Visibility of eTwinning Projects Group July 2025 Newsletter
- Traditional street games, which encouraged immersive cultural learning;
- A school for everyone, where children learned about the impact of stereotypes and prejudices;
- Celebrating the 20th anniversary of eTwinning, during which pupils sent birthday messages and reflected on their collaboration experience.
Pupils also met online in international teams to present their products, learn traditional greetings, and sing songs in their native languages. These virtual meetings helped strengthen their sense of belonging to a wider European learning community.
Digital literacy for young learners Digital tools played a central role in the project. Pupils created interactive content using Genially, Canva, Padlet, Book Creator, Wakelet, LinoIt, and Kahoot, developing both digital skills and selfconfidence. The focus was on safe, creative, and ethical use of technology. Data protection and copyright were addressed through dedicated eSafety sessions, reflective activities on Safer Internet Day, and discussions about responsible online behaviour.
The project remained visible throughout its implementation. Each school set up a project display corner with photos and materials, published articles in local educational magazines and school websites, and presented activities at national and international events. Dissemination also took place via social media, parent meetings, Wakelet collections, and even through participation in international competitions such as the STEAM Discovery Campaign 2025( Scientix) or the“ Let’ s Create a Better World – 17 Global Goals for Sustainable Development” in Greece and on eTwinning Moldova platform( https:// e- twinning. utm. md / 2025 / 07 / 05 / educatieeuropeana-prin-prietenie-empatie-sicolaborare /), using project products.
