As an eTwinning Ambassador, I believe the best way to promote the platform in a school is by showcasing its benefits through real experiences from both students and teachers. This can be achieved by sharing project outcomes on the school website, social media, and display areas, as well as by presenting good practices during staff meetings and supporting colleagues who are new to eTwinning. In addition, involving students as active ambassadors through exhibitions, presentations, or school radio programmes helps demonstrate the real impact of international collaboration. When the whole school community can see concrete and inspiring results, interest in participating in eTwinning grows naturally.

# data[].attributes.body
As eTwinning ambassador I use to train other teachers about eTwinning projects. This picture is with some of the participants in my last training last October 2025. We are responsible of promoting these projects to other teachers in our school but also in other schools. I am very happy sharing my projects and teaching others how to use eTwinning.

In the school web page we also have a window to share our projects, so others can see it and learn. We also have a physical eTwinning corner in our school where we share information about our projects. I have participated also in radio interviews and conferences talking about eTwinning and its benefits. I am very happy of being part of the ambassadors Team.

Promoting eTwinning in Initial Teacher Education

As an eTwinning Ambassador in Initial Teacher Education (ITE), I aim to introduce student teachers to the value of international collaboration early in their professional journey. eTwinning provides a creative and accessible way to explore international cooperation, digital pedagogy and innovative classroom practices.

In my courses, I promote eTwinning by providing practical examples and running micro-projects and short try-out sessions. In these sessions, students can explore the TwinSpace and develop their first project ideas in cooperation with the NSS.

Successful approaches at my institution include:

.) Implementing eTwinning ITE projects at my university

.) Sharing project reports and highlights on our social media channels to reach a wider audience

) Strengthening our networking with national and international partner universities to foster sustainable collaboration on eTwinning

.) Promoting eTwinning across our institutional networks and professional communities

.) Using eTwinning within school practice placements, especially to support international students in gaining authentic teaching experiences

By making eTwinning tangible and offering authentic hands‑on experiences, student teachers gain confidence and motivation to integrate international collaboration into their future classrooms.

Hi, I am a primary school teacher

Creating an active eTwinning environment in school means showing, by example, how many benefits international collaboration can bring. Our students are eager to participate in projects that match their interests and educational needs.

The eTwinning Ambassador serves as support—for both students and teachers—who can always rely on help when carrying out projects. It is valuable to build a team of collaborating teachers within the school to inspire each other, share experiences, and develop creative eTwinning initiatives.

Through these activities, our school becomes a place open to new experiences, international cooperation, and practical learning through projects that combine education with an exciting adventure.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, being an eTwinning Ambassador in a primary school offers many benefits both for teachers and for the entire educational community. First of all, it allows the ambassador to support and inspire other teachers to participate in international collaborative projects, helping them discover new ways of teaching and learning through cooperation with schools across Europe.

Another important benefit is the opportunity to promote innovative methodologies in the classroom. Through eTwinning projects, teachers can integrate digital tools, project-based learning, and intercultural communication, which enriches the learning experience of primary students and helps them develop key competences such as teamwork, creativity, and digital literacy.

In addition, being an eTwinning Ambassador helps strengthen the international dimension of the school. It encourages connections with other European schools, fosters cultural exchange, and allows students to learn about different traditions, languages, and perspectives from an early age.

The role also contributes to the professional development of the ambassador and the teaching staff. By sharing good practices, organizing training sessions, and supporting colleagues, the ambassador helps build a collaborative culture within the school and promotes continuous learning among teachers.

Finally, the presence of an eTwinning Ambassador can increase the visibility and reputation of the school, highlighting its commitment to innovation, collaboration, and European educational values.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, eTwinning ambassadors should actively promote and support eTwinning in their schools by encouraging all the school teachers and their students to participate. It is important that all the community knows about eTwinning and ts benefits sharing school succesful projects in meetings, school events or the web page.

Ambassadors should also support new teachers by helping them to join eTwinning and start their first projects. In my school we encourage them to participate in interdisciplinary projects, with other experienced teachers.

