The grammar resources in the ECOSTAR Resource Bank have been collected from a wide range of institutions and individuals. These sources include sites recommended by ECOSTAR’s European partners, who have taught CEFR-aligned English courses for many years (special thanks to our EU partners Lil Ercole, Fatima Bassi and Sonia Munteanu).
Additional sources of material are well-known academic institutions such as Purdue University’s OWL and Wisconsin’s Wisc-online, as well as content providers such as the BBC and the British Council. We have also included free practice resources from reliable commercial sites that help students prepare for international placement exams such as IELTS and TOEFL (for information on how these exams map onto CEFR, see http://www.versanttest.com/technology/featured/Fact%20Sheet%20-%20Versant%20English%20comparison%20to%20other%20English%20tests.pdf).
