Vision and mission of the project

The advantage of a fully online tool is that it will work from all existing and future operating systems (not just Microsoft), it will also enable creation of language learning multimedia webpages from and to mobile devices like tablets (e.g. iPads).
Users will have the option of making the resulting webpages immediately available online for free using the system we will develop (or other systems such as dropbox.com), or else of downloading them for upload to their own website.
The resulting webpages will support all characters (UTF8) so it may be used for languages like Greek, Lithuanian, and Arabic.
The project teams will demonstrate the system strengths and make exemplary online language learning materials for Arabic, Danish, Gaelic (Irish), Gaelic (Scottish), Lithuanian, Portuguese, and Spanish.

Aims and objectives of the project

• The TOOLS project proposes to develop a free online service / tool, which will enable language teachers from vocational colleges, universities, and adult learning institutions to create multimedia rich webpages for language learning with all words automatically linked to online dictionaries in more than a hundred languages.
• The project aims at developing an online tool, which will be so easy to use that any teacher who can use e.g. Facebook will be able to create online language learning resources on the fly.