Finally, ambassadors should encourage their schools to work toward the eTwinning School Label, promoting collaboration, inclusion, and innovation, and helping students become agents of change within the school community. I also agree with other teachers that eTwinning should be integrated in the curriculum, supported by the management team. That's the guarantee to get a sustainable experience. eTwinning should be part of the school day by day. Ah! And it is also important not to forget the synergies with other international projects. eTwinning and Erasmus can go hand in hand and motivate students even more, while also increasing the visibility of their work. Erasmus projects can also help highlight and strengthen eTwinning activities, making the projects more visible and impactful for the whole school community.

# data[].attributes.body
An eTwinning ambassador supports teachers and helps them start simple international projects. They share ideas, listen to colleagues and offer easy solutions so more teachers feel confident to participate. By being open, helpful and enthusiastic, ambassadors encourage cooperation and creative learning with schools across Europe. This helps students learn about different cultures, work together and feel part of Europe. Using this approach in our school helped more teachers join eTwinning and develop European projects, which led us to become an eTwinning School.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that eTwinning ambassadors have to go further than their own schools. Of course they have to promote eTwinning first with the very colleagues, but also with other schools from the same town and even for their region. I believe the own school is a good starting point but the work of an ambassador goes beyond this

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that my role as an eTwinning Ambassador and a Chemistry teacher is to introduce the programme and its educational goals within my school and to share successful practices with colleagues. I joined the eTwinning programme in the academic year 2024–2025 and was awarded both the National Quality Label and the European Quality Label. I promote eTwinning by raising awareness among teachers and students through the school morning assembly, publishing projects carried out by my students and me on the school’s official page and social media platforms, dedicating a board to display ongoing projects, and presenting project outcomes within the school.

As an eTwinning ambassador, I believe that promoting eTwinning in schools works best through motivation, visibility and shared experiences. From my own practice, I have learned that colleagues are most easily inspired when they see concrete examples of successful projects and when they feel supported throughout the process.

I am a teacher in my sixth year at the FS Schloss Stein. Our school has been accredited since 2022, and since then I have been involved in three eTwinning projects. In each project, I deliberately tried to involve as many colleagues as possible and to spread the eTwinning mindset across different subjects – which has always been successful. Motivation, creativity and continuity are key: encouraging colleagues to try, to stay involved and to enjoy the process makes a real difference.

Since 2025, we have been an official eTwinning School. At our school, Erasmus+ and eTwinning are integrated into all major school events and activities. We have created an Erasmus+ corner to make international projects visible and accessible for students, teachers and visitors. In addition, we actively support other agriculture colleges in Styria, as we are currently the only accredited vocational school in Austria.

Even when no mobility takes place, we stay in close contact with our partner schools through eTwinning projects. Regular online collaboration and exchange help us maintain strong partnerships and keep the European dimension alive in everyday school life.

My goal as an ambassador is to go even deeper: to continue motivating colleagues, to network, to share experiences and to further disseminate the Erasmus+ and eTwinning spirit. I strongly believe that eTwinning is a powerful, creative and sustainable way to connect schools across Europe and to make international cooperation a natural part of teaching and learning :) I am looking forward to everything that is to come! :) Here is the link to our website - https://www.fachschulen.steiermark.at/cms/ziel/103638653/DE/

have been teaching English for 16 years, and last year was my first experience with eTwinning. It was a very successful start, as my project received both the National and European Quality Labels. This year, I am involved in four eTwinning projects, and I was honored to be appointed as an eTwinning Ambassador.

Within my school, I actively promote eTwinning by sharing project activities and students’ products on the school’s official pages, helping to increase awareness and motivation among teachers and students.

I also support my colleagues inside the school by helping them register on the eTwinning platform and encouraging them to join ongoing projects. Through collaboration, teachers gain confidence and become more open to integrating eTwinning into their teaching.

In addition, we organize an eTwinning Day at school, where projects are presented, students’ work is showcased, and the impact of eTwinning on learning is highlighted. I encourage student involvement as ambassadors and integrate eTwinning activities into my English classes to ensure sustainability.

I believe that sharing experiences, teamwork, and celebrating success within the school are the most effective ways to promote eTwinning.

# data[].attributes.body
Ambassadors should promote eTwinning in their schools by connecting it to meaningful, long-term projects that show a clear impact on students, teachers, and the whole school community. One of the most effective strategies is to start from successful experiences and transform them into inspirational models that others can easily replicate or adapt.

