Supplemental Self-Help in English as a Foreign Language for Learners with Specific Learning Differences/ Difficulties

Description

In spite of Brexit, English remains the dominant language in Europe, as 2 out of 3 people have at least a fair working knowledge of the language. Nonetheless, difficulties in different areas of language acquisition and use remain widespread. For many, if not most, learners of English, speaking in public may be the biggest fear. However, for many others, reading, writing, listening, memory retention, or learning itself is just as challenging. To help learners with Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLDs) master the specific skills that they need, our consortium of 7 partners has developed 7 self-help learning modules as Open Educational Resources (OERs). They cover the domains of public speaking, interpersonal communication, intercultural motivation, writing, memory and vocabulary acquisition, learning in general as well as reading and listening. Each self-study module is an individual course and learners may complete as many modules as they see fit. To help learners identify which modules are most suitable for them we have also developed a self-assessment tool. The modules contain strategies, tools and techniques that learners can implement right away to improve their skills and overall competence. While the materials are designed for self-study, they can also be used as supplementary materials by language teachers or facilitators. The materials are rich in multimedia and we have also included videos. The materials contain hundreds of animations and cartoons to visualize the text, provide context and engage learners. Furthermore, the materials can be also be printed or downloaded for offline use.
