ELTE – European language teaching exchange
The project enhances cooperation in the field of education, in particular by encouraging innovation in the development
of educational practices and materials. Language teachers will be equipped with innovative teaching methods, helping
learners become more effective communicators, developing self-directed learning skills, encouraging creativity and
team-work.
Specific objectives are:
• the study of teachers/learners needs and expectations to language teaching/learning in partners organisations,
• feedback on the results of partners study, application of appropriate innovative methods related to needs
analyses and exchange of teaching experience,
• Permanent development and dissemination of supportive material to language teachers of adults, based on our
project experience and good practice.
Our main target groups:
• adult language teachers,
• migrants/travellers/unemployed persons,
• Local community groups.
The project’s work programme is based on a number of study visits to each-others countries, during which the partners
experience different methods as the Method of Activation of Individual and Group Potential, Tandem – Learning,
Multiform Method, European Language Portfolio, a Web-based environment Xenios and other IT-based innovative
solutions for language studies. The implementation of the project means application of the methods in current language
courses for adults in partner's organisations. The general contributions to learning and teaching foreign languages to
adults will be measured by the degree of dissemination of the theme in seminars and workshops, through local media
and IT.
