The first day, Thursday, ended also with an acivity
aimed at helping the participants to know each
other better.
complete our activities, taking into account the fact
that I supervise an Informatics Laboratory. The
workshop 4 - Laboratory of the Senses, was also
really interesting, but the only disadvantage of it as
regards its applicability in or school would be the
difficulties in getting the diagnosis kits.
On Saturday, I took part in the following activities:
 Presentations in plenary - Why Mobile
Learning is Important in Education?
(many applications that we can use in
the classroom: Kahoot, Quizlet,
Podomatic etc.)
 Group presentations of the projects
drafts proposed
 Certification of the participants
On Friday there took place four workshops, each
participant having the possibility to choose three of
them to attend to.
The immediate result of this seminar is represented
by the initial project with the participants in the
seminar:
I attended the following activities:
•
Workshop 3 - Redesigning classrooms for
the future through Mysteries - The journey of ideas
•
Workshop 1 - Project Based Learning and
Arduino
•
Workshop 4 - Laboratory of the Senses.
At the end of the four workshops, which took place
simultaneously, there were highlighted some
exemples of eTwinning good practice. By exploring
the potential offered by the projects regarding
school co-operation, as well as watching
presentations of examples of eTwinning good
practice, all the participants had the possibility to
create a complete image of what a succesful
eTwinning project means. The most impressive
project was presented by Ana Boléo Fernandes, and
the main character was a 6-year old girl, who was
in wheelchair.

All the activities included in workshops were
extremely special, as there were presented new and
innovative ideas, we worked in teams and
everything was dynamic. We learned much and
even very much, but I was really impressed by
Workshop 1 - Project Based Learning and Arduino.
The approaching of this workshop and the
laboratory application that we conducted together,
made me willing to do my best in order to bring in
the school where I work (with the help of Latcu-
Voda Parents Association or other finantial sources)
,at least 5-6 Arduino boards, which will help us to
do practical activities with our students,so as to

the results of this seminar will be also
presented during a show at the local TV station
Cromtel TV Radauti, at the beginning of September
For me, this was the most complex and pleasant
activity, both personal, as well as professional (I
have been on the platform since 2010). The
interaction, meeting and finding new partners for
our future projects or the ones already started, all
these represent unquestionable advantages of this
