The theme will be: Have literacy at heart.

The speaker will be Roy Lyster who is Emeritus Professor of Second Language Education at McGill University. His research focuses on content-based second-language education and the effects of pedagogical interventions designed to counterbalance the gap between teaching the language and teaching the content. His research also focuses on professional development and teacher collaboration for the purpose of integrated language learning and the development of bi-literacy. He is the author of Vers une approche intégrée en immersion published by CEC Publishing in 2016.
