We develop, share and disseminate free talk for learning activities in all subject areas and for all ages. We started out as a group of teachers working in multilingual London classrooms. We were funded by the Inner London Education Authority 1983-89 and the EU in the 1990s. We believe that teachers are more creative and develop more engaging and exciting resources when they plan and work collaboratively inside and outside the classroom. We explain in greater detail further down the page why Collaborative Learning is so important for teaching and learning and also provide a bibliography for those of you who would like to see more evidence. But if you don't have time at this moment, here it is:Excellent for all learners and vital for learners new to English! Collaborative Learning creates an EAL friendly classroom. It works well in CLIL classrooms too! Collaborative Learning is practitioner led, has evolved over the last thirty five years and is still evolving. We support a teacher network that shares resources that scaffold talk. Our activities can be used as they are, or tweaked a little to suit different classrooms or they can be an inspiration/a template for you to develop your own resources that we hope you will in turn share with us. We have three aims:First to develop resources that empower learners by encouraging them to work with every other learner, including new arrivals to English, in the class in a playful, but purposeful, way.
