THE EUROPEAN PORTFOLIO OF LANGUAGES: ITS IMPACT AND DEVELOPMENT IN ALBANIA

Summary/Abstract: Generally speaking, teaching and learning could be better carried out through discussions and debates with others, and the results obtained in this way then turn into means of encouraging, helping, stimulating and informing thus making it possible for us to achieve an individual reflection.There might be people who try to link the word Portfolio with the world of Arts and Projects. This is true to some extend but there exist other components such as the Language Section and Language Biography, which in fact are closely connected with the world of learning and teaching and are part of the guidelines approved by the Council of Europe (Portofoli Evropian i Gjuhëve: Një Udhëzues për Mësuesit dhe Trajnuesit e Mësuesve, Ministria e Arsimit dhe Shkencës, Këshilli i Europës, 2005.) As a result of the use of Portfolio of Languages the teaching aims became clearer, students started to see their progress with ease. It served as a motivation for all, quick and slow learners, it helped increase self-awareness, it developed critical thinking, etc. It improved teachers’ motivation, their reflecting ability and encouraged them to undertake initiatives during the teaching process.
