I'm participating in a eTwinning project after a MOOC about the subject. I would like to start a Erasmus project...

# data[].attributes.body
I have never worked with EDP. I would like to learn more about this opportunity.

Hi all,
I think I'm really lucky as I have participated as a partner or coordinator in Comenius, Erasmus + projects. Up to now we have completed 4 projects and it is my 9th year as a teacher. To be honest, as a teacher from Turkey, unfortunately, can be an obstacle for these projects. Of course, we can carry out many Etwinning projects easily but as we are non EU country sometimes our colleagues from other countries dont prefer us as a partner. My friends, war is everywhere, terrorism is everywhere please don't think every day bombs explode in Turkey. We can do really nice works as we have done up to now.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm participating in a etwining project the last to years, and the last summer I participated in a future classroom lab workshop. I'd like continued working in this way and start an
Erasmus plus project

# data[].attributes.body
I have a question

The way the Erasmus project helps us to implement the plan should be described in the EDP plan or is a separate chapter of the Erasmus application?

# data[].attributes.body
I did not participate in Erasmus projects, nor did I work with EDP, but I attend this course to initiate me.

EDP seems to be a great tool to develop a project. Looking forward to try it!

I've worked at EDP for KA1 action (staff mobility) and now I understood some mistake I could have done.

# data[].attributes.body
I have written EDP as it was required when my school participated in a project.It was a lot of work, but you need to have a plan to know where to go and what to do. It is true that it must be unique and prepared especially for your school, based on analyses of needs observation, questionnaries etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Two years ago I had the opportunity of a K A1 experience of mobility. I attended a course about ICT in Spain. It was very helpful for me, I shared the experience with my colleagues.

I have worked with EDP. Someone has to be accurate, realistic and to the point. As said EDP  is one of the most important parts of the proposal and has to be in line with the real needs of the school.

# data[].attributes.body
I have never applied for funding of any kind, nor participated to any project. I am here to try and learn some more.

# data[].attributes.body
I have never applied for KA1, only KA2 which was accepted. I thing that it s very impoortant to well choose the coordinator country....

I, in cooperation with my fellow teachers, prepared an EDP, and maybe it wasn't ideal, however, we did get the European funding.

I share all my experience with my collegues and they involved easily.

I could suggest to start from the real necessity of your school and not from your personal competences. The most important think is that the project must be coerent in any part and have a good dissemination.👍

European Development plan sounds quite a serious issue. I have the idea that it is connected with bringing Europe and European citizenship to the school community.
I think it is something that must be part of the school project and written assumed by the school administration and it is connected with the whole school approrach that was mentioned in the first module.

# data[].attributes.body
To my experience, the key for a successful EDP is a well defined idea, the needs to be covered and the impact of the project. Is that in place, then it is a matter of writting.

# data[].attributes.body
We applied for KA1. We had Comenius and Erasmus+ projects and we gained a lot experiences in the different school systems. We shared corresponding curricula and lessons with other teachers and tried to integrate some new findings in our school system as well. It had a great impact on our school. Also we found out that we had a lack of experiences of Web 2.0, ICT competences. So we decided to apply for KA1, job-shadowing.

# data[].attributes.body
I haven't had the opportunity to work with European Development Plan so far. I hope I will in the future, that's why I joined the course.

# data[].attributes.body
It requires access to very accurate data in school. It should be done together with the school managers.

# data[].attributes.body
Unfortunately, I have never worked with a European Development Plan. That's why I've joined the course, I want to learn about planning an Erasmus projec . It's very intetresting , so I want to talk my boss about it

# data[].attributes.body
I've already worked at a EDP when I partecipate in 2013 to a Comenius Lifelong Learning Programme for a In Service Training. It was a very interesting experience because I learned to select a training activity and to complete the application form of the project. I think that now it's very important to plan a EDP giving good motivation and good practice to develop during the training program.

If someone is interested in planning KA2 or looking for a partner from Poland, feel free to send me a message: patrycjawr@interia.pl
We have some experience in KA1. I must agree that EDP is the most important document at school

# data[].attributes.body
My school successfully run a Comenius project and Erasmus plus KA2, moreover two Erasmus KA1. We are host school for University students in the frame of Erasmus traineeship and for jobshadowing.
Our EDP is based on the embedding such experience in the regular school curriculum; the development of a plurilingual curriculum taking into account all languages spoken in our school; the development of eTwinning in the school curriculum as a mean to foster European citizenship awarness, language development, technology development. Our EDP is also addressed to participate at different European events and contexts such Europe code-week, the European day of languages.

# data[].attributes.body
At school we have EDP, but we have never applied for KA1 project. This school we will be a host school for job shadowing and this year we'd like to apply for KA1 job shadowing project. I can see these materials will help me to write the application in a proper way.

We are currently working on a whole school approach regarding internationalisation and how to work interkultural. We are going to participate in a KA2 project, and are going to apply for KA1 mobilities.

I designed a KA1 project which obtained a good score (95/100) but was on the waiting list and in the end was not funded. I wrote the EDP thinking about the real needs of the school (which I knew well because I had worked there for about 20 years) and having in mind the goals it was necessary to achieve. The tip I can give is: write it in detail, be specific, refer to the actual context. think about the needs of the school as a whole - of the staff and of the students

# data[].attributes.body
I'm taking part in a Erasmus project about journalism and actual topics, but I'd like to have more information and experience.

My school is involved in a KA1 project, the teachers has involved developed very important activities in the field of environmental sustainability, food sustainability ...
I believe that as the school is situated in a rural environment, where people and students have a low socio-economic level with limited future prospects and low literacy, these projects are a unique opportunity for students to acquire help them to have a better future.