In my view, ambassadors should act as project designers and facilitators, not only as promoters. For example, an eTwinning project inspired by The Ways of Europe. Walking & Learning can show how eTwinning is a gateway to high-quality European projects. This project, which later became an Erasmus+ Role Model 2022, was born on eTwinning and involved many classes and teachers from the same school. This demonstrates that eTwinning can foster collaborative curriculum design, interdisciplinary work, and active student participation through experiential learning.

To promote and disseminate eTwinning in my school, I would:

Share concrete evidence of impact, such as students’ digital artefacts, collaborative maps, walking diaries, and reflections produced during the project.

Organise peer-to-peer workshops where teachers involved in the project explain how eTwinning supports active methodologies like project-based learning, outdoor education, and CLIL.

Use visual storytelling (photos, short videos, Padlet boards) to document the learning process and make it visible within the school and beyond.

Highlight the European dimension and the professional growth opportunities for teachers, showing how an eTwinning project can evolve into Erasmus+ experiences.

Successful approaches include starting with a small group of motivated teachers, working on a shared theme connected to the curriculum, and gradually scaling up the project to involve more classes. Dissemination becomes effective when eTwinning is presented not as an extra task, but as a powerful framework for innovation, collaboration, and internationalisation of the school.

The promotion and dissemination of eTwinning in my school are carried out continuously through information, training, and support activities for teachers interested in eTwinning. I have created a dedicated WhatsApp group for eTwinning, which includes teachers from my county as well as from other counties across the country. Within this group, I share announcements about eTwinning events (face-to-face workshops, webinars, eTwinning campaigns) and provide support by answering questions related to the platform and the implementation of projects. In addition, I have initiated an eTwinning project specifically designed to allow workshop participants to practice using the platform. I complement these activities by organizing webinars focused on eTwinning, thus contributing to the development of teachers’ digital and collaborative competences.

# data[].attributes.body
eTwinning Ambassadors play an important role in disseminating the opportunities offered by the platform through engaging activities and concrete examples of success, such as:

Hands-on workshops for teachers – short training sessions introducing the eTwinning platform and the steps needed to start a project. I organized a workshop with a group of teachers from my school focused on creating an EU Login account and an ESEP eTwinning profile: https://padlet.com/gbadau/georgeta-b-d-u-primii-pa-i-n-etwinning-ak1sadg9a9b03u03

Promotion of implemented projects – showcasing final products (posters, presentations, videos) both at school and online. I have written several articles for pedagogical journals and educational publications, and every year I have presented at least one eTwinning project during pedagogical meetings: https://georgetabadau.wordpress.com/2024/07/28/14902/

Online dissemination – publishing project results on the school website and on social media. I created a dedicated section on my educational blog, “Pedagogical Experiences”, specifically for eTwinning projects: https://georgetabadau.wordpress.com/despre-etwinning/

Creating a physical and virtual eTwinning information point at school – I founded an eTwinning Club with its headquarters in one of the high school classrooms, as well as a virtual information point: https://padlet.com/georgetabadau/colegiul-na-ional-horea-clo-ca-i-cri-an-din-alba-iulia-coal--pd7zw33x9ukktg3e

Organizing a small celebratory event – during which the school principal awarded diplomas to students involved in projects that received the National Quality Label (NQL).

# data[].attributes.body
Promoting eTwinning means motivating colleagues and showing them that a different approach to teaching is possible and beneficial.

Short meetings and events (e.g., an eTwinning open day) actively engage teachers.

Presenting project results on the school website encourages curiosity and motivation.

Collaboration across subjects builds a network of involved teachers.

Practical support for newcomers – explaining steps, helping with registration and tools.

Mentoring by experienced eTwinners – inviting colleagues into projects to build confidence.

The key is to encourage teachers, demonstrate the benefits, and embed eTwinning into the existing curriculum so it becomes a natural part of school life.

In my school I plan to organize short sessions for teachers to explain what eTwinning is, its benefits, and how it works. Help my colleagues create an eTwinning account, navigate the platform, and join their first project. Encourage enthusiastic students to share their experiences and motivate their peers, connect with nearby schools to form a regional eTwinning community, promote my eTwinning school activities on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or the school website. And keep my school community informed about eTwinning’s European dimension and opportunities for growth. I see eTwinning as an opportunity for international cooperation and connection with different schools from the region, Europe, and around the world.

