All our extra resources are dedicated to explore new ways of learning and to develop topics which are less interesting from a commercial point of view. Per default the results will be made available under an open source license.

We are looking forward to expanding our network and community to make our efforts available to a larger audience! If you want to know more, or get in touch, please drop us an email to info@talkademy.org

Current EU projects - Life Long Learning Programme

talkademy is the initiator of AVALON, which is a 2-year project that deals with collecting experiences and best practices in running language courses in Second Life and teaching the skills that are needed in order to make best use of this environment, to language trainers.

 

Our second project, Talk with me, develops courses for less widley spoken Eastern European languages (Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Slovenian) and explores how to best exploit social motivation for language learning.
