The C Group

"The C Group is not so much an organization with a dogma but a collection of individuals and a cluster of ideas – many of which the members hold in common. The initial point of contact is our shared conviction that creativity can be reinforced in ELT through collective action."

Some of the projects these professionals have created or led are very interesting:

• BritLit was originally established in Portugal to help teachers in secondary schools to work effectively with the extended reading texts (short stories) in the national curriculum. Since then it has become a global resource and offers access to texts and supporting material for the whole school range of English language teaching.
• The ELT Online Reading Group is an electronic version of a face-to-face reading group. The Group was created in 2007, with the support of the British Council, to encourage ELT professionals and TESOL students to read literature in English,  as well as promote professional development and intercultural competence through the discussion of works literature. 
• The Easier English wiki New Internationalist was started in 2012 as a free collection of simplified articles about global justice, from the co-operative New Internationalist. It now has hundreds of articles, which are added to every month; and, for teachers, over fifty Ready  Lessons, and many quizzes, infographics and  other  teaching ideas.
