Abstract

The learning goals in the area of foreign language teaching in/ntoday’s world need to be defined anew, one of their main features being/nthe giving up the construct of the native speaker as the paradigm of/nreference. It needs to be replaced by a set of the individual’s competences/nin different languages,that are variable and will have to be exercised in/ndifferentiated contexts and situations. The plurilingual approaches might/nbe an appropriate response to these demands; taking as a starting point/nthe concept of plurilingual competence, and building up on Cummins’/nhypothesis of linguistic interdependence, a pedagogical model is put/nforward, that is being worked on for its later implementation in some different contexts of the language teaching in Spain. The model, which/nencompasses the whole of the languages repertoire of each individual/nlearner, and aims at developing altogether the plurilingual competence/nand the intercultural awareness, will be tried out in a number of schools/nwith different characteristics as to their educational level and sociopolitical/ncontext, and will be validated following the formative research/nmethodology.
