The primary aim of LOLIPOP is to create an on-line, interactive version of the European Language Portfolio (ELP) for higher education purposes. It will be produced in a wide variety of languages ranging from those more commonly learnt and spoken, such as French and German, to lesser used/taught languages such as Norwegian, Latvian and Polish. LOLIPOP helps learners develop an awareness of their intercultural skills through a set of can-do descriptors for the intercultural dimension which match the existing linguistic can-do statements in the European Language Portfolio. Another aim of LOLIPOP is to develop descriptors, examples and interactive activities on-line, for use in the Biography and Dossier sections of the European Language Portfolio.
