Enhancing Language Learning through Collaborative Technology in Primary Schools

The Partners in Learning initiative aims to boost ICT confidence among teachers and schools while integrating innovative technologies to enhance language learning. By exploring collaborative approaches in primary schools across Manchester, Niort, and Granada, the project addresses key challenges in language education. It focuses on stimulating children's motivation, providing broader cultural experiences, and creating shared resources for effective language skill development. Video conferencing and interactive methodologies are employed to foster real-world context learning, enabling students to assess their language skills and mentor peers.
