Within the frame of the European Erasmus+-Project “BleTeach - Blended-Learning in Teachers´ Professional Development” an international consortium (including Hungary) intend to develop an advanced professional development course which will enable secondary teachers of all school subjects to integrate content- specific literacy skills into their subject classes. The particular concerns of the project are to combine elements of face-to-face learning with e-learning in an optimal way for teachers in a „blended learning“ format. The planned course is going to build on the results of two predecessor projects in the Comenius-programme (BaCuLit, ISIT), but will also update and expand the results of these projects. Furthermore, it is also planned to build the course on national examples and materials for each of the involved countries (e.g. Hungary). The basic conception and main objectives of BleTeach are presented in the paper in which the methods, objectives and outcomes of the first output are also introduced.
