Section 1 - Language dimension
Target language
CEFR level
Communicative language activities
Communicative activities (Reception, Interaction, Production and Mediation) as mentioned in section 4.4 of the CEFR, pp. 57 (http://rm.coe.int/1680459f97#page=58)  (right click on the link and select 'open in a new window' to use both websites at the same time).
Communicative language activities the learner is engaged in
Check sections 4.4.1 to 4.4.4 of the CEFR, pp. 57-87 (http://rm.coe.int/1680459f97#page=58) (right click on the link and select 'open in a new window' to use both websites at the same time).
'Can Do' descriptors
Use descriptors in table 2, section 3.4, of the CEFR, pp. 26-7 (http://rm.coe.int/1680459f97#page=27) (right click on the link and select 'open in a new window' to use both websites at the same time).
Section 2 - Content dimension
Content area
(for example: Sciences; History; Geography; Literature)
Topic(s) or question(s) addressed
(for example: Photosynthesis; European Imperialism in Africa; Rural Exodus; Renaissance Drama)
Materials
Provide the reference(s) to the material(s) used (including texts, videos, pictures, websites, audio files, etc.)
Processing information from the materials provided
Describe how learners are going to process information related to the content area (analysis of content, identification of linguistic or diagrammatical markers, analysis of illustrations, etc.). Based on S. Darn (2006). Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL): A European Overview. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=ED490775
Identification and Organisation of Knowledge
Describe how learners are going to categorise ideas and information from the materials provided (namely through diagrams such as tree diagrams for classification, groups, hierarchies, flow diagrams and timelines for sequenced thinking such as instructions and historical information, tabular diagrams describing people and places, and combinations of these). Based on S. Darn (2006).
Language identification
Describe how useful language in the text is going to be highlighted (for example, subject specific and academic vocabulary, certain discourse markers, adverb phrases or prepositional phrases, collocations, semi-fixed expressions and set phrases). Also explain how that language can be categorised according to function (for example, comparison and contrast, location or describing a process).
Section 3 - Task design
For samples of tasks, visit the PETALL project page at http://petallproject.eu/petall/index.php/en/products-services/samples-of-tasks/tasks-overview (right click on the link and select 'open in a new window' to use both websites at the same time).
Duration of the task (minutes)
Situation / Theme(s)
Product
Specify what product or output is expected to result from the task. If you are looking for ideas of products, you can check this list of resources used in the project PETALL (http://petallproject.eu/petall/images/ICT_resources_14052018.pdf).
Process
Insert the process steps (in chronological order). Indicate what resources and materials are going to be used, how students are going to interact and/or collaborate, how they are going to produce or present their product, how the teacher is going to follow the whole process and provide support.
Division of roles
Include the division of roles (if any).
Consolidating activities suggested or follow-up plan
Describe reinforcers (activities aimed at memorizing or consolidating content or language).
