Editor's Notes
- Background: my interests in language education - writing (with support of computer-based tools) - critical literacy - second language learning (esp. writing and reading) [plus teaching of literature and film] [ I’m now going back to teach in secondary school and this is a description of something I have only discussed with colleagues and not tried out with students of mother tongue ] The ideas proposed in this presentation will be tried out in the next months within ‘text analysis’ and ‘Italian cinema’ courses for Danish university students. My medium-term project, however, is to create a repository of film dialogues for fostering language awareness in Italian secondary school and for advanced students of L2-Italian.
