These are mainly free and online, but I’ve included F2F conferences and workshops, so be sure to check the notes for fees. Please let me know in the comments if I’ve missed anything.

TITLE: Assessment in the AI Era: Encouraging creative thinking 

PRESENTER: Jenifer Goldblum 

DATES & TIMES: Saturday, 4th October 2025 – 15:00 (GMT) 

LANGUAGE: English  

ORGANISED BY: IATEFL 

TYPE OF EVENT: Free Webinar 

SUMMARY 

As AI tools become more embedded in education, the challenge for teachers is no longer simply preventing misuse but redesigning assessment to foster genuine learning. This webinar explores how to move away from tasks that are easily replicable by AI and towards assessment that promotes originality, critical thinking, and cognitive effort. By shifting the focus from recall to creativity, participants will discover how to design tasks that encourage meaningful engagement and reduce the temptation to copy and paste. 

The session reintroduces well-established pedagogical approaches through the lens of cognitive tools—strategies that support learners in constructing and expressing their own thinking. It also highlights how teachers can use emerging technologies as professional aids in planning, rubric design, and feedback, without compromising authenticity. 

The ideas shared are adaptable to a wide range of contexts and levels, and the session aims to offer practical inspiration for those looking to reflect on and refresh their current assessment practices in a rapidly evolving educational landscape.  


TITLE: AI and item writing for high stakes testing: insights from text and multiple-choice question generation

DATES & TIMES: Thursday, 9th October 2025 – 17:00 (GMT)

TYPE OF EVENT: Free Webinar

SUMMARY

We now live in an age of myriad opportunities to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI), especially large language models (LLMs), in a range of educational contexts. From a testing perspective this has included opportunities to develop secure, quality test content (including text passages and comprehension question for reading and listening tasks) using online platforms. In this session, we will discuss how one Awarding Organisation has implemented a process for item writing which exploits the available technology whilst adhering to best testing practice. We discuss how to use AI ethically and efficiently to generate test content, whilst keeping a place for human creativity and ingenuity. We consider the limitations and challenges that AI brings to the fore and consider a process of good practice for content development from the perspectives of both production and review.

TITLE: Beyond Intelligibility: Expanding Our Approach to Pronunciation Instruction

PRESENTERS: Various – programme to be confirmed

DATES & TIMES: Saturday, 25th October 2025 - 09:30 (GMT)

LANGUAGE: English

ORGANISED BY: IATEFL PronSIG

TYPE OF EVENT: Online event: Free for all IATEFL Pronsig members, Fee for IATEFL members: £7, Fee for non-members: £10

SUMMARY

Some real-life communication situations demand that the L2 pronunciation learned by our students go ‘beyond intelligibility’. While intelligibility remains a vital, primary and necessary goal which should continue to be a priority in our everyday teaching, in some circumstances, we have to do more than ensure that students can be understood by listeners and that they can understand others. In such cases, we may have to go ‘beyond intelligibility’ in order to find the most suitable means to provide support. But what do we mean by ‘beyond intelligibility’? And how might we identify effective ways to provide that support?

This one-day online event explores the additional factors which impact learners’ pronunciation and broader communicative competence, such as the role of fluency, prosody, pragmatics, speaker confidence, comprehensibility and the role of the listener. This theme also provides an opportunity to investigate finer points and dynamics such as interactional nuance and emotional expression in speech which can all be part of co-constructing effective communication.

This event is intended for educators and researchers who want to enrich their approach to pronunciation teaching, prioritise an evidence-based approach, and learn practical classroom-ready ideas enabling them to address pronunciation in a holistic, learner-centred way.
