Online work

In the course of the project student teams, both national and transnational, worked online on project topics of destitute people, social media influence and life 21.

During training events mixed nationality groups worked together, discussed, created common digital outputs, which they presented to all participants of an event.

Flipped activities

A number of prep activities for students before each training event to get familiarized and ready for main topics of an upcoming event

Learning scenarios

We found inspiration for mixed nationality group work at training events in learning scenarios which are part of the Future Classroom Toolkit made within the EC-funded iTEC project.

"A Future Classroom Scenario is a narrative description of teaching and learning that provides a clear vision for innovation and advanced pedagogical practice supported by technology." (http://fcl.eun.org/toolkit)

Assessment rubrics

"A rubric is an assessment tool which sets up grading criteria for tasks. A rubric defines in writing what is expected of the student to get a particular grade on an assignment. A good rubric also describes levels of quality of the criteria." (www.uen.org/rubric/know.shtml)

Digital badges

„A digital badge is a validated indicator of accomplishment, skill, quality, or interest that can be earned in many learning environments.“ (fishergeeks.wordpress.com/2014/01/24/digitalbadges/)
