Creating Lexical Notebooks with a Psycholinguistic Approach

Summary

In this online workshop, which was also held at this year’s IATEFL conference in Brighton, participants will explore and try out some interactive techniques to record vocabulary using both a lexical approach and psycholinguistic principles that are combined in a lexical notebook. The presenter, Olena Gyrych, will demonstrate how to engage learners in recording new lexis based on different learning styles and promote learner autonomy in keeping lexical notebooks.
