Below are the links to useful websites run by or made in collaboration with GRAL members:

ORALITAT: This a free-access website based on short videos that offers educational tools and resources for students and teachers wishing to develop their oral and public speaking skills. ORALITAT is the result of a RecerCaixa research project devoted to investigating effective techniques for learning and teaching speaking skills. 

ITAP: The International Association for Teaching Pragmatics (ITAP) aims to bring together research and teaching practices in L2 pragmatics as well as to promote the teaching of pragmatic competence in first and second languages, allowing students to become international citizens, able to communicate with speakers across contexts.

TaskGen: The main goal of the taskGen is to generate a web-based tool for task design that will follow the principles of task-based learning models and frameworks. This will be a semi-automated, flexible, and adaptive tool that will aid task designers in creating tasks for L2 learning and provide the rationale behind design decisions.
