Abstract

The contribution places itself in the background of the literature on Open Educational Resources (OERs), focusing on remote teaching during the COVID-19 emergency. The study aims at highlighting the potential of OERs for language learning and CLIL. Some findings from an online survey addressed to Italian language and CLIL teachers will be reported and commented on, with particular focus on remote language teaching during the pandemic: the use of OERs, webtools and videos was crucial to foster students’ language skills. However, listening, oral production and oral interaction turned out to be the most challenging to develop remotely. In order to foster those skills, OERs and video-based repositories and webtools such as YouTube, Ted-Ed, Europeana resulted very useful. As a general conclusion OERs, videos and webtools can be very effective to foster language competences, in particular oral skills, in remote and hybrid teaching.
