Abstract

Living in a world of advanced technology, today’s teachers are in a constant search for finding new ways of stimulating and engaging young learners into foreign language learning keeping in mind their needs and interest, but also following the curriculum guidelines. This thesis emphasizes the importance and benefits of using picturebooks, and adequately integrating digital media into a foreign language classroom. It also provides ideas for organizing and running a project based on appropriate, authentic picturebook connected with the use of new media. The project focuses on developing children’s language skills, learning strategies, media literacy, and creativity.

Abstract (croatian)

Tehnologija svakim danom sve više napreduje, dok današnji učitelji konstantno traže nove načine kako bi mlade učenike potaknuli i zainteresirali za učenje stranog jezika. Učitelji se vode smjernicama propisanima Kurikulumom za nastavu engleskog jezika prilikom planiranja nastavnog sata, no isto tako trebaju uzeti u obzir učenikove potrebe i interese. Ovaj rad naglašava važnost korištenja slikovnica, pa tako i njihovih prednosti, te integraciju digitalnih medija u nastavu stranog jezika. Rad također predlaže na koji način organizirati i provesti projekt temeljen na slikovnici, a određene aktivnosti projekta povezane su s upotrebom novih medija. Projekt je osmišljen u svrhu razvoja učeničkih jezičnih vještina, strategija učenja, medijske pismenosti i kreativnosti.
