Hi, This may interest some Language Teachers. It's seminar on using new technologies for language teaching on in May 23rd in Dublin see below for more details.
Language on the Go (LANGO) is an EU funded project bringing together 6 partner organisations (in Bulgaria, Cyprus, Ireland and Malta) to explore opportunities offered by new technologies to encourage learners to maintain and build upon their exisiting language skills. The project consortium has developed a multilingual language tool of interactive learning approaches and innovative e-learning platforms to provide mobile assisted language learning within a framework of attractive and easy learning content.
The tool integrates technology and uses innovative applications which do not require advanced computer skills on the part of the learner. This allows for more individualized and independent learning in terms of pace, time and place (home, work, on the move). The LANGO product offers users:
- introduction and practice of frequently used language patterns
- initial development of communicative skills
- easy language input through real life communicative situations
- entertaining learning activities to practice language patterns
- expanding intercultural awareness through language learning
Project details are available at: http://www.lango.eu
The LANGO project will be presented at a seminar on Thursday morning, 23 May in the Church of Ireland College of Education, Rathmines, Dublin 6. Registration opens at 09:30.
There will be inteactive demonstrations of the technology employed as well as presentations on innovative language learning and intercultural encounter. Light refreshments will be served. There is no cost.
