COMALAT
02/03/2017
 

The development of language skills contributes as a fundamental part to the mobility of young European workers and trainees. The current range of language courses and educational content for developing these skills are mainly cost intensive, have a uniform procedure for all users and are usually only possible online via the Internet. COMALAT is a European project funded by the EU with around 445,000 euros over three years.

The COMALAT System wants to present itself as a flexible, web-based platform and application for mobile devices for teaching and learning language skills. The system offers German, English and Spanish learning materials for free to all EU citizens as Open Educational Resource (OER). In comparison to existing language courses and learning opportunities, COMALAT has a huge advantage with its adaptability, which allows COMALAT directly to adapt to the needs and interests of users. The strengths and weaknesses, as well as the learning objectives of each user are are taken into account and investigated with statistical analysis methods.

Involved in COMALAT project are the Institute of Practical Informatics (PI) from the University of Siegen (coordination), the Institute of Knowledge Based Systems and Knowledge Management (KBS) from the University of Siegen, the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, and the Language Centre at the University of Alicante, Spain.

  He co-authored the original proposal and was the technical manager of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki team for the OPEN-SME FP7 European project (http://opensme.eu). His main duties in this project were the design and development of the Component Adaptation Environment tool as well as the design of the Open Source Software search engine OCEAN. For more information see the related publications (Layer assessment of object-oriented software: A metric facilitating white-box reuse, Extracting Components from Open Source: The Component Adaptation Environment (COPE) Approach and others from the Research publications section). You can download the COPE tool from the OPEN-SME project website (http://opensme.eu) and you can use OCEAN directly by visiting the OCEAN website (http://ocean.gnomon.com.gr/web/guest/home). Components extracted using the COPE tool are currently available through the COMPARE component repository (http://www.teletel-projects.net/compare/). For more information please visit the OPEN-SME website (http://opensme.eu). You can also download the code of the COPE tool from the Bitbucket repository of the project (https://bitbucket.org/gkakaron/copeswingapp).
