This document discusses using blogs, podcasts, and Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) to improve motivation and learning in modern language classrooms. Blogs allow students to publish work internationally, receive peer feedback, and assess their own learning. Podcasts help students practice speaking and learn outside of class through activities like role-plays and grammar exercises. CLIL incorporates topics from other subjects into language lessons, providing real-world context and cultural awareness while developing both communication and thinking skills.
