"The background for the project is that we wanted to work on student motivation for learning foreign languages. The project's main goal is to increase the students motivation through applying new and innovative methods using new technology. We also want to develop professional teaching communities where we learn from each other and develop new ideas together. Through working on this project we aim to make our teachers and students more aware of the opportunities that lie within applying new technology in the foreign language classroom, and we also want to make them see how knowing different foreign languages may help them in the future. The main objectives of the project are:- To increase student motivation for learning foreign languages- To develop professional teaching communities that can inspire teachers to be more innovative in the foreign language classroom (Spread of good practices)- To develop some concrete lesson plans that can be used by foreign language teachers across EuropeWhen choosing the partners we decided on schools that offer the same foreign languages and that were equally interested in working on their student's motivation for these subjects. The participants in the project will be a selection of English, German and French teachers from all the five participating schools. In addition a number of student groups will also be involved in the project as recepients of the lesson plans we will develop. An important part of the lesson plans will involve communication between students at the different schools. The three most important activities will be the teacher workshops where we collaborate on making lesson plans, the teacher mobilities where we plan to visit each other, and observe and participate in the teaching using the newly created lesson plans, as well as communication between the students throughout the duration of the project.The most concrete end result will be our ""Foreign Languages for the future"" blog where our lesson plans are gatherd for future use in foreign language classrooms. Our results will also be presented here. Furthermore, we hope that working on this project will help to increase student's motivation for learning foreign languages, both through the use of new technology and also through helping them see the need for knowing foreign languages in the future. Another thing that we hope will be a lasting impact is that participation in this project can lead to teachers using more technology in the classroom, which again can lead to both students and teachers learning more and becoming more motivated. The long term benefits of this project we see as being for instance the contact we create between the schools. We can continue to use these connections to involve new student groups in communicating with each other also after the project period is over."
