A framework of reference for pluralistic approaches

Teaching and learning materials

This database aims to facilitate teachers access to educational materials relevant to pluralistic approaches to languages and cultures. This way they will be able to help learners appropriate their knowledge, attitudes, and skills as described in the lists of descriptors. The materials, available to download, can be selected according to various criteria: objectives (as expressed by the FREPA descriptors), levels of training, thematic areas, the type of pluralistic approach, and the language of instruction.

2012.R005 - BELGIUM

Short description:
This version of the European Language Portfolio was developed by Integration Centre Foyer Brussels. The model has been validated in 2012 by the Council of Europe.
Level of instruction:
Primary

Description
It is designed to support pupils aged 6 to 12 years learning the major national languages of Belgium (French and Dutch) but also in the learning of Rumanian, Turkish, Spanish and Italian.
It is based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and it corresponds to the levels A1, A2 and B1.
The ELP is available in four multilingual versions:
- Dutch-French-Rumanian
- Dutch-French-Turkish
- Dutch-French-Spanish
- Dutch-French-Italian
The portfolio encourages pupils to reflect on their knowledge of languages and to develop their language learning not only at school but also at home or during their leisure activities. The purpose of the portfolio is to stimulate the autonomy of the learners and to valorise their knowledge of languages and intercultural skills.
By using this portfolio pupils also reflect on how they study a language; Howard Gardener’s theory of multiple intelligences is used to make suggestions on facilitating language learning.
