Università Roma Tre

The course is structured as to allow the implementation of the students’ linguistic competences, requiring on the side of the student to develop a professional-oriented awareness of the L2 learning and teaching modalities.
Pre-reading and post-reading activities, reading and listening comprehension will stimulate the students’ reflection and discussion on general-interest themes and provide useful topics for class-work, both at written and oral level. The constant use of English in the classroom will be encouraged, and students will be fostered to noticing the differences and similarities between L2 and L1.
Students will also be required to put their skills into practice during the course developing some tasks, both in international projecs and eTwinning, under the supervision of the teacher and involving the whole classroom. Such practical approach allows students to engage in methodological discussions, contributing to the application of storytelling and CLIL as well.
