Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2014 Newsletter
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------our special children at the award ceremonies in the
midst of all the other students from different types
of schools - as winners among winners!
inclusion is possible, and inclusive education is an
enrichment for all: www.trickfilms.wikispaces.com
and www.gamesinhistory.weebly.com.
Diversity as an opportunity – a principle of inclusion
– realized with eTwinning!
This success brought it about that also mainstream
schools offered themselves as eTwinning partners.
The projects were increasingly becoming projects
between very different types of schools. All were
working together on one common topic, all students
made contributions and they were all part of the
whole. Please have a look at

Learning, Teaching, Exchanging – School
Cooperation in the Danube Region
by Tonka Panayotova
My own path then led through a master's program,
and now I work in an inclusive classroom
(secondary education) and I am teaching at a
university for education – always with eTwinning as
a companion and as a way to show the idea of
inclusion as a viable ideal of a “school for all”.
In recent projects disabled / not disabled, SN school
/ mainstream school has no longer been an issue at
all, the schools found themselves together out of
interest in the topic. And the results are proof:
This thematic conference was organized by the
Austrian National Agency for Lifelong Learning, the
Austrian National eTwinning Support Service and
PA9. It took place in Vienna, Austria on 25-26 June
2014 and was focused on teacher cooperation in
the Danube region. There were 53 participants from
Austria, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Germany,
Hungary, Moldova, Slovakia, Slovenia, the Ukraine.
They had the possibility to learn more about the
Danube Region and its challenges in the 21st
century and created future partnerships.
