Swiss Exams Webinar: Encouraging self-study with the latest Exam preparation materials from Cambridge Exams Publishing
The situation since 2020 has tested and challenged the very process of teaching and learning and we have all successfully adapted in many ways. Cambridge has accelerated its digital offer to make our new learning materials for B2 First and C1 Advanced even more flexible for whatever teaching scenarios arise. This session will demonstrate Test & Train the new mobile-first exam practice tool which allows students to work in their own time but also get the reliable feedback they need to have confidence on exam day.

Swiss Exams Webinar: A more in-depth look at Quizlet
Quizlet has also been mentioned in earlier workshops and webinars, and its basic features are very probably widely known. This webinar will look at ways of using Quizlet that go beyond making sets of flash cards consisting of word/definition and show sets that can be used to practise grammar, pronunciation and language skills in addition to a wide range of vocabulary-based sets. There will be an opportunity to try out creating some sets of your own, if time permits.