# data[].attributes.body
I think as an ambassador I best promote eTwinning by presenting successfully carried out projects to colleagues and students who might be interested in joining the programme. From my experience I can say that eTwinning is the best programme to connect with students from all over Europe and it is therefore the best way to learn languages naturally. It's a playful, creative and innovative programme which makes learning much more fun! At our school we have an eTwinning corner, too. We also have a folder where the first steps of creating a project can be looked up.

# data[].attributes.body
An easy way to start: The teacher chooses a "menu": The Ambassador has prepared 3-5 short, catchy project ideas (like a card menu) - e.g. "Christmas Recipes from around Europe", "Digital Fairy Tales for Grade 1", "Eco-Challenge Photo Diary". 2. 5-minute discussion: The Ambassador briefly discusses how the teacher could get involved in the selected type of project (What are the 3 easy steps to get started?). 3. Takes away the "Recipe": The teacher receives a physical or digital card (Project Recipe) containing: the project name, target age group, links to subjects and a QR code to register directly in eTwinning or to the inspiration gallery of projects.

I think the best way to promote eTwinning in school is to make it visible and meaningful for everyone. We can share students’ work on a school board or in a small exhibition, talk about our projects during celebrations, and invite parents to see what children created. I also like showing colleagues how easy it is to join by sharing my own experiences in a short meeting or over coffee.

I am an eTwinning ambassador since 2024 and I have been teaching at the Sf. Dumitru Secondary School in Craiova since 2021. When I arrived at this school, only one teacher had an account on the eTwinning platform. I started promoting the platform and the projects that can be carried out on it through round tables, as well as in the teachers' councils. Gradually, the number of colleagues who joined the platform increased. Last year, I organized a training course, with several colleagues participating in the activity. In the school hallways and in the computer lab, I posted several posters from the various projects that I carry out.

Working in eTwinning projects has completely changed my life and the way I work in the classroom. I talk about these things with all the teachers I meet. I promote eTwinning projects in the activities I carry out as a trainer, in online or onsite events, in my school and outside. Wherever I go to these events, I proudly wear the eTwinning insignia (t-shirts, badges, bags). I wrote course materials for the Teaching Staff House in my county and I held these courses together with another eTwinning ambassador. I also believe that we do promotion through the willingness to always respond to any beginner who writes us a message and asks us to clarify something, to any teacher who invites us to their school to promote these projects.

Ambassadors in their school should promote eTwinning by organizing interactive workshops and presentations for both students and teachers, explaining the benefits and opportunities offered by the platform. They can also create discussion groups and online communities to encourage collaboration among students and educators. For dissemination, they can use posters, social media posts on the school's pages, and organize themed events during homeroom or extracurricular clubs. A successful example is organizing an eTwinning project contest that engages students and raises awareness about the platform.
I can upload images of the posters I created or links to my presentations about eTwinning. https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2F1drv.ms%2Fp%2Fc%2F3e1250f750bc5e8d%2FEZw_pEG5uKFAhqITD3FVzOAB2_nIVw8bLI3KOn-njD3b_A%3Fe%3DRRyndy%26fbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR6AUMf0SfhyLH3THlCj_FZf5_7lrxuXXYOwNtxBvls8v6K6P7-tCAaMebcY-g_aem_nScgez7PG43OWw51jbTE4A&h=AT03858B_INmh0A6XD6QMoe43h-8_-0lysk3fVrofl66ly9XbJbIDp-JLWXZdfY513H9ykInAd7m_zNjzoSrGJZUpcmGpUua2s0X44U1Mzozq2_LDatNPsSKNUQqI4KlT6DMB8Lr2V84vCiv&__tn__=-UK-R&c[0]=AT1a3tn5g5GYzGma8paKk3bWhld7V62d--vV-oQjsekp_CY4gmAI0sBgu-qEmZdxRzrnu1XgP1bxzs_7LT-tBzypEX9bYAt43zN6bEYzmAJcZlh7OzKRJdX_GkhNn58bZoTTiPpPfWI30NiVMM3mAXmlRDmZWitL9co7M_rqd8W2MmI23nKD

eTwinning Café & Peer Support Group

In my school, I plan to promote eTwinning by organizing informal monthly sessions called “eTwinning Café”, where interested teachers can drop by, ask questions, and see real project examples. I will use visuals from previous projects and encourage colleagues to share their small successes.

