Abstract

Mediation, technology, and plural approaches: A pedagogical proposal for teacher training

 

The Companion Volume of the CEFR (2020) includes the concept of mediation, defining it and highlighting its role in language education, with a particular focus on its connection to the development of plurilingual and pluricultural competences. In the literature, there are various studies on mediation in language teaching (Dendrinos, 2006; González-Davies, 2020). However, there is still a lack of specific focus on the integration of technology and mediation within a task-based and pluralistic approach to teaching. The aim of this contribution is to provide some qualitative and quantitative data, collected through questionnaires and tasks in collaboration with the European project TEMPLATE (https://templateplurilingualism.eu/), on teachers’ ability to include and teach mediation by integrating it with the use of ICT in plurilingual tasks. Based on the data collected, a pedagogical proposal is presented to improve teacher training on this topic. The proposal consists of a training course that includes theoretical modules (mediation, plurilingualism, technology) as well as more practical components (textbook analysis, development of plurilingual mediation tasks with the integration of technology).
