From the Conference Conveners Henry Ford is believed to have once said, "Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young".
I am sitting writing this on my birthday and I definitely do not feel old. Whether that is because I keep on learning I am not sure, but I strongly believe in the idea of continually learning to improve yourself and your mind.
ETAI provides a way for English teachers to be continually learning, in order to develop both as individuals and as members of the teaching profession. We learn by ourselves, we learn from our fellow teachers and we learn from our students. It was this idea of being able to learn from everyone that helped us develop the theme of this year's conference: Teachers = Learners = Teachers. Many of the wonderful presentations that you will be able to hear show us how we can learn, why we should learn, and how important this learning process is.
A new feature of this year's conference is a session entitled Focus Groups. Instead of choosing who you would like to hear speak on a particular topic, you will have the opportunity to contribute fully to a discussion and learning session focusing on a type of teaching situation that you are involved in. Choose wisely and you will be able to gain a lot from this new type of learning situation which embodies the precept of teachers = learners = teachers.
I hope you have an enjoyable and fruitful experience at this year's ETAI summer conference in Jerusalem.
Susan Bedein together with Eleanor Satlow
Conference Conveners
From the Chair Teachers=Learners=Teachers, this year’s conference theme, expresses what English teachers are about: constantly updating, improving, and developing our skills as ELT professionals. Once again the ETAI team has assembled a collage of varied lectures and workshops where colleagues can network, share and learn from each other across the different age levels that we teach and the different parts of Israel that we represent. Once again we are gathering in the rooms and halls of the Academy High School on the Givat Ram Campus to connect with old friends and make new professional and social contacts. ETAI is proud to present this summer’s roster of excellent presenters who will be enriching us with a broad range of topics over two jam-packed days. So whether you teach in elementary school, university or in-between, are high-tech or low, veteran or just starting out, there are sessions in this program geared for you to learn and teach from, to use in the classroom and to share with your colleagues and your students.
Enjoy every minute of the conference, and we look forward to getting together at ETAI events during the coming school year. And mark your calendars now:

Laura Major Teaching Poetry as an Opportunity to Model Openness to Learning Poetry instruction is the perfect avenue to model an openness to learning from others. Because there are so many interpretive possibilities in poetry, the teacher can step back comfortably from having to provide THE correct answer or interpretation. This opens a door for students to come up with ideas and interpretations and for the teacher to accept new ideas and model this acceptance of student input. My presentation will include examples and tips for keeping poetry instruction interactive and productive.