Additionally, I will create a peer support group on WhatsApp for real-time advice and sharing opportunities.

A successful strategy in the past was a “tasting session” where students presented their project outcomes during a school event – it attracted other teachers’ interest.

I plan to use posters, short videos created with Canva, and project journals to disseminate activities.

I’ve shared the valuable experiences and insights I’ve gained through various eTwinning projects to highlight their positive impact both for educators as well as for students. Raising awareness about the benefits of taking part in eTwinning projects is something I consider essential, and I have supported educators in numerous projects. Looking forward to be part of this eTwinning ambassador community.

The most important thing for an Ambassador is to keep teachers aware of eTwinning's potential as a tool of developing young minds: also eTwinning has gone through a change in recent years, as the educational field in general, and an Ambassador is the person who introduces teachers to new tools and ideas. The world around us changes, and eTwinning is teh first step for pupils to learn how to navigate a global digital environment; in the future, it could be part of their work to operate internationally.

The main activity of an ambassador is to give support, to help others to do eTwinning projects and to encourage teachers to use creative methods. The projects are important for each teacher because involves more creative methods, activities .

These projects involve parents, community and students will be prepare to have an important role in a future society.

I've been an enthusiastic eTwinner teacher since 2015 and eTwinning Ambassador since 2022.

At the moment I'm trying to motivate and support other teachers from my school to start working on eTwinning, making them experience directly what means for our students meet and work with other European students. Last year, I created a project and involved 2 colleagues , who experienced new metodologies on the twinspace with their crosscurricular contributions to the project topics. It was great for them to have our project awarded with a European Quality Label. It was a huge challenge for me and for them too, that certainly is going to pave the way to future opportunities with eTwinning and Erasmus+ as well.

Hello everyone, my name is Milena and I've been working for 18 years as a Spanish teacher with high school students. I also teach an elective programme Language, media and culture. I'm active eTwinner since 2020 and I received several prizes NQL and EQL. In my school, I hosted workshops for teachers to demonstrate how eTwinning works, its benefits, and how to get started with projects. For students, I organized interactive sessions to show them how eTwinning can expand their learning experience by connecting them with peers from other European countries. Once a year, I use school assemblies and parent-teacher meetings to inform parents and the wider school community about the benefits of eTwinning. Also, I set up an eTwinning stand at school open days, where teachers and students can showcase projects that have been done in collaboration with European schools.

Hi, I'm a kindergarten teacher in Marseille and I've been working on eTwinning projects since 2021.

As an ambassador, I organise information meetings in my school to get my colleagues involved. I help them to take part in projects.

Hello everybody,

I am so happy to be among all the eTwinning ambassadors this year.

I have been involved in eTwinning projects during Covid- 19 and since then I have never stopped . I had National and European quality labels for projects dealing with the environment , well -being and Olympic sports. This year I am working on two different projects : one on the ideal world and the other one on bridges to EU values.

I attended a European seminar in Sarajevo and there I found my partners for my second project.

Last year, since I am a teacher trainer for the National Education Board I did a training on eTwinning with the local eTwinning coordinator and I shared my little experience with my English colleagues. I helped them set up projects and showed them presentations of my eTwinning projects. I hope to inspire my colleagues .I am always ready to help them and invite them to be "on the move " and keep smiling ( see the picture of myself above ) because it's very important to collaborate and have fun.

# data[].attributes.body
As an eTwinning ambassador, I have done events, courses and projects at the end of the projects to promote eTwinning. I have partecipated at National ambassadors meetings and I created an eTwinning corner in my school. I have won the National prize on 2023

# data[].attributes.body
I have known and used eTwinning since 2014. It is not always easy but it is very motivating and challenging to try it. I have been lucky and I have met more experienced eTwinners thanks to whom I have learnt a lot. As an Ambassador I would like to be able to promote the eTwinning dimensions as a way to collaborate and be creative, by giving virtual examples and results, tips to find solutions to problems you can find of the way. I hope to support properly colleagues and new eTwinners.

Being an eTwinning ambassador involves providing assistance to those in need and advocating for the eTwinning initiative. In my role as a trainer for ICT teachers, I facilitate the process of connecting educators with potential partners, support them in developing their projects, and guide them in utilizing the platform effectively.

