COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING - Learners learn a language through using it to communicate - Goal of classroom activities: authentic and meaningful communication - Involves the integration of different language skills

CALL

CALL = Computer Assisted Language Learning Why is CALL useful to have success? 1. It gives IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK -> it is TIME SAVING both for students and teachers and helps increasing students' AUTONOMY 2. It allows teachers and students to do COMMUNICATIVE and INTERACTIVE activities -> increases students' MOTIVATION 3. It allows to acquire ICT COMPETENCES to use in a work environment

BLENDED LEARNING Blend between TRADITIONAL TEACHING and e-teaching taking the advantages from both into a single approach to teaching

The use of technology develops DIGITAL COMPETENCES: 1. Information and data literacy -> store, manage and organise digital data, information and content 2. Communication and collaboration -> being aware of cultural and generational diversity and to participate in society through public and private digital services 3. Digital content creation -> turn knowledge and information into digital content 4. Safety -> protect devices, content, personal data and privacy in digital environments understanding how copyright and licences are to be applied 5. Problem-solving -> identify needs and problems and resolve situations in digital environments

Using EDUCANDY you can: - CREATE interactive learning games in a few minutes in order to improve grammar and vocabulary - SHARE the activity with all your students - PLAY the game you have created with your students choosing the device that you prefer

CONTENT LANGUAGE INTEGRATED LEARNING - English becomes a medium of instruction (EMI) - Lessons of other subjects in English allows to give more IMPUTS - The more time students spend listening to English, the BETTER their ENGLISH will be

TASK-BASED APPROACH - Goal-oriented communicative activity--> SPECIFIC OUTCOME + emphasis is on EXCHANGING MEANINGS, not producing specific language forms - PRE-TASK= Eliciting, Content preparation, Language preparation, Task preparation - TASK= Task planning, Task performance, Reflection on learning - POST TASK= Feedback, Language focus

PROJECT BASED LEARNING - Students gain knowledge and skills by working for an EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME to investigate and respond to an AUTHENTIC and complex problem or CHALLENGE - Projects encourage the use of HOTS (=higher-order thinking skills = ANALYSING, EVALUATING, CREATING, according to the Bloom's Taxonomy)

MULTILITERACIES - multiform communications are combined with students' multi-situacional lifeworlds - emphasis on creativity, critical thinking and cultural connections in order to reach linguistic and emotional growth in the language classroom
