The starting online meeting as part of the Erasmus+ KA2 BEAUCOUP project brought together representatives from three countries – Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Estonia. Around 160 participants from various educational institutions – including Zaporizhzhia National University (ZNU), V. Hnatiuk Ternopil National Pedagogical University, V. Korolenko Poltava National Pedagogical University, M. Kotsyubynsky Vinnytsia State Pedagogical University, Khazar University (Baku), Mingachevir State University, and the Nakhchivan Pedagogical Institute – joined the programme in order to acquire the knowledge needed to meet today’s challenges, particularly in teaching, and to continuously improve themselves in line with the demands of the digital age.

Our reading habits have drastically changed in the XXI century: we are now reading e-texts as often as print ones, which makes e-reading an inalienable part of our lives. But such popularity of digital reading poses a problem for teaching, as approaches to developing e-reading skills may differ from traditional ones. The Erasmus+ eRead project was initiated to bridge this gap. Zaporizhzhia National University joined the partnership. ZNU team includes the teachers from the Faculty of Foreign Philology and the Philological Faculty, who specialize in methods of teaching languages.
