A series of articles with teaching ideas based on topical issues to help interest and engage a class of teenagers. These articles were published by Onestopenglish in collaboration with Guardian Weekly.
Articles covered ideas and activities relating to Status Updates, World Peace Day, Activities that link to Space themes, What to do with a Guest visitor, Ideas to link with Summer Blockbuster films (of any year), Politics-themed activities and advice on how to set up an end-of-the-year quiz that works. I wrote this column for the Guardian Weekly for a total of one year and the articles are now kept at the Onestopenglish site.
