PLANNING & TESTING
Pages 
  full of papers and links on everything we do before we go into the classroom 
  - from materials production and lesson planning to the higher order design of 
  syllabus and course planning. The testing page attempts to cover everything 
  from the latest buzz on alternative assessment to how we can ensure we are testing 
  what we want in short classroom quizes. The ELT management page looks more towards 
  the support we require as classroom teachers and an area some may well move 
  towards.
