These tasks include (1) searching for language resources and contemporary texts of different types to be commented on and shared on the e-learning platform (forum); (2) group role-playing exercises (debates) and individual oral presentations; (3) writing abstracts, summaries and reports; (4) listening, reading and multimedia comprehension of authentic oral, written or multimedia materials; (5) reflection on learning outcomes.
