eTwinning Principles 

eTwinning projects are based on important core principles that guide collaboration and quality in education:

  1. Collaboration 
    All partners work together equally and share responsibilities.
  2. Pedagogical value 
    Projects support learning goals and are connected to the school curriculum.
  3. Student-centered approach 
    Students are active participants — they create, explore, and take part in all activities.
  4. Online safety 
    Students’ personal data is protected, and safe internet use is promoted.
  5. Purposeful use of digital tools 
    Technology is used effectively and appropriately for learning.
  6. Intercultural communication 
    Respectful exchange between different cultures and support for language learning.
  7. Inclusion and equality 
    Every student should have the chance to participate and feel included.

    Twinning Security Rules 

    Protect personal data
    Never share full names, addresses, phone numbers, or passwords.

    Use avatars, not real photos
    For safety, students should use avatars or group/class photos.

    Respect copyright
    Use only images, music, and content that are free to use or properly credited.

    Be respectful online
    Use kind language and respect others’ work and opinions.

    Safe communication
    Communicate only within trusted platforms like TwinSpace or school tools.

    Teacher supervision
    All activities should be guided and monitored by teachers.
