Title
Multikultur@ - University of Cambridge Language Aspiration Project
Description
MultiKultur@ offers a free virtual immersion Academy for culturally-based Modern Foreign Language (MFL) learning. Created by the Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages, University of Cambridge it is a project primarily devoted to motivating pupils of Modern Languages, with the hope that they will one day aspire to study at University level.
Effective learning can only take place in an environment which stimulates genuine inquiry on the part of the learner. We deliberately provide materials, which are firmly set in the cultural context of the target language. We want our students' learning to be driven along by this strong sense of curiosity.
All materials are part of a broader learning package. Learners can interact with the online activities to confirm their understanding of the cultural and language content, but also come to a deeper understanding of their significance by making links with other areas and subjects of study that will encourage them to make evaluations in the light of their own experiences.