Hello I'm Carmen, art teacher , I would be interested in Ersasmus +. My school would like to start a strategic partnership or jobshadowing work. We never participated and we were confused in the production of the project and application form, although this was very useful to understand some steps for the good project success.

# data[].attributes.body
In my school we had tried to get funds for KA1 for three years , but unfortunately we haven't had them yet! That's why I enrolled in this course, to understand the right way to plan the project. Thanks for all your suggestions.

# data[].attributes.body
I think this section is a key one to the entire application. I do not know how to properly fill it in. Maybe if I knew it when I applied twice the application would have been successfully. But after reading the information from this course, studying the template I will do it right.

# data[].attributes.body
Fist we have to know our the needs of our institution needs very wel, and then develop the plan.

I partecipated in an Erasmus KA2 project but I was not part of the staff who planned it so I am afraid I don't know much about EDP and I want to learn more because I am going to start a new one and I want to be able to plan it in the right way in order to have the project approved. I have been working with e-twinning projects for a long time and I still think I have a lot to learn; every project gives me new tips and ideas!

# data[].attributes.body
I never worked with EDP, but I since I have partecipated to an Etwinning project I would recommend  any applicant to use it.
Then if I  I wonder which is the key element   that  could make successful an  EDP, I would say  that  the wiser thing to do is to observe attentively the place we live and operate everyday questioning on the deep needs of it.

# data[].attributes.body
We have a financed KA1 project but I did not collaborate in its creation. I read the European Development Plan included in this project and I agree that it is the base for the whole project. It is essential to show that you know your intitution and its objectives in order to have your project approved

# data[].attributes.body
When one runs an etwinning project, one realizes that a training in something is required. Maybe in Clil, in a second language, ICT...Doing a project can clear up where your needs or your school needs are and can give a clue about the kind of training that best feets the school staff.

# data[].attributes.body
I never applied to KA1 but this course has great tips. I never worked with EDP.

I have been participating in a Erasmus+ KA2 project ("Leading Lights") since last year but I did not collaborate in the organization of it. so I still do not worked with European Development Plan. For now I have more experience in the organization and dynamization of etwinning projects. But in the future I would like to organize and coordinate an Erasmus + KA1 or KA2.

# data[].attributes.body
We have applied for Erasmus plus project but without success. We'll review our project and consider the tips above. I wish us "good luck!"

# data[].attributes.body
Unfortunately, I've never worked with EDP, but my school has attendend to some E+ projects. I hope I'll have the oppotunity to work with EDP...I'll start by sharing my experiences on eTwinning Platform.

Maybe if I had the choice to use it last years it would be easier for me to manage all the project

I submitted a project that was recognized by the National and the European Quality Label. But the school is happy, but the idea of ​​an Erasmus project is few. Mobility scares many, though for so many is a wonderful experience. The problem is that the organization provides for a general mobilization of the school that you probably do not feel ready yet.

Interesting template.

# data[].attributes.body
I think, the European Development Plan is the most important part of the application. If well done, it can give an exact and clear account of the school’s situation, needs and outputs.

We have to consider any details of the present sitaution and know (write) the expected outcomes exactly.

# data[].attributes.body
Just meet your school's management and maybe your school's council and follow closely the Leargas template. It is perfect! And forget pre-made applications coming from certain structured courses' providers, they don't work for your case.

The European Development Plan is a strategic vision of my school / organizations' plans for European activities and justifies the reason for introducing an international component in teaching and learning. EDP identifies the needs of the school in terms of plans for developing the quality of teaching and internationalization and defines how the planned activities will help meet those needs; defines the expected impact of Erasmus + on student learning, on teachers and at school and defines how the school will integrate the competencies and experiences gained by mobility participants into curricula and organizational practices.

It is not difficult to write if it is realistic, according to the needs of the school. For long term provides a internationalisation strategy and stimulates writing E+projects

Tips for filling in your European Development Plan

There is no one right way of filling in the European Development Plan, but here are some tips:

Have a look at the template prepared by Leargas, the Irish National Agency, as it gives you an indication which points to include in the plan.

Avoid using general information originating e.g. from course providers. This could make your application too generic and too similar to those of other applicants using the same source. The EDP has to be based on the school’s needs and plans, and external people rarely have this sort of information.

One common misconception is that the requested budget has to be substantial so that the project can have impact. However, the size of the project budget does not matter, and even a project with a small budget can achieve its desired objectives.

You may find that some course organisers and job-shadowing providers offer pre-filled application forms; we recommend you do not use these sorts of pre-filled applications, as this can have an impact on the quality of your European Development Plan. After all, these pre-filled applications do not correspond to the reality of your school / consortium needs.

We can't provide you with a standard text to add into your application because every application has to be unique. Remember to look back to other modules and chapters of this MOOC where you have already a lot of information on the Erasmus+ application process, whole-school approach, how to use eTwinning in your project, or tips for the KA1 application!

Have you already worked with European Development Plan? Do you have some tips yourself? Or maybe you have questions that some course colleagues can help with. Write them into this Padlet!

# data[].attributes.body
We have a KA1 at school. When whe had to do the EDP we gathered together and thought very thoroughly of our school, pupils and teachers assets were. Also, we discussed what we needed to improve and wrote down very simple and specific things that we wanted to be better.

It is important to establish a plan to achieve your goal, step by step and very realistic. Once you know what you need you neet to find the best way to get it, p.e training, peer observation.
Putting it simple: you need to find what makes you different and exploit it, become more specialized. Discover what you need and get it!
