TANGO, an International Collaborative Bilingual E-Learning Project
Álvarez-Mayo, Carmen
Research-publishing.net
TANGO (Álvarez-Mayo, 2013) uses the cultural aspects of foreign languages to promote oral interaction, enabling students to become self-regulated learners. Through TANGO, foreign language students learn about the cultural intricacies of the Target Language (TL) and use the TL to practise and further develop their oral skills with a partner who is a native speaker. Students openly discuss their views and reflect on their learning progress and any issues they may encounter while practising all language skills: listening, reading, writing and oral interaction. TANGO is an e-learning programme that promotes self-regulated learning as well as critical thinking and as such it will play a key role in making foreign language students better equipped learners, enabling them to develop invaluable continual development skills for their academic and professional careers.
