Trim, John, Speech on the CEFR during the ACFTL-CEFR Symposium 2012
The symposium took place on 21-23 June 2012 at the European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML) in Graz, Austria. The goal for this event was to look at the implications of cross-walks between the ACTFL Guidelines and the CEFR for learning/teaching, for teacher training and for assessment/certification. At this occasion, John Trim made a speech on the CEFR pointing to its pedagogical and political foundations by highlighting the main educational influences under which the CEFR was written (tracing them back from the classical grammar to the communicative approach applied today); contrasts in the classical and modern paradigms: aims, objectives, attitudes to language, type of language to learn, preferred medium, model presented, text-types, criteria for expression and for comprehension, relation of knowledge to action, criteria for success, skill development, work style, relation among learners, approach to learning, role of teacher, teaching style, means employed, language of instruction and class management, approach to grammar and to meaning, concept of culture, social values, attitudes to change, strengths and critics of both paradigms; the political background and the consequences of the CEFR.
