INTERcCOM (Intercultural communication in the Euregio Meuse Rhine) aims to improve mutual communication and hence simplify studying and working in the EMR. We try to achieve this goal through scientific research in which the following main questions are raised:
-Which interference mistakes and other recurrent mistakes do native youngsters make in other region’s languages?
-Which are the cultural characteristics of each of the regions and of their native youngsters in particular? Are there many resemblances or differences?
Based on the results of the research, e-learning modules on language and culture will be developed.

Academic Writing Awareness Raising in English, or in short AWARE, is an online modular bridging programme for pupils intending to study English at university. It has been developed to guide Flemish learners through the basic principles and conventions of writing in an academic context. In 2011-2012 it was also tested on freshmen at university. On the basis of a comprehensive needs analysis the tool will now be taken a step further to include academic reading.

Learner Autonomy has attracted widespread attention in recent year. The theoretical frameworks for learner autonomy provide the background for current research projects and examples of practice in the field.
