Creating an Innovative Platform of Communication and Teaching in a Digital Society

This eTwinning project is in connection with the Erasmus+ project “Creating an Innovative Platform of Communication and Teaching in a Digital Society”. The main assumption behind the project is the understanding that the teacher is the key figure in the educational process whose skills and competencies are decisive for the quality and effectiveness of education. The project team consists of seven different institutional partners (schools, an NGO, and two regional departments of education) from Bulgaria, Malta, the Netherlands, and Turkey. Thus, the project includes organizations that operate in diverse socio-economic, cultural, and educational contexts. The target group is made up of about 50 English language teachers and 200 pupils. In addition, the project will reach about 300 teachers and pupils from schools, not involved in the project. The project activities will have both short-term and long-term impacts.
