Glossa, the most innovative technology for the oldest language in Europe |
 |
 |
 |
|
The project GLOSSA is a European Union education project under the LifeLong Learning Program. The project is to help language educators and language students across Europe. The main focus is given to the teachers and students of the Greek language at an advanced level but some of the results are relevant also to teachers and students of other languages. It is building methodologies, tools, practices and courses specifically to help develop language learning and teaching for Greek and for the less widely taught languages of Europe. This is being completed by:
- Building methodologies for learning in online environments (advanced levels & autonomous)
- Creating transferability to other European languages
- Developing e-learning multimedia courses for the Greek language at C1 & C2 (CEFR)
- Developing a common European professional profile for language teachers
- Adapting an accreditation tool for non-formal and informal language teaching skills.
The project is in its early stages but we would be grateful for expressions of interest and especially if you would be interested in piloting the project when we are ready.
Piloting will include:
- Trying out our Greek courses
- Constructive criticism of our resources
- Methodology for online courses
- Accreditation tools.

When we think of learning content today, we probably think of a learning object. Originating in the world of computer-based delivery systems, learning objects were depicted as being like lego blocks or atoms, little bits of content that could be put together or organized. Standards bodies have refined the concept of learning objects into a rigorous form and have provided specifications on how to sequence and organize these bits of content into courses and package them for delivery as though they were books or training manuals.
