Summary: | The European project QuILL – Quality in Language Learning – coordinated by Pixel-Italy in cooperation with the project applicant and scientific coordinator, Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (IPB), Portugal, was approved within the Erasmus+ programme call KA2 – Strategic Partnerships for Digital Education Readiness and it includes 5 other European partners. Its overall aim is to foster digital education promptness in the context of higher education. On the one hand, it intends to provide higher education lecturers teaching languages for specific purposes with digital technologies-based teaching resources to make them aware of the potentialities available online and freely accessible, supporting them in their teaching. At the same time, language lecturers develop their and the students’ digital competence. On the other, education stakeholders will also be called for action due to their strategic and active role in implementing major changes in the education area. By showcasing the QuILL portal, where 360 resources assessed and validated are already available, we shall present the results achieved so far as well as explain the other two intellectual outputs of the project. Lecturers who tested the resources have already proven the relevance of the project in the field of not only LSP but also as a means to guide and teach autonomous learners wanting to improve their language skills in the 18 languages the project focuses on.
