Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2014 Newsletter
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------actions. We all took part in national webinars and
local seminars and we constantly shared, discussed,
suggested ideas, tips, materials to cope with this
new challenging European perspective.
When we were called to run local seminars, we
could count on the helping hands of our “eTwinning
mates” to prepare presentations. In this period we
opened shared google drive folders with list of
FAQs, documents, suggestions, links. And we went
on debating on the new challenges provided by
Erasmus+ in the Teachers’ Room “eTwinning e la
realtà”.
If we look back at our “journey” together, we can
point out some good qualities of our team:
we are teachers - from different regions,
teaching different subjects in different kinds
and levels of school - who work together on
several occasions and for specific purposes
(webinars, ebooks, presentations,
Wikipedia, learning events, articles) on the
basis of our common interests;
each of us wishes to share and collaborate
with the others; none of us wants to “show
off” more than the others, and all our
decisions are taken together;
we all feel constantly part of a wider
community of teachers and learners and we
strive to be part of the eTwinning
community but also to be active in other
social networks, always acting as eTwinning
ambassadors, spreading the word and the
values of eTwinning cooperation;
we work together also to show the
European projects community that
‘together we can’ and moreover we are
convinced that cooperation is the only way
to work, to teach and to learn.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thus, we experience what means for us the
teamwork added value: making the best of mixed
competences and attitudes, enjoying mutual
learning and support, feeling less overwhelmed by
workload.
Together we can make it!
