Reflect ESOL: Dissemination Event

Date posted: 23 December 2008

Reflect ESOL: Dissemination Event
A combination of Paulo Freire’s philosophy and creative visual tools, the Reflect participatory
learning approach is used in developing countries for literacy development, community empowerment and social change.
Now piloted and adapted by ESOL teachers and evaluated by LLU+, the Reflect ESOL Project
is pleased to invite practitioners, managers and policy makers to discuss the project findings,
exchange experiences and consider the implications for policy and practice

“The messages from the Reflect ESOL pilot project are important and should be disseminated widely. We would recommend the Reflect approach to ESOL teachers as there is much to be gained by using these approaches in conjunction with the messages from other current research, such as ‘speaking from within’, ‘turning talk into learning’ (Cook and Roberts, 2007) and ‘responding to people’s lives’ (Appleby
and Barton, 2008)"
Pauline Moon and Helen Sunderland – LLU+ London South Bank University, 2008

- 16 January 2009, 14.30 – 17.00 – ActionAid, Archway – London
