.: EuroLinguaICT : Pedagogical approach :.

Each participating institution will design the curricula in the most suitable way for the own situation, on the basis of a needs analysis. In this needs analysis the target group will be clearly defined and the required knowledge and skills will be identified on the basis of official (national and/or European) policy documents and recommendations in this field. Due to the differences in the various countries involved, a diversity of pedagogical and didactical approaches is to be expected. However, the following common core of general didactical insights will be met in all curricula:

teachers will develop a critical attitude and learn to assess the ‘added value' of the use of new technologies in various teaching situations

eachers will learn to design, revise and improve learning environments with the support of new technologies, in order to make the language learning process more effective

For this purpose quality control instruments will be developed and applied. When necessary, we will refer to European standards in the field of ICT (ECDL) and in the field of language teaching (Common European Framework of Reference).