# data[].attributes.body
As an eTwinning ambassador, I have done events and parties at the end of the projects to promote eTwinning, so I have created a board where we display activities of the eTwinning projects in my classroom. Every meeting with teachers I talk about eTwinning activities to encourage my colleagues to join us.

I am an educational technologist and a teacher in a school. Since September of this year, I am also an eTwinning ambassador. It is important for me to help teachers who are just starting eTwinning activities. This is a good opportunity to introduce eTwinning activities, be helpful, answer questions and find solutions together.

Since I work in a school, it is good for me to introduce eTwinning activities to other teachers. In addition, we can do projects. I can encourage them to find partners and create projects.

Hello dear eTwinning ambassadors,

First of all, I'm really happy to be a part of this community. I work as the eTwinning and STEM provincial coordinator in ÇORUM. I am a preschool teacher and an eTwinner since the 2016-2017 school year. I became an eTwinning ambassador in 2021. This is a challenge that involves being a role model, inspiring my colleagues by dedicating myself to personal and professional growth and collaboration, engaging with community members, and providing guidance, tools, and opportunities to succeed and create.

The big picture in my vision is the transformation of my educational community and other local schools into a globally connected environment. I aspire to develop a culture of collective leadership that is aligned with the core values ​​of eTwinning. Using eTwinning, I aim to expand my collaboration beyond my local area by promoting international connections and innovative practices. By ensuring that all our teachers take part in eTwinning projects, I try to support them and our students in adding professional benefits.

My effort to create positive change in education using eTwinning also includes inspiring and mentoring other teachers in my area. I will do my best to succeed and create.

Hello everyone. I have been a member of eTwinning since 2015 and have been actively using eTwinning since 2019. I have been working in education in Serbia for 20 years. This year, I became one of the 22 eTwinning ambassadors in my country. I believe that eTwinning ambassadors attract the attention and interest of colleagues through their example, work, and results. When we, as ambassadors, succeed in helping our colleagues become members of eTwinning, our role turns into what was mentioned at the beginning of the video: support, support, support. So far, at the school where I am employed, I have given presentations, conducted project initiation workshops, involved colleagues in project implementation, and engaged in collaborative activities. I believe that the experience eTwinning ambassadors have is invaluable for beginners, and our support can greatly ease their first steps in eTwinning.

Hello, my name is Vykinta and I have been working on eTwinning projects since 2009. I started working on these projects when I was working in Lithuania and when I came to Belgium, I continued to develop the same idea. It wasn't easy because I felt alone. But now our team is growing.

Involving teachers and pupils in projects is a challenge, but I am determined to promote eTwinning effectively and encourage colleagues to get involved. Here are some strategies I implement:

1.     Social Media and Website Dissemination: publicise the results of projects on our school’s social media platforms and website. This increases visibility and engagement from the school community.

2.    Success Stories and Testimonials: share compelling stories and positive feedback from those who have benefited from eTwinning projects. This personal approach can inspire others to participate.

3.    Highlighting Benefits: communicate the specific benefits of eTwinning projects, emphasizing how they enhance educational outcomes and provide valuable learning experiences.

4.    Workshops: crganize workshops to guide teachers through the eTwinning process and help them start their own projects. These sessions are crucial for building confidence and skills.

5.    Visual Campaigns: use visual aids such as posters, flyers, and digital slideshows throughout the school to showcase key eTwinning projects and their outcomes, demonstrating their alignment with educational goals.

6.    Peer Coaching: offer one-on-one support to colleagues new to eTwinning. This personalized coaching can significantly reduce the intimidation often associated with new initiatives.

7.    Regular Updates: maintain a regular newsletter or blog to keep the community informed about eTwinning projects, celebrating achievements, and highlighting upcoming events and resources.

8.    Recognition and Rewards: acknowledge and reward both teachers and students who actively engage in eTwinning. Recognition can be in the form of certificates, public acknowledgments during assemblies, or small prizes.

9.    Integration into School Events: utilize existing school events like parent-teacher meetings, school fairs, and open days to exhibit eTwinning projects. Set up booths or presentations where participants can share their project experiences and outcomes with a broader audience.

By implementing these strategies, we aim to foster a supportive and collaborative environment that encourages participation in eTwinning projects.

