Bringing Life Into the Classroom :
Innovative use of mobile devices in the educational process
Mobilities and Meetings
During the project period (October 2016-September 2018) 3 Transnational Project Meetings and 12 Mobilities were implemented, as follows :
Transnational Project Meetings (TPM)
TPM 1 : October 2016, Ferentino, Italy
TPM 2 : October 2017, Rhodes, Greece
TPM 3 : September 2018, Focșani, Romania
communication in a foreign language skills, cooperation and improve their level of mathematical knowledge, STEM and literacy. Each activity has a different dominant theme, so as to evaluate the potential use of mobile devices for as many domains as possible, allowing transferability of the proposed methods. We used as working method practical exercises, learning by doing, critical thinking. Each mobility was preceded by a virtual online session.
The Transnational Project Meetings were designed to assure the organizing of the Project activities, monitoring and evaluation.
In the meetings participated two representatives of each partner. They TPMs are an opportunity for the management staff of all partners, to exchange practices and to re-draw the project activities, according to the previous results, as well as carry out professional development activities of teachers involved. The three Transnational Project Meetings were distributed equally during the Project lifetime.
Blended mobilities of school learners
C1 : October 2016, Ferentino, Italy
C2 : March 2017, Istanbul, Turkey
C4 : October 2017, Rhodos, Greece
C5 : February 2018, Gorzyce, Poland
C6 : April 2018, Focșani, Romania
Each one of the 6 Blended mobilities of school learners (C1-C6), organised by partner schools,had a main theme of developed learning activities based on the use of mobile devices in the classroom and outside of school. The Blended mobilities of school learners are designed to help students develop digital skills and
Mobilities :
A total of 12 mobilities were implemented during the project. Each one of the six partner schools organised a "Short-term joint staff training events" and a "Blended mobility of school learners" :
Short-term join staff training events
C7 : October 2016, Ferentino, Italy
C8 : March 2017, Istanbul, Turkey
C10 : October 2017, Rhodos, Greece
The 6 Short-term joint staff training events (C7-C11) were held along with Blended mobilities of school learners, to provide an appropriate framework of specific methodology, which we proposed, to address the same themes from two different perspectives, teachers' and students'. In this way we
can compare the results to identify transferable results, the necessary corrections and determine how to best integrate mobile devices in education. During Staff training activities participating teachers attended lectures and workshops, practiced and proposed methods, created lesson plans and debated on m-learning.
