CONNECTED LEARNING
Collaborative hybrid teaching-learning modules
Connecting teachers and students for 21st century learning
Our eight thematic modules provide high school teachers with super-engaging English lessons for student collaboration. Broad yet inclusive themes match various national curricula, including the CEFR and core competences.
How does it work? What does CONNECTED LEARNING COLLABORATION mean?
The TEACHER - chooses one or more thematic modules from the list below to set up a 2-week collaborative session with other students from other schools, cities, or countries.
The TEACHER contacts other teachers - it may be via our international Facebook group - to agree upon the dates for the 2-week period to implement the collaborative session.
Then for the chosen 2 weeks - STUDENTS complete their thematic module tasks according to the clear, step by step instructions provided for each lesson in the module
The TEACHER - facilitates student learning and provides support and guidance in the classroom
The STUDENTS - collaborate with their class peers or students from other schools to independently achieve their set goals.
Each thematic module contains completely prepared lesson plans. In each module, teachers can choose to complete 4, 6, or 8 lessons (each approx. 45 minutes of time engagement) that help students develop essential 21st century skills through individual and collaborative tasks, set at A2-C1 English proficiency level on the CEFR scale (see CEFR comparison with TOEFL or IELTS scores).
Each module also contains an intercultural element that broadens global understanding and enhances positive learning mindsets.
