Concept of being a world citizen necessitates multiculturalism and multilingualism, so language learning has to be effective and efficient. In order to be able to satisfy the learning needs of today’s child, all language learning materials should be strengthened so that the acquired knowledge is applicable and can be used in daily life. In addition, the recent students need to be taught with more tactile, auditory visual materials and games. In the 90s and later, language learning evolved into a more communicative way; it became more oriented towards daily use of language. With this need, methods such as Communicative Learning and Task Based Approach were started to be implemented. Another method, CLIL, has taken the innovation one step further as it contains other courses into foreign language courses. However, at all stages, foreign Language was limited only inside the foreign language classes. With the new approach we want to create in this project, we intend to remove the walls around the foreign language and integrate the target language into other school subjects by the means of the curricula applied in the countries of each of our partners. The main purpose of our project, besides the Foreign Language Curriculum, is to integrate the target language into the curriculum of two school subjects as a start. We aim to achieve this by creating a new common curriculum for the lessons we will determine together, by creating materials suitable for the lessons, lesson plans, a digital dictionary, an open material resources portal and by increasing the current sufficient foreign language skills of our teachers who teach in the course areas we have determined.

This approach serves for the priority of Promoting a comprehensive approach to language teaching and learning. In addition, with the studies we will carry out with our university partner, it will contribute to our second priority which is ‘Stimulating innovative learning and teaching practices’ Since our project was created to use digital learning tools, an open education portal and based on the technological learning needs that have become very important after the COVID-19 pandemic process in the education sector, it is based on the horizontal priority ‘Addressing digital transformation through development of digital readiness, resilience and capacity’.

By integrating foreign language into other lesson fields, it is aimed to increase the level of foreign language skills in other lesson fields’ teachers. In this way, it will contribute to the target of learning at least two foreign languages besides the mother tongue, which is among the EU 2030 targets. It also complies It complies with concept of multilingualism in the EU goals and the concept of Supporting teachers, school leaders and other teaching professions. We aim to establish transnational cooperation, to work together to develop a new approach to foreign language learning and to build capacity of organizations to work transnationally.
