European Languages With Us
The main aim of the project is to create interest of Riga State Technical School about different European languages, emphasizing professional development and future education possibilities. Besides the aim is to create motivation for learning languages. The students work individually, thus learning and comprehending individual work habits. Discussions and formation of the interest groups are carried out at the initial stage of the project. The participants look for words – concepts that are essential to every man in every country. Finally these words are translated in different European languages. Each student has his/her chosen language. Besides the students put the words – concepts in their own order, according to the degree of importance. In this way it is possible to get to know students priorities, needs and interests. After that the analysis of results was carried out – what priorities and needs are prevailing. The students make their own mini dictionaries (in English, German, French, Italian, Spain, Norwegian, Estonian, Lithuanian) and present them to other students.
