Objectives

By implementing the project we especially wanted to achieve a working and innovative cooperation network between partner institutions in the form of a cross-border online learning platform. The network is the basis for designing and piloting a BA study course aimed at developing future teachers' multilingual and multicultural competences by participating in cross-border border student collaboration and participation, and encouraging students to take part in student exchange programs. In addition, the project was aimed at bringing together experts in multilingual teaching methodology from different countries to work in teams and use their expertise ti develop innovative instructional approaches for promoting multilingual practices. An important objective was also to develop an open-source multilingual MOOC on teaching in linguistically and culturally diverse classrooms, aimed at in-service teachers as a professional development course.
