Today marks the launching of our exciting project on enhancing the quality of foreign language education in Türkiye! #TurkishMoNE #CoE #EUDelegationtoTürkiye
📍Ankara/ Talim ve Terbiye Kurulu Başkanlığı Konferans Salonu
Türkiye’de Yabancı Dil Eğitiminde Kalitenin Yükseltilmesi Projesi tanıtım toplantısına katıldık.
Bugün yabancı dil eğitiminin kalitesini artırmayı amaçlayan son derece önemli ve geniş kapsamlı bir projeyi başlattık.
Bu proje ile öğrencilerimizin dil becerilerini sadece yazılı olarak değil, aynı zamanda sözlü olarak da ölçmeyi hedefliyoruz.
Proje kapsamında güncellenen müfredatlar ve öğretim materyalleri,
öğretmenlerimize verilen mesleki eğitimler ve dil eğitimi alanında yapılacak yeni sınavlar, hem öğrencilerimizin hem de öğretmenlerimizin gelişimine büyük katkı sağlayacaktır.
Projenin hayata geçirilmesinde emeği geçen tüm kurum ve kuruluşlara teşekkür ediyorum.
