HUPE Split Branch meeting

Dear colleagues,

The HUPE Split Branch meeting for the end of the school year 2022/2023 will take place on Thursday, May 18, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. at Osnovna škola Brda, Put Brda 2, Split.

 Agenda:

  1. DanijelaRadić & Ivana Bokavšek: Music Based Creative Writing
    Writing is a challenging teaching process that can be enhanced and facilitated by different techniques that motivate students to be imaginative and productive in their written expressions ‘Seasoned’ by music, writing becomes a joyable activity that encourages students to dive into the world of infinite creativity.

  2. AnitaŽivković & Miranda Barac: Summative Assessment in Language Mediation
    Language mediation has been an integral part of language learning since it was introduced as an element of assessment in the two final years of high school several years ago. Since then, we have understood the concept of language mediation and introduced it into the classroom, creating compelling and engaging tasks and activities for our students to practise this skill, acquire strategies and become more competent mediators. However, many of us still have doubts and questions when evaluating and measuring a learner's ability to mediate a spoken or written text or texts in order to facilitate communication between two or more speakers or groups who, for whatever reason, cannot communicate directly. This workshop will provide sample activities and rubrics that should help you with the summative assessment of this relatively new skill in the English language curriculum.

  3. AnitaŽivković: The Reform of Vocational Education
    The world of work is changing significantly, and vocational education needs to adapt to stay ahead of these changes. The reform of vocational education aims to create a strong, unified and sustainable system that delivers the skills learners need to thrive. However, it is important to acknowledge that every change is stressful and the vocational education reform will have an impact on everyone working within the sector, including teachers of English as well.

  4. HUPE Split Branch President Elections
    The branch president is elected for a term of 2 years and takes over the management of the branch from September 1, 2023.
    The president is primarily responsible for the regular 'maintenance' of the membership, organizing branch meetings during the school year and exchanging information related to the work of theAssociation. Also, he or she participates in the organization of the HUPE conference together with Board members and other branch presidents. By volunteering at HUPE, you have the opportunity to collaborate with excellent colleagues, develop team spirit, improve the work of the Association, and make new international acquaintances.
