Bringing Europe into the Foreign Languages Classroom - Module, September 2010, Augsburg (Germany)

Submitted on 12/20/2010, by Jonathan

The aim of this seminar was to raise awareness of the new European Network of Language Teachers, to help to enrich language teachers’ skills by reflecting together on ways in which to motivate pupils, to create a platform for cooperation and exchange between teachers of different languages in Europe. It was held in September 2010 at the University of Augsburg as part of the Congress of the German Federation of Language Teacher Associations (GMF).

Resources

The results of REAL seminars have been compiled in the Teacher Resources section of our website. As our network grows, we hope to be able to add to this bank of resources drawing on the input and advice of all of our members. We believe that one of REAL’s core responsibilities should be to allow to teachers to share new ideas and best practice.
