TOOLS has developed a free online tool, which enables you to create media rich webpages for language learning. The unique feature of this free online tool is the way it treats embedded texts, at the touch of a button all words are automatically linked to our bespoke dictionary interface Multidict, which places online dictionaries in +100 languages at the user’s disposal, thereby enabling them to interrogate the text at their own pace and according to their own personal need.
The fully online tool has been optimised for mobile devices (e.g. iPads, smartphones etc.) thereby ensuring that content can be created and enjoyed on the move. Click here to see real sample webpages in a range of languages, is your language represented here?
Once you have created your webpage you can make it available immediately for free via the online service Clilstore (or other systems like dropbox.com), or save it for upload to your own website or VLE.
The resultingwebpages support all
characters (UTF-8)
The project teams
have demonstrated the
system strengths and
made language
learning materials for
Arabic, Danish, Gaelic
(Irish), Gaelic
(Scottish), Lithuanian,
Portuguese, and Spanish.
The online service
exploits two tools
developed in a previous
project,

Clilstore is the name of the authoring tool and hosting service, you can access it from
www.multidict.net/
NEW additon to Clilstore functions: You can now upload files like Hot Potatoes exercises or Word documents directly into Clilstore. Read how to do it in this guide: Download How to Upload and Link to Files
A guided tour for teachers is available from within Clilstore itself supported by videos in seven languages:

A smal Wordlink trick: If you want your students to work with e.g. cnn.com then try to add cnn.com to the following link "https://clilstore.eu/wordlink/?navsize=1&sl=en&url=", i.e. the resulting link will be: https://clilstore.eu/wordlink/?navsize=1&sl=en&url=cnn.com
One of the core outcomes of the TOOLS project is a CLIL Guidebook showing how to exploit the online service (Clilstore) in a CLIL context. The book are available in Danish, English, Irish, Lithuanian, Portuguese, and Spanish.
The guidebook titled "Clilstore Guidebook" is available in different formats; eBooks with integrated media (.epub) suitable for tablets, .azw3 versions (for Kindle readers), and .pdf versions
To support an introduction of best use of the online Clilstore units we have produced seven units demonstrationg the multidict interface, wordlink and Clilstore:
The partnership have developed and is piloting a training program on how to use the online system in various pedagogical contexts (CLIL, VOLL, and TBL).
