Each paper was co-authored by the mentor, Prof Vaneva, and one at-a-time alumni: ‘Vocabulary instruction in the Macedonian EFL primary classroom: are teachers aware of the teaching strategies?’ by Vaneva, Jovcheska; ‘Information technology in the Macedonian language teaching classroom’ by Vaneva, Petkovska; and ‘The use of internet for learning English in high schools in Bitola’ by Vaneva, Ivanovska. The abstracts were well received and the full papers were sent to be published in the conference proceedings.
