Leonardo da Vinci programme (European Union) 2004-2007

The overall aim of this project is to develop and evaluate multimedia and web-based language learning modules supporting learner-oriented specialised language training for professionals who participate in international project teams within the EU framework or plan to apply for a project supported by the European Commission.

Emphasis will be on topics that deal with communication within a project team and on project-specific tasks that are embedded in the life-cycle of European projects. In particular, the following learning modules will be developed:

Each module contains authentic materials relevant to the topic (texts, dialogues, videos) as well as exercises, phraseology, grammatical reference, translation support and a multilingual glossary. The contents of the modules will first be developed for English and German and then be adapted to two other languages: Polish, Danish and Slovak (translation support and multilingual glossary).
