PUMO: PUpils on the Move



• The increasing mobility of European citizens has led to a large number of pupils living and studying abroad.

• Mobility is not only about leaving, but also about

coming back • Pupils living (temporarily) abroad have a need for continued 'homeland specific' studies in their native languages.

Experience

• City of Riga: experience with returning pupils,

• Miksike: delivering on-line Estonian language lessons to expatriate Estonians (families from the Estonian Ministry of Defence and Foreign Affairs who are on long term foreign missions).

Examples: http://lefo.net/en/gtests.html?test=523&start=1, http://lefo.net/en/lmtests.html?test=318&start=1



All PUMO partners have extensive experience in developing and providing online lessons and exercises that can be accessed remotely (PE, SE/High Schools, HE).
