Methodology & assessment

Preparation:
Participants register on eTwinning and familiarise themselves with the platform and complete the preparation assignments on Padlets.

Implementation:
Learning through experience is the key element in teacher training courses provided by Kaunas Biennial. Participants study and discuss the theoretical background of the ideas, engage in the related experiences and reflect on their personal learning. Most of the days the environment is set to enhance the learning and experiences.
eTwinning is an important component of the course work where participants share their daily learning ideas and reflections. It also serves as a monitoring and dissemination tool: https://twinspace.etwinning.net/15730/pages/page/83849

Follow-up
After the course participants will reflect on the gained knowledge and its application in their own educational environment. They will complete a report to be sent to their national agency. The trainers will provide support for collaboration between participants encouraging them to initiate partnerships projects, help to find partners and participate in international work.
