Traduction de «Teaching expertise » (Anglais → Français) :

The Commission will: ensure, through an internal network, that all departments apply its multilingualism policy in a coherent way; continue to foster multilingualism on its Internet portal (Europa) and in its publications; launch a Languages portal on Europa providing information about multilingualism in the European Union and accommodating new portals dedicated to language learners and language teachers; give a greater role to its translation field offices in the Member States in promoting multilingualism, particularly through the customisation of the Commission’s messages for local target audiences; organise high-level seminars on multilingualism in the Member States, targeted at journalists and other opinion multipliers; continue to ...[+++] offer universities grants and teaching assistance in the field of conference interpreting, help develop distance learning tools and fund student bursaries and training visits; continue to develop cost-effective multilingual conferencing and communication tools under the Commission’s project on the interoperable delivery of pan-European e-government services to public administrations, businesses and citizens; [38] support the European Master’s in Conference Interpreting and the European Master’s in Conference Management, thereby enhancing co-operation, pooling expertise and disseminating best practice in these fields; continue to play a full part in the International Annual Meeting on Language Arrangements, Documentation and Publication, a body which discusses new job and skills requirements; continue to provide universities with a model curriculum of a Master’s degree in translation and supply visiting translators to help train students in translation; and organise an international translation competition between schools in Member States, to promote language knowledge and the language professions. |

Various measures are planned in different education and training sectors for training/further training teachers - for instance via regional centres of expertise - and financial assistance to help cover the cost of using ICTs, organising a national forum on ICTs at school, creating research or guidance structures related to ICT-assisted teaching, and providing assistance in producing content.

- setting up a training network to provide trainers with expertise in the educational use of technologies; this would enable competent trainers to be trained to cater for present and future education and training requirements, with a view both to the deficit in technical qualifications and to the use of the tools, technologies and teaching approaches needed for other education requirements and for the purposes of "learning to learn".

Along with the assumption that our universities should be focused on teaching marketable skills, understood as " technical expertise," has come pressure to collapse the distinction between colleges and universities.

The Forum is now the framework for five projects on the following topics: Scientific expertise in public discussions in Europe, Sciences and languages in Europe, the historical bases for research policies, Current and future issues relating to science teaching in Europe and Science, history of science and philosophy in Europe.

Several projects were undertaken in 1993 on various subjects : "Science and languages in Europe", "Scientific expertise in public debates", "The historical bases of research policies" and "Science teaching in Europe : problems and prospects".
