Planning an eLanguages project

The participants prepare individually or in pairs their project plan. The outcomes of this exercise should be: - an interesting, informative title - a concise, engaging, well-presented summary - project stages for the project. Ideally each project stage should be based on the outcomes of a previous stage. A planning template and the Ten Tips documentation can be used to support participants with their planning process. TIP: Make this a pen and paper exercise.
