| Title | STELLA: Online European Language Learning |
| Body | From http://www.lmp.ucla.edu/NewsItem.aspx?menu=012&article=57 Two years ago a transnational EU project, funded with support from the European Commission, was launched under the name of STELLA (Stepping up the e-learning of languages), as part of the Socrates / Minerva programme. The Stella team are currently offering - completely free-of-charge – online language learning programmes for English, Hungarian and Danish. Learners have an option to select the language of instruction. It is hoped to add further languages in the future. Underlying the whole project is the STELLA methodology, which implements the ideas and objectives laid down in the Common European Framework of Reference for Modern Languages. The methodology is oriented towards the European Language Certificates, levels A1/A2. Supporting documents include a graded and sequenced distribution of topics, themes, language functions, lexis and syntax which authors can use as a basis to generate online language learning material. The generic system constitutes the electronic implementation of the STELLA methodology. The core material in STELLA is a language learning course (written in English), which serves as a model for authors to write courses for other languages. For those who are interested in the background of the project as well as copies of the Stella Methodology information can be found at http://www.minerva-stella.info . STELLA is available at http://www.eulanguages.net/html/home.asp . |
