6. I would like to know more about different countries and
cultures in Europe
7. I would like to learn another foreign language
8. I have used a foreign language
German students learn at least two foreign languages, so they think two is enough, whereas
most of Basque students would like to learn another one. Being so close to the German
students made them think learning German might be interesting.

(minimum) to 5 (maximum)
9. I have learnt about the European Union culture and problems

10-1. Do you feel more confident using English (and other foreign
language) after taking part in this project?

English students are especial needs, but some of them tried hard to speak Spanish.
French students had a poor level of English and Spanish. The teachers were asked to
choose more carefully the students who take part in the project.
10-2. Has the project improved your language skills in general?

It depends on the country. Basque students also spoke Spanish during the visit, so as
there are more answers from the Basque team than from other countries, their
answers influence the to some extent average. On the other hand, French were too
shy to talk, so their answers dont count too much.
10-3. Do you feel your social skills have improved as a result of
the contact with other European schools?

10-4. Do you feel your ICT skills have improved as a result of the
contact with other European schools?

It was the beginning of the school year, so the answers might have been different at
the end of the term of school year.
10-5. Are you more motivated for school work and language
studies after participating in this project?

17. Did you like the experience of hosting a foreign student?
Grade from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much)

Some Basque students didnt enjoy hosting French as much as hosting German
students because of their poor language.
18. Did you find that language was a barrier for communication?

Language was a barrier of communication for French students who could hardly speak
English or Spanish.
