Italian Education Ministry engages goFLUENT to help children perfect English language skills
The Italian Ministry of Education has become the second European government department – following France’s Education Ministry – to get goFLUENT, the European leader in distance English training, to provide English language learning for schoolchildren.
This latest pilot programme, begun in November last year and organised by goFLUENT, links children at Rome’s Piva Caesar Middle School – via videoconferencing technology – with English native speakers who are English language teachers based in the USA.
Using only an internet connection, a computer with a sound system, a webcam and a video projector, 22 children participated in this innovative learning process which complements traditional English Teaching methods. Every child took part in ten of these web-delivered lessons, each of which lasted for 30 minutes.
Both the on-site teacher and the US-based trainer support complement each other’s role in the classroom. The classroom teachers play a key role because they are responsible for making goFLUENT’s interactive lessons meet the requirements of the Italian Ministry of Education.
Sally Van Dyke, one of the teachers, said: “It was amazing to see how quickly the students’ familiarity with English improved. It was clear that the concepts that they had already acquired in the classroom were greatly enriched by goFLUENT’s training.”
The pilot project marks the second time that goFLUENT has worked with a national government to teach English to its children. Since 2008, in conjunction with France’s Education Ministry, goFLUENT has made its brand of English language training available to children in the le Havre area of France.
This project involves 1,000 schools, of which 40 – in Périgueux – took part in a pilot programme in 2008. Then, in 2009, the training was extended to children in Rosny-sous-Bois and, subsequently, to children aged nine to 12 in the city of le Havre and the surrounding area.
Christophe Ferrandou, goFLUENT’s CEO, explained: “Involvement in one of our programs – whether you’re a child or an adult – gives you a head-start when learning English because you learn true English pronunciation quickly and effortlessly from native-speaking teachers. You get the chance to learn a new language and appreciate a new culture as well.
“Our experience – now in both France and Italy – in providing distance English training via videoconferencing to young people has shown that our teaching method is particularly well suited to teaching them English, given the familiarity that most of them already have with the internet. And the students’ feedback shows that they are happy with the structure, content and outcome of the lessons.”
Nicola Musazzi, goFLUENT’s Country Manager in Italy, commented: “The added value of our approach is shown in its playful and experiential approach to learning – and students of all ages benefit from the simplicity of the programme’s construction as well as its high degree of personal interaction with the teachers.”
Ferrandou added: “Using videoconferencing technology is an ideal way to introduce students – not just in Italy and France but all over the world – to native English speakers without the need to disrupt anyone’s life by a lot of travelling, thus avoiding the costs and the adverse effects on the environment that such travel brings. Moreover, using this technology to deliver the learning gets around the difficulty of finding native English speakers in the students’ locality.”
The results of the pilot programme in Rome are now being analysed and are being shared with other Italian schools via the InnovaScuola web portal (http://www.innovascuola.gov.it). InnovaScoula is an initiative of Italy’s Department for the digitisation of public administration and technological innovation along with the country’s Ministry of Education University and Research.

Parent Handbook on Getting Children Ready for Learning $27.29 According to the national Network of Partnership Schools, for parent involvement to flourish, it must be meaningfully integrated into a schools programs and community. The network identified two very important things that schools can use to guide their efforts. It says schools can: (1) Help families with parenting and childrearing skills; and (2) Encourage families to be involved in learning activities at home; You will find that these strategies are at the core of this handbook which can be used to help parents learn how to appropriately engage their children. When schools, families, and community groups work together to support learning, children tend to do better in school, stay in school longer, and like school more. Thats the conclusion of a recent report from the Southwest Educational Development Laboratory. The report, a synthesis of research on parent involvement over the past decade, goes on to find that, regardless of family income or background, students with involved parents are more likely to: Earn higher grades and test scores, and enroll in higher level programs; Be promoted pass their classes, and earn credits; Attend school regularly; Have better social skills, show improved behavior, and adapt well to school; and Graduate and go on to postsecondary education.

The Future of Learning $221.36 The goal of The Future of Learning is to publish multidisciplinary discussions that contribute to improving the education of children and adults of all ages anywhere on earth. These improvements must be founded on well thought out educational methodologies and policies and a better understanding of human learning. They can involve information technology (elearning, Internet, broadband) but only as a support tool, not as an end in itself. The book identifies factors that contribute to the current crisis in education, which is now felt throughout the world. It reports on some innovative projects that give hope for the future, and surveys recent results in cognitive neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and educational psychology. This volume also examines the potential uses of broadband and mass media in supporting education. Author: Tokoro, M./ Steels, L.
