eTwinning and the project
On the 11th of March 2022, participant teachers of the ENSINUS ETP, the Portuguese school, learned how to use eTwinning in order to be able to work with their students in the platform. Some teachers have already enrolled themselves and are initiating the process with their students.
Our partnership has organised many ways of evaluating the project process and quality of outcomes.This is our mid term assessment for the results of which we all feel satisfied.Things we noticed need reinforcement to be more effective ,are taken seriously into consideration for improving in th near future.

Throughout our stay at GO! Athenaum Brakel we had the chance to experience the "Discovery Tour series" which is made of dedicated games that let visitors freely roam Ancient Greece, Ancient Egypt and the Viking Age to learn more about their history and daily life. Students, teachers, non-gamers, and players can discover these eras at their own pace, or embark on guided tours and stories curated by historians and experts.
Lesson plans made for taking advantage of the above potentials make learning thrilling and exciting!Explore here some examples about Ancient Greek History!
We share here a manual about a software we've been practicing while in our LTT activity at Belgian School.It's for designing objects and then print them by 3D printers
February, 3rd's program was very interesting. Michaël De Borre presented the eduprogram VR-Kuub as well as the use of commercial computer games in the classroom.
VR-Kuub allows teachers to create simple games and quizzes in a VR-format. We especially enjoyed the co-operative nature of the game (one student wears the goggles and describes what he sees to one or two classmates whose task it is to solve the task). Each national group then made VR-Kuub games that relate to their own subjects and we then had a lot of fun trying to complete the assignments together.
Michaël then told us how he has used commercial computer games like Plague Inc., Among Us and Assassin’s Creed both in classroom and distance learning contexts. He explained how he used the game Plague Inc. early on in the Corona epidemic to help students understand how epidemics work. He also showed us the potential of a big commercial game like Assassin’s Creed to transport students to different historical periods, which we all agreed was a wonderful way to ignite students’ interest.
Michaël’s workshop was a lot of fun and inspiring in a number of ways. We fully intend to present these ideas to our colleagues in Iceland.

In the beginning of year 2022 the situation in Iceland due to Covid 19 have never been so bad from the start of the pandemic. The Icelandic government decided not to let that affect the schools.
All schools opened on 5. January. Many students and teachers where in isolation or quarantine. Our teachers in Menntaskólinn í Reykjavík decided to have as normal classes as can be. Now we have Teams on so students at home can participate in the class. Usually we have 10 – 30% of our students at home, but they attend classes. Everyone agrees that this helps a lot. It is easier for teachers if the student can keep up with the study material and it is a lot easier to come back after week or two away.
Some
schools have had to close for few days if to many students and teachers are in
isolation/quarantine, but we hope that we will not have to.
