In the last semesters, the ILM (Modern Languages Institute) has geared to a project-based methodology in the teaching of languages. In Project-Based Learning, students are the protagonists of their own learning. They acquire knowledge of a specific subject (in our case, ingles as a foreign language) and at the same time they also develop a series of transversal abilities and attitudes that will be very useful in their academic life and in their professional future: ability for team work, communication, persuasion negotiation and decision taking skills, ability to solve problems\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

With all these linguistic tools, students, in groups of four, had to decide the market niche target for their hotel (extreme sports holidays, romantic holidays, family holidays\u2026) and visit websites of similar hotels to look for a bit of inspiration. Thus, we could establish a common structure for all the groups\u2019 websites, regardless of the market niche the wanted to focus on:<\/span><\/p>\n
