Learning can happen anywhere, any time!

How can adult learners personalize their learning by using their own learner language output (i.e. their own texts and their own voices) to further acquire language skills? How can learners take advantage of their own mobile devices to input their own learner language and gain further communicative proficiency? Can we personalize language learning by taking advantage of Natural Language Processing (NLP) services and technologies already available? How can adult learners use their critical thinking, analysis & awareness skills (Aguado-Jiménez, Pérez-Paredes & Sánchez 2012) to improve their communicative competence (Pérez-Paredes 2010) across different CEFR levels by using these open educational resources (OER) tools? In doing so, we aim at maximizing the role of learner language by promoting good practices in using these OERs in personalized language leaning contexts and thus contribute to the modernization of the HE systems in the EU and a more widespread use of innovative OERs and learning designs (Conole, 2013) that include not only English but also other EU languages that can serve as the basis for a more widespread use of these ICTs.
