Autonomous Learning: video tasks for teenagers and adults by the British Council

Aim: this British Council site contains videos with pre-watching and post watching tasks for teenagers but most of the topics should appeal to adults too.

 Click HERE to access the British Council videos for teens page.

Level: the level of the tasks are indicated under each video. Most I have seen are B1 or B2 but check for other levels.
This site belongs to the British Council
Topics: there is a very wide range of topics, from food, tourism and street art to homes of the future and European integration. See below for somme suggestions.

Procedure: Videos come with:
  • on line self corrective pre-watching and post watching tasks.
  • a printable version of the same  tasks that the teacher may bring to class. The t
These tasks could be carried out:
  • by the students on their own.
  • in class by projecting the on-line tasks on the White Board.
  • in class, with the help of the teacher by distributing a photocopiable version of the tasks.
Suggestions:
B1 - Multicultural Britain: HERE
B1- Food in Britan: HERE
