The project activities were shared not only with the participating schools, but had broadened dissemination by web site (http://erasmus.loxfactory.de/), project's Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/Find-your- balance-148598962412070/?ref=bookmarks) and disseminations on national televisions and newspapers. Face to face communication was an important factor for the success of the project. Students had the opportunity after virtual communication to meet each other and to start friendships that will last long after the project. Different activities during those short-term visits and outdoor activities raised the communication and exchange of work among students. Teachers and students participants in the project reach different ideas, examples and good practices concerning balance in students' lives. Students were involved in different kind of activities that showed them how to use technology safely, how to combine sport activities and technology, and convinced them about the benefit of physical activities in their everyday life. Through this project students got a wider view of the opportunities to achieve balance in their life concerning technology and physical activities. They evaluated the benefits of using mobile phones in everyday life and had the opportunity to think about different activities that could be performed in order to achieve the balance.
