Abstract

The paper aims at describing an online training initiative (Learning Event)
promoted by eTwinning focused on CLIL (Content and Language Integrated
Learning) and on ICT.
After a brief overview of the theoretical and methodological framework underlying the two “souls” of the initiative, the paper will try to depict the
processes of discovering, learning, experimentation and socialization activated
in the participants, directly referring to their comments and remarks
collected through the initial and final questionnaire.
Examples of materials produced during the course and excerpts of the
teachers’ interactions in the forum and on the blog will help understand
how training episodes such this one may enhance teachers’ professional
development and improve teaching practices, also considering the latest
Reform Law (Law 107/2015) and the recently approved National Teacher
Training Plan (2016-2019).
