Abstract
ABSTRACT: This article presents an international telecollaboration programme called UniLingua, which was carried out between eight universities and university language centres during the 2020/2021 academic year. By promoting language exchanges, UniLingua aims to satisfy one of the most immediate academic needs of university students, which is to improve their plurilingual and pluricultural profile. This report describes, firstly, the origin and development of the project, and secondly, based on the data collected from the questionnaires filled out by the participants, this report shows the most relevant results of the first edition of the project.
Description
The project «UniLingua: Complutense interuniversity linguistic tandem» has been financed by the Complutense University of Madrid within the framework of the Innovation and Improvement of Teaching Quality projects (project number 201).
