The main results of the LaProf project are expected to be the following:
(a) A language learning framework defining options and methodologies for candidate learners to become familiarized with the terminology and culture of their sectors in their destination countries, based on a series of carefully designed language learning exercises (such as the ones that Miksike has also produced, e.g. http://lefo.net/en/gtests.html?start=1&test=324&path=Fun%2F+Beginners, http://lefo.net/en/lmtests.html?test=315&start=1). This contains a pedagogic strategy to embed language learning in the immigration preparation process;
(b) An easily searchable online environment (the LaProf Web portal) allowing users to identify, retrieve and use language learning exercises in a digital format. It will be developed according to relevant international standards of the learning technology domain;
(c) An online tool providing a place where producers of digital language learning resources for the targeted communities can upload their resources, describe them with appropriate metadata in English and in their languages, and to make them publicly available via the LaProf Web portal for all interested users to find;
(d) At least 20 learning exercises that will be translated into five EU languages (i.e. English, French, Romanian, Hungarian, Estonian) and in Russian, which will be made accessible online through the LaProf Web portal. All resources will be described and categorised with rich metadata describing their properties and characteristics (e.g. to which professions, regions or linguistic audiences they apply);
(e) A series of evaluation events (at least one for the learners of each participating region/country), where the developed language exercises will be assessed;
(f) An evaluation report that will include the conclusions from the evaluation seminars as well as recommendations for all interested stakeholders, together with a comprehensive White Paper presenting the project approach, results, and recommendations in a simple manner;
(g) A focused dissemination event (European Workshop) that will aim to bring together LaProf with other relevant initiatives, in order to exchange experiences and discuss their results;
(h) Finally, a network of interested people and/or institutions (such as language teachers, language institutes, professional associations, educational initiatives) will be formed through an appropriately designed Partner Affiliation Program, in order to create a structure that will further sustain and use the project results;
