TY - CONF ID - 2287517 AU - Chudová, Kateřina - Kallus, Hana PY - 2021 TI - Developing creativity, soft skills and skills for life in international legal podcasting KW - English for specific purposes KW - legal English KW - podcasts KW - team work KW - soft skills KW - hard skills KW - life skills N2 - In today´s world full of challenges caused not only by the pandemic, we strongly believe that teaching should go beyond the syllabus and focus also on life skills, providing students with space for creativity, investigation and learning their own way. In our presentation we will share our hands-on experience with podcasting in an international environment. We will describe the whole process of the international cooperation with our Polish colleagues from Toruń University without any project support. First, we will describe the collaboration from the teachers´ point of view, i.e., what communication channels we tested with students, what guidance and support we provided etc. Then, we will share a summary of students´ feedback on the whole process as well as some of the results. The students were well aware that not only the product – a podcast on a legal topic - but also the journey towards it was a learning experience. They had a real-life opportunity to experience how hard it may be to set up an international team, what a challenge it could be to manage the time, they had to use English as a tool to negotiate, justify opinions, research a topic, reach an agreement, and convey a message using the right register, vocabulary and structure. Most importantly, they had to work autonomously, take responsibility for individual steps in the project, and thus improve valuable life skills. ER -
