The participants had the opportunity to work in groups, exchange ideas, and experiences and discuss issues of common concern.

The participants were warmly welcomed by the Rector of the University of Ioannina, Prof. Georgios Kapsalis, the Vice-Rector, Prof. Andreas Fotopoulos, and the Vice-Mayor of Lefkas on Education matters, Mr Filippos Kourtis.

Ioannina, March 6th 2017
From the Rectorship

                

The Foreign Languages Centre and the Center for the Study of the Hellenic Language and Culture of the University of Ioannina participated in the National Languages Championship in Italy.

In particular, Dr. Alexandra Galani, Senior Teaching Fellow in Greek as a second/ foreign language, and Dr. Theodora Tseligka, Senior Teaching Fellow in EAP/ESP, were invited speakers at the Conference: “Recent Experiences and New Challenges in Language Learning and Teaching”, held in 16-17 February 2017 at the School of Foreign Languages and Literature of the University of Urbino Carlo Bo (Italy), as part of the National Languages Championship (N.L.C).

The N.L.C. has been organised for the last seven (7) years. This year an unprecedented number of 14,000 secondary education students from the whole country participated in the Championship and competed in one of the following languages: English, French, German and Spanish. The first three winners in each language win significant awards while the champion secures a scholarship for the first year of studies at the University of Urbino. The Championship aims at promoting foreign language education at a national level in Italy.

It is noteworthy that this is the first time that a Conference was organised within the framework of the Championship, enabling, thus, the attendant language teachers to get trained on current issues of language education.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Dr. Enrica Rossi, the Director of the Foreign Languages Centre of the University of Urbino, for the invitation, hoping that this opportunity will serve as a springboard for future collaborations between the respective institutions.

       

       

Bilateral inter-institutional agreements in the context of Erasmus+ 

With the aim of promoting mobility and international collaboration between Higher Education Institutions, we are always happy to consider bilateral agreements with other University Departments/Centres in the area of language learning. Our experience both from incoming and outgoing staff so far has strongly confirmed that these mobilities always lead to an exchange of good practices, enhancement of knowledge skills, refinement of course curricula, build-up of strong links and co-operation between the involved parties and advanced networking.

Please, see below the Erasmus+ inter-institutional agreements we have signed with other Universities/Foreign Languages Centres regarding staff mobility for training and/or teaching.
