AALE Toolkit
The Toolkit’s Development ℹ️
The AALE Toolkit is the product of significant collaboration between scholars in applied linguistics and language education and teachers across Canada who work in a variety of language classrooms.
Inspired by the deep connections between plurilingualism, AoA, and Tech-mediated, AALE conceptualizes the toolkit as a constellation of resources.
The constellation metaphor highlights the non-linear dynamic vision that the AoA foregrounds, with teachers and students exerting their agency by making targeted choices and reflecting on the teaching/learning process.
Our Goal 🎯
Is not to offer additional rules or prescriptions you must remember when teaching, but to provide advice and examples of innovative practice to inspire your own creations and to support your (and your students’) agency.
The toolkit provides guidance, ideas, and suggestions for teachers to create their own materials, lessons, scenarios, and curricula based on innovative approaches to language education.
Toolkit’s Temporary Closure 🔒
Access to the AALE digital toolkit will remain private until the study’s data collection is complete. We’re currently immersed in the last phase of the study, during which participating teachers will explore and use the toolkit. Once this phase is complete, the toolkit will be made publicly available.