I've been working with eTwinning since 2014 and I was the only one in my school at the very beginning. I became an ambassador in 2016. I am also an Erasmus+ coordinator in my school and e-referent.

I teach Dutch and English in lower secondary school in the south of Belgium. I often collaborate with Flemish colleagues to work on eTwinning Belgica projects. And I have done other European projects as well.

In my school I have the support of the school board.

In order to convince and motivate colleagues to join the eTwinning community I have organized lunch time meetings around eTwinning. I introduced the program, showed some of my projects and answered the questions. I also insist that I'm their coach, I'm there to help (and they ask for it). So I feel useful.

Every month I publish a kind of e-booklet with interesting tools, lectures, ...

I also share information about seminars to encourage them to take part in them.

eTwinning is really a part of me and I wouldn't be able to teach without it.

And I continue to follow courses and webinars to learn more and more.

# data[].attributes.body
Since 2019, I am eTwinning ambassador. I try to help my collegues by several ways because support is one of the most important way to spread the message.

Hello eTwinning ambassadors. I am really happy to be part of this group. I teach English at an eTwinning school in the north west of Spain. I became an eTwinner 15 years ago and an ambassador in 2023, a challenge that involves being a role model, inspiring peers by devoting to personal and professional development and collaboration, engaging with community members, and providing guidance, tools and opportunities to succeed and create positive change in education.  The bigger picture in my vision is the transformation of my educational community and other local schools into a globally connected environment. I am aspiring to cultivate a culture of collective leadership that aligns with the core values eTwinning schools.

I have been a member of the eTwinning community since 2015, and starting from this year, I have also become an eTwinning ambassador. So far, I have been promoting eTwinning not only in my school but also in other schools in my city, sharing my very positive experiences and knowledge gained through various eTwinning projects. Promoting the impact of participation in eTwinning projects is also very important. I have devised several simple and short projects that I have involved colleagues from my school in, providing them with active support and showing them all the benefits of joining the eTwinning community.

In January 2024, I was elected ambassador of eTwinning BiH. Even as a non-ambassador I always promoted eTwinning in my school and the wider community by creating short training courses and giving my support to every eTwinning project.

My intention is to promote the eTwinning platform and its richness among my colleagues and my students, showing them that it is not only a space to perform virtual projects, but much more. eTwinning is part of the curriculum.

I have been teaching English for 20 years in a primary school in a small town in Serbia. I have become a great fan of eTwinning and that eventually led me to becoming an eTwinning ambassador. The way I try to motivate my colleagues at school is that I always held a presentation after I receive an European Quality Label as an example of good practice. Teachers also like learning about new web tools, so I use that topic to teach them about eTwinning. I also used tools from my eTwinning projects to held a presentation at the Teachers' association meeting about using tools for differentiation in your classroom.

I’ve been an Erasmus ambassador for a couple of years but I’ve been engaged in eTwinning project since I first started teaching in 2014. eTwinning is an extremely motivating tool both for teachers and students and the results need to be shared among the school community in order to be understood and to become inspirational for the others.

# data[].attributes.body
In the school where I teach, I have always been involved in teacher training, but I have been ambassador only since 2022. The enthusiasm and curiosity that have always characterized me have become contagious since that moment. I have attended conferences and seminars, I have visited schools and I have spoken with many teachers to whom I have transmitted my enthusiasm, providing support and reassurance and always making myself available. All this gratifies me a lot and gives meaning to my being a European citizen.

As an eTwinning Ambassador I act as a connection between our school and the eTwinning community, fostering connections and collaborations with educators across Europe and beyond. Additionally, I promote the eTwinning platform among our staff, encouraging them to engage in innovative projects that enhance teaching and learning experiences. I organize workshops, training sessions, and provide ongoing support to teachers interested in integrating eTwinning projects into their curriculum. Furthermore, I actively participate in local and international eTwinning events, sharing our school's success stories and learning from others' experiences. Ultimately, my aim is to inspire a culture of collaboration, creativity, and global citizenship within our school community through the dynamic opportunities offered by eTwinning.

Being an ambassador means being someone others want to follow, setting a good example in teaching, and waiting for others to see its importance. That's a good start. Then we can talk about collaboration, working on projects, and being supportive at every moment.

