Information Day 24 October Learning in Tandem to Encourage Reciprocal Autonomous Learning in Adults
Information Day 24 October Learning from each other “Tandem learning takes place when members of two different language communities form a collaborative partnership with the aims of: a) learning each other’s mother tongue; b) learning about each other; and c) learning more about the culture to which each of them belongs. When working in Tandem, both partners alternate between learning a second language and acting not as teachers but as expert informants on their own language and culture.” (Stickler & Lewis, in press)
