QLS participation at EAQUALS Conference, Lisbon April 2016

QLS participation at EAQUALS  25th Anniversary Conference , Lisbon, 22-23 April 2016

Learn how your learners learn.

Multiple Intelligence:  The Greek case. 
QLS (Quality Language Services), network of leading language schools in Greece, in 2015 administered the QLP MI Test (developed by Ariston Computer Academy and certified by the University of Nicosia), to 2.500 language learners in order to identify their individual learning profiles in accordance with Gardner’s MI theory.
The results of the test have proved invaluable to learners and teachers alike. Moreover, course designers will find them helpful in the production of future language course material. Knowing the profiles of individual members of a group enables teachers to cater for the eight different intelligences identified by Gardner by adapting the course material accordingly and providing differentiated instruction with all the concomitant benefits. Support material will be presented to illustrate how MI theory can be effectively applied in the FL classroom.
