Abstract

Multimedia facilities can help to promote the development of learners' autonomy both when they are exploited as analytical tools, as channels of communication that connect learners to the outside world, or to provide examples of language use. Nowadays it is of paramount importance for students to become aware of the current changes in the nature of English, employed as an international lingua franca in interactions between speakers who do not share the same mother tongue. This, in turn, warrants a re-evaluation of the ELT curriculum drafting. The present contribution reports on a project carried out at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, aimed at increasing the students' awareness of the current status of English as a lingua franca, meanwhile sensitising them towards the need to enrich their learning process.
