Language awareness and learner autonomy. 4. Life long language learning in school and outside school. 5. Interculturalism and dialogue between cultures. 6. European citizenship and mobility within Europe.

9 The CEFR also introduces a self assessment grid: The 6 proficiency levels and 5 language skills combined into a grid designed to help identify one s linguistic profile. It is designed primarily as a framework of reference to assist selfassessment but can equally serve as a point of reference for language teachers, testers or course planners.
10 Self-assessment grid Subdirección general de cooperación internacional I can deal with most situations likely to arise whilst travelling in an area where the language is spoken. I can enter unprepared into conversation on topics that are familiar, of personal interest or pertinent to everyday life (e.g. family, hobbies, work, travel and current events).

It is a document where those who are learning or have learned a language can record their language learning and cultural experiences. It is diverse and versatile. It has pedagogic and reporting functions and it has three components

Language Biography: Tracks the language learning process from goal setting to review and recording of progress. 3. Dossier: Collection of sample evidence of language learning saved in a folder or binder.

36 How can teachers organize the lesson planning if they use the ELP? organize planning according to the descriptors and the levels of the CEFR use the ELP in partnership with planning: (I can do tasks without a textbook) adapt the use of the ELP to our planning. combine the introduction of the ELP with the normal pursuit of planning.
37 What can I do with my foreign languages? (ELP Activities ) linguistic reflection activities Prepare for Exams jointly with my friends. prepare comprehension questions for my partners Work on a specific descriptor or part of a descriptor Develop tasks for different descriptors.

41 What do the students say? The ELP helps me to show what I can do in other languages (90%) I like being responsible for my learning (100%) It seems useful as I can self-evaluate my progress. (84%) The class time dedicated to the ELP has been profitable. (100%) It is important that the Europeans learn at least two languages as well as their native language. (76%)
42 Conclusions The use of the ELP: It is versatile and flexible, so it is possible to adapt to different languages, levels and contexts. It allows us to teach and learn in a more reflective way. It clarifies the learning targets. It encourages lifelong learning. It allows learners to be more of a leader in the classroom.
