Achieving Capability Together

The ACT project focuses on learning, teaching and using foreign languages and new technologies and being adequate about using digital competencies. It cannot be denied that it is compulsory to keep up with the innovations in the field of digital literacy in order to be able to use it in a positive way. It is very important for teachers to include the usage of ICT in their yearly plans and the syllabus.Through this project we aim to provide the participants with the motivation to learn and improve the level of a second language they have been taught and to familiarize themselves with the languages of the other participating countries. It is obvious that knowing a foreign language is the key skill to start communication and collaboration. Also we would like to provide opportunities to the participating institutions to be internationalised in their studies and to lead the students to success in life through achieving their dreams, being academically successful and efficient lifelong learners. Thanks to this collaboration, all the participating countries will be getting more used to looking through each other's perspectives, improving tolerance and empathy. We intend to provide students with hands-on learning environments which they could use to learn by themselves in the future. All the technology based tools will be promoted to be used for improving the language skills they have been learning and increasing motivation to learn foreign languages. The project plans to teach students how to discover their self-motivation and confidence and improve themselves through the activities related to learning languages and using digital tools. Using technology in the education in the world we live in is of utmost importance, as it is possible to reach the knowledge with just a single click. All schools agree that nowadays students lack key competences like communication skills, interpersonal skills, and wider ICT skills.All schools will address these deficiencies and will try to improve key competences of students and teachers alike, using English as the target language. Furthermore, the project will improve the quality of teaching and learning via training sessions and workshops with experts in these fields of knowledge. As educators, we believe that it has a crucial importance to keep up with technological changes, especially in the field of education which changes very rapidly in order to be an engaging and aspiring teacher. This project is a very good chance to learn and practice new skills, to make long lasting relationships with 6 different countries in Europe and Asia, to polish foreign language skills and to learn more about people with different backgrounds and religions.
