Europe thrives on people meeting and understanding each other. Language is the key competence for this. We want to enable young Europeans to study in other European countries. In doing so, we focus on countries that are less in demand and languages that are less widely spoken. Learning these languages in a relatively short time requires sophisticated didactics and methodology.
TeachME creates neuro-didactic based online tools for international students and for teachers, educators and facilitators of language courses, to increase the number of young people who want to learn minor EU languages and to enhance their ability to command the host-country language.
- To increase the number of young adults who want to learn minor European languages, as well as to immerse into the host country language and culture
- To establish a European role model: a set of intensive language programs tailored to the needs of youth interested in the study at a foreign university in any of the partner countries
- To promote transnational cooperation and mutual learning between the partners who represent different sectors of education in order to improve education systems, structures and processes
- To support exchanges and make visible good practices, dialogue, mutual learning and cooperation among policymakers, practitioners and stakeholders from partner countries.
- University Roadmap for foreigners with links, infographics, videos and other materials useful for preparing for studies in a foreign country.
- Neuro-didactic concept for intensive teaching of a foreign language through multimodal and blended learning approaches.
- New methods and tools for teachers, on how to be flexible and adapt their learning methods to circumstances and how to transfer knowledge from teacher to student in a digital environment, including the concept of “online digital class”.
- Guide for facilitators of intensive language courses with useful interactive resources, materials and tools that can be used during the learning process.
- TEACHME platform with interactive library, that serves as a databank of resources and self-preparatory tests for language teachers and foreigners/students.
