It’s now time to set the challenges!! To make the learning-to-learn more specific to language learning, this step helps you locate the specific language elements that you want to develop.
The Challenge Cards make the process easier and can either be used as they are or you can use them as inspiration. Adapt them to suit your needs and set specific learning goals!
The Challenge Cards are based on the CEFR language framework, meaning that the totality of the challenges is framed to cover each of the CEFR categories, which are as follows:
Comprehension:
- Oral comprehension

Production:

- Written production
Interaction:
