POP - Personal Online Paths

In view of the expansion of self-directing language learning, the POP project seeks to stimulate improved, on-line tutoring, through the development of a training programme for teachers developing language courses, and through the development and introduction of four on-line learning packages using cross-border, on-line tutoring. Following development and testing activity, the project will produce: a guide to the teaching model and lessons learnt from the project; a 70-hour training programme for teachers specific to developing skills in on-line training (in EN, FR, ES & FI) and four 40-70 hour on-line language learning packages, namely, Business English, Professional French, Tourism Spanish and Finnish for Foreigners, each with tutor support. The introduction of these end products will be the first step towards establishing a Virtual Language Learning Centre (VLCC) for self-directed language learning supported by international on-line tutoring.An initial dissemination phase will focus upon the establishment of an on-line network, involving members of partner networks, extending the potential distribution of the project partnership, in order that information on project progress can serve as a wide-reaching motivational tool stimulating the development of on-line tutoring. Normal channels such as articles to press & scientific journals and presentations at relevant events will also be used. The project will seek wide-ranging dissemination to win support for a Virtual Language Learning Centre for which commercialisation is envisaged beyond the lifetime of the project.
