Die pädagogische Praxis des Fremdsprachenlernens an freien Schulen
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Jul 1, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The Bildungswerkstatt Knittlingerhof is a free school, in which children as far as possible learn autonomously . Therefore the school is devided into different learning and activity areas. Each area offers suitable learning material and is mentored and supervised by a teacher. To enable children to learn foreign languages autonomously, it is necessary that they come in contact with foreign languages naturally. The aim of our project is to get new ideas of how foreign languages can be integrated in a free school like ours in every day´s school life and to implement those ideas. Since the teachers are alternately responsible for each learning area in the Bildungswerkstatt Knittlingerhof and are working together in a pedagogical team, each of them is responsible for the practical implementation of the pedagogical concept. For this reason it is important for us that all of them have the chance to get an insight into the educational practice of other free schools in Europe. We are planning job-shadowings for two days in free schools in England and Italy. For the seven participants, who are teachers at the Bildungswerkstatt Knittlingerhof, this is an opportunity to extend their knowledge of language learning methods and subsequently integrate them into the educational practice of our school. Foreign languages ought to become a natural part of everyday school life in our school, in order to reduce the inhibition towards foreign languages and increase the language competences of the students as well as those of the teachers.
