Synchronize

Transform your classroom into a collaborative learning environment and foster students’ interpersonal skills with a new and exciting approach to project work in the classroom. Motivate students to work together towards a common goal and apply language and skills to real situations. Step-by-step Project Builders that culminate in a final collaborative task make project-based learning manageable, time efficient and achievable for all classes!

Make learning relevant with meaningful topics, tasks and videos. Content rich unit videos provide students with realistic language models and keep them engaged with their learning. The Active Learning Kit is a digital self-study resource with gamified skills practice and interactive activities that helps students become competent autonomous learners.

Synchronize gives you everything you need to support your students, with a suite of extra resources such as mixed ability worksheets to tailor each student’s learning journey. The Test Generator allows you to customise evaluation, while students themselves reflect on their achievements in the iProgress Check and Student Learning Record.

• Learning Situations: 8 Learning Situations in every Student’s Book allows students to apply knowledge in a practical way, solving real-life problems through authentic situations. Learning Situations are presented at the start of each unit and integrated throughout the unit with the Project Builder. Assessment rubrics facilitate the implementation of Continuous assessment in the classroom. Enquiry-based learning platform Go Pangea gives further opportunities for Learning Situations based on UNSDGs while developing students’ digital competence.
• Competence-based learning: Synchronize ensures that the Key Competences are developed methodically. They are clearly highlighted in the Student’s Book and explained throughout the teacher’s notes.
• Continuous assessment: A complete assessment package includes cumulative termly exams. The iProgress Check, Project Coach and Learning Record sections of the Active Learning Kit encourage students to learn independently. With the Project Log, students keep a regular record of their collaborative work. Learning Situations in every unit provide the opportunity for peer and self-assessment.
• Mediation: Every unit includes Mediation activities throughout the Student Book and the iPack, to ensure the development of this language skill in the classroom. Teaching notes in the Teacher’s Guide include easy-to-understand explanations. Regular collaborative work in Project Builders and final Project tasks create the ideal environment for teaching and practising Mediation.
