With the explosion of available materials online, teachers have more opportunity than ever to create lively, relevant, cutting-edge lessons to engage their students. This session will focus on a range of authentic materials, each of which can be developed into lessons for novice, intermediate, and advanced learners, through a process of "changing the task, not the text," and a sequence of graded tasks to help learners intake information inductively as well as explicitly. Examples are in Chinese, but the approach is usable with any language.
