CMC
Communicating in Multilingual Contexts| is a European Commission project funded via the Socrates programme. The project is designed to cater for the needs of mobility students prior to exchange programmes with particular focus on academic language skills development. In order to achieve these objectives, the project will produce innovative didactic materials in the form of a software product based on two on-line teaching modules.
EXPLICS

This is achieved by bringing together the different competence areas of the project partners. The aim is to then develop interrelated activities for subject-specific language teaching. Part of the project was undertaken by the Spanish|, Italian| and English| Team here at the LSE Language Centre.
