Motivating Students to learn languages

[Joel54]

As a newbie, I am unsure if this post belongs here, as it is relevent to all teachers and educators. Please let me know were it should be if incorrect. Thank you.

Next week we will be commencing a Socrates EU Lingua project called
"Dont Give Up'. This project aims to build a best practice repository to
help every level of language education to improve the impact and lower
the drop-out rates for language learning.

To complete this repository we will be sending out questionaires and
carrying out email and telephone surveys of language learning
professionals (from every level) to build the best practice repository.
I would be very grateful if List members would be kind enough to help
the project by giving us your examples of your experiences and, in an
ideal world, how and what you would do to improve language teaching.

At this stage please indicate your interest my sending me your name,
institution and contact details, so that when the project is ready, we
can send you a questionaire. ( EMAIL REMOVED - Send PM to This User Instead )

The project will then test the best practices in partners language
schools and finally we will publish the results.

Thank you for any help.
