Popis This paper presents a Creative Approach to Language Teaching (CALT) with the aim to share effectiveness of the use of flip teaching in an academic setting. Masaryk University Language Centre (CJV MU) is the leading language learning institution in the Czech Republic that has initiated complex improvements and innovations of language education and encouraged research into diversity of approaches to language teaching in the country. A number of project and research activities (Invite, Compact, Impact, Deutsch.Info, Czech–Key) focused on design and implementation of novel pedagogies and cutting edge ICT tools. The areas in focus included flexible materials format, authentic situations and ICT-enhanced language learning in the context of critical and creative thinking in language development. The efforts resulted, among other outcomes, in CALT, a fusion of creativity-related theories that exposes learners to the complexity of the language used in creative situations by means of a community-of-practice style of work. This talk presents two examples of CALT courses, namely Key Competencies in Academic English (for university students) and Internationalisation Support (for university academic staff), that view a wide use of ICT and multimedia, personalised language guidance and flip teaching as an integral part of language learning process. The Key Competencies in Academic English is an interdisciplinary course composed of a combination of extensive reading, listening and video materials watching supported by activities in the “IS MU” LMS outside of the classroom, and in-class interactive tasks that stimulate critical and creative thinking and use student-generated learning materials. The course teachers adopt roles of language facilitators, guides and advisers that attempt to create a flexible and dynamic learning environment.
