one by Maya   Thiagarajan is   entitled   ‘Make teachers matter’.   It reminded me of a significant observation made by Diana Oblinger, the President and CEO of EDUCAUSE   in 2012: Information technology can be a game changer in higher education… information technology enables new models. It can disaggregate and decouple products and processes, allowing the creation of new value propositions, value chains, and enterprises. These new models can help higher education serve new groups of students, in greater numbers, and with better learning outcomes.

FET@KU Forum of English Teacher Educators of Kannur University Though Grammar is central to the teaching of languages most educators are not very comfortable with the teaching of Grammar…There are teachers who focus on grammar as a   set of forms and rules.

Incidentally, our students are expected to conduct two A...
