Introduction

The aim of this module of the training programme is to facilitate the understanding of the viewed content through a series of good practices. To this end, three real cases developed in different countries will be analysed:

  • Case study 1: Montessori Methodology in Language training.
  • Case study 2: Virtual technologies and realities for learning foreign languages.
  • Case study 3: Learning games for dyslexic young adults.

These three case studies have been selected due to the nature of each of them, in this way we can show that new initiatives can be implemented in different areas and in many different ways. The first one is a proposal of a new methodology, the second one the creation of an online training and development of learning games.
