Description

The project focused on enhancing the production of learning materials to address the striking diversification of learner profiles due to the intensified migration flows motivated by educational, professional/economic or geopolitical circumstances. EnetCollect aimed at fostering language learning within and beyond Europe by mass-producing language learning content and language-related data, such as Natural Learning Processing (NLP) resources.

 

The Action addressed the major European challenge of fostering the language skills of all citizens regardless of their diversified social, educational, and linguistic backgrounds. EnetCollect focused on performing the groundwork to set into motion a Research and Innovation trend combining the well-established domain of Language Learning with recent and successful crowdsourcing approaches to unlock a crowdsourcing potential for all languages.
