Visit at the University of Silesia
On May 6-10, Dr. Teresė Ringailienė, the director of the IFL, visited the University of Silesia (Katowice, Poland) on an Erasmus+ teaching visit. She gave lectures on intercultural communication, introduced students to the Institute of Foreign Languages, Vytautas Magnus University and the opportunities to study here as an exchange student or to join a blended intensive programme and organised a game about Lithuania. Some students impressed by the depth of their knowledge, while others learned many new things about their neighbouring country.
Dr. T. Ringailienė also met with representatives of the Humanities Faculties of the University of Silesia, shared good practices and discussed possibilities for future cooperation and joint activities or projects. Several lecturers will already be attending the blended intensive programme for language teachers organised by the Institute of Foreign Languages this June. It is delightful to experience close cooperation between neighbours and partners of the Transform4Europe university alliance.
