FREPA. A Framework of Reference for Pluralistic Approaches – a tool for teachers, European Center for Modern Languages, Europarådet

The term pluralistic approaches to languages and cultures refers to didactic approaches which involve the use of several (or at least more than one) varieties of languages or cultures simultaneously during the teaching process. By abandoning the “compartmentalised” view of an individual’s linguistic and cultural competence(s), this publication is a valuable step towards implementing the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, in particular its rationale on plurilingual and intercultural competence.
