FAZ - Educational Resources

Main outcomes produced by me (Kent Andersen) are:


In 2018 FAZ became a partner in the COOL project (CLIL Online Open Learning), which was a 36 months Erasmus+ project coordinated by UNIVERSITAT POLITECNICA DE VALENCIA, The CLIL Open Online Learning (COOL) project involved a consortium of partners with a combined wealth of experience inlanguage pedagogy and the training of teachers. The project developed resources and training for teachers in the HE sectorwith a specific focus on increasing the uptake of the Content and Language Integrated Learning methodology, which has a proventrack record of success in other sectors, but had not yet been widely adopted in the HE sector.

In 2023 I started finding ways of combining ai and Language learning/teaching: E.g. Use of ChatGPT in Clilstore (https://Clilstore.eu): One can use ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com) to prepare Clilstore units for students at different ELP levels. An example: Go to ChatGPT and enter “What is a Wankel motor”, copy the produced text and enter “Rewrite the following text to ELP level B1:” followed by pasting the copied text.
The ELP A1 unit can be tested from https://clilstore.eu/cs/11506 which has links to three levels C1, B1, and A2. One advantage of Clilstore is that all words are linked to dictionaries in numerous languages.


In 2024 I learned that the safety4el.net website was being discontinued. I then recovered most of the content and prepared a new site https://safety.faz.dk where you can find materials and online exercises in five languages (English, Dansk, Español, Ελληνικ, and Malti). The content prepares employees and students for carrying out risk assessment for situations in building and construction, e.g. electricians, carpenters, masons, and many more crafts.

The https://safety.faz.dk materials comprise a number of safety cases (complete with multimedia, lesson plans, student handouts, and teacher notes), 11 online training units covering the content from the tests used by the Scottish Joint Industry Board for Electrical Contracting Industry, and safety reports describing the national differences and giving recommendations for safety courses (onsite and online).
