What did we change? Score of +/- (I am not sure if I can do) Instructions (but it is still not enough) The role of the teachers
What did we not achieve (yet)? A version of the ELP in English A flexible construction of the passport The change of users profile Developing a lot of learning activities Working with teachers takes much more time than we expected because of……. –A lack of information on CEF –The consequences working with ELP make changes in didactics necessary –Still difficult to get it in the curriculum
