Welcome to bel's book of social distancing games! Let's be honest – coronavirus and its consequences have had a huge impact on everybody and all aspects of our lives. It has not been easy, but teachers everywhere have risen to the challenge. Classes have been taking place online, via telephone conferences, and slowly but surely, back in the classroom. bel always tries to meet the needs of both students and teachers. On this occasion – particularly mindful that fun is more important than ever – we have put together a compendium of games that can be played by classes whilst keeping to the social distancing guidelines and rules. Teachers and students alike can have fun, play with the English language, socialise, learn, and not be defeated by something that is 400 times smaller than the thickness of a single human hair. The games generally require little in the way of preparation. Some need a board or flipchart, some need pen and paper, and some need nothing at all. None of the games are reliant on the students interacting closely with each other. Everybody can keep their distance. It only remains for us to say: have fun, be safe, and stay healthy!

English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) is een hot topic door de internationalisering van hoger onderwijs. EMI wordt daardoor meer en meer onderzocht, maar er zijn nog steeds weinig praktische gidsen beschikbaar. Dit handboek biedt een breed spectrum aan opties om docenten klaar te stomen voor EMI. Teaching through English verdeelt de focus tussen pedagogische en taalkundige ondersteuning. Daarnaast deelt het boek theoretische overzichten en onderzoeksinzichten, en vormen diepgaande vragen en authentieke input de basis voor interactieve discussies. Via eCampusLearn wordt extra materiaal beschikbaar gesteld. Deze veelzijdigheid zorgt voor een correcte aanpak afgestemd op het type coaching dat al door onderwijsinstellingen wordt aangeboden of op de individuele behoeften van een deelnemende docent. Zo vergroot de docent zijn taalkundige nauwkeurigheid en academische reikwijdte.
