Dr. Martina Emke from the Open University, United Kingdom, in her role of the invited speaker, shared her view of the “Future (Im)Perfect: Language Teachers‘ Professional Development And ICT”. Participants noted that there are similarities in several European actions targeted at language teachers. We are hopeful that such collaborations will enhance the DC4LT project as well.Joseph Hopkins, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya / ECML, gave the audience heads-up on how many of the aspects discussed by the DC4LT project participants find real implementation in his daily work. In his talk on “Developing competences for online language teachers: Putting it into practice”, Joseph showed how his online language teaching efforts are maximized by the new tech available, and what are the challenges he faces selecting instructors.