The best example is being the best example.

To be an eTwinning ambassador, means to give support to who needs it, is to promote the use of eTwinning. As an ICT teachers trainer, I help teachers to find partners, I help them in building their project and in the use of the platform.

Considering the previous video, drawing from my experience as an active eTwinning participant since 2015, I believe that ambassadors should employ a multifaceted approach to effectively promote eTwinning in their schools. In the context of our school in Loulé, Portugal, my idea for promoting and disseminating eTwinning is to leverage the power of word-of-mouth, actively involve members of the school community, and maintain continuous engagement.

To engage other we could

-- Try to encourage all to share success stories and positive experiences with eTwinning during staff meetings or professional development sessions.

-- Facilitate informal discussions among teachers during breaks, highlighting the impact of eTwinning on student learning outcomes and global collaboration.

-- Create a dedicated space, such as a bulletin board or a digital display, to showcase past and present eTwinning projects and their achievements.

-- Organize informational sessions/workshops to introduce eTwinning to teachers, students, and parents (online or onsite). Provide hands-on demonstrations to showcase the simplicity and benefits of the platform.

-- Establish a support network within the school community where experienced eTwinners can mentor and guide newcomers, fostering a collaborative atmosphere, or involve newcomers in their projects giving them some rules and participation.

-- Implement a communication plan that includes regular updates on eTwinning activities, achievements, and opportunities. Utilize school distribution lists to keep everyone informed or school social media platforms.

-- Organize eTwinning-themed events once per term, such as showcases or exhibitions, where students can present their collaborative projects to the school community.

-- Integrate eTwinning into existing school events, such as open houses or parent-teacher meetings, to reach a wider audience.

Well being a sharing helping engaging ambassador.

I have been working for several years in eTwinning projects and have integrated it in all my courses. I imagine my role as an ambassador as a motivator for all colleagues to implement it, no matter what subject they teach and in very interdisciplinary projects.

At our school we have trained a teacher at each level in eTwinning to act as a multiplier effect.

Hello!

I've been a member of eTwinning since 2013 and have recently embarked on my first year as an eTwinning Ambassador. In this new role, my main goal is collaboration, knowledge sharing and mutual enrichment between schools and students from different parts of Europe.

I am a teacher in an eTwinning school, where I share my knowledge and experience with my colleagues and students through workshops or presentations with the aim of actively involving them in eTwinning projects, offering support and guidance and exchanging best practices and innovative ideas, promoting continuous improvement. Because I consider it a privilege to be part of this vibrant, global community, where the focus is on collaboration, knowledge sharing and mutual enrichment between schools and students from different parts of Europe.

Overall, being an eTwinning ambassador will allow me to make a difference and promote international collaboration and understanding among European students.

Hello everyone,

I teach English as a foreign language in a Lower Secondary School in Pesaro.

I have been training to use technology in the classroom then I started to train teachers in my and other schools so I became an excellent point of reference for them.

I've always tried to develop my students' digital skills, too. I have been ICT coordinator and administrator and I've started using new methodologies in class, such as Flipped Teaching and Project-based learning;

when I met the eTwinning Community in 2015 and started to join projects it was just the right place where I could use my experience and give my classroom activities a more important meaning.

At first it wasn't so easy to understand the potentiality of the means and when I finally realized there was anything I needed on the eTwinning platform I've started to promoted it, to invite my colleagues to join it and try to open their classroom activities to the eTwinning Community, actually it was hard but I managed to create eTwinning communities in the schools where I worked in the last 8 years.

Hello everyone,

this is my second year as an eTwinning ambassador.

Last year I had the opportunity to be part of the on-site ambassador meeting in Lissabon and I loved it.

This year, I am trying to make more people aware of eTwinning and its possibilities. Our NSO supports me great on that.

Furthermore I am asked from time to time to show one of my labeled projects. It is always a great pleasure to get to know more people and show them what eTwinning can do.

Thanks for having me!

Hello to all etwinners,

It's a pleasure for me to be here with you.

I've been an etwinner since 2009 and I'm now also an eTwinning mentor at my school. Since I discovered eTwinning, the teaching-learning process has been much easier for me because my students love working collaboratively with colleagues from other countries. At my school I try to motivate my colleagues to promote and participate in eTwinning projects.

To motivate my colleagues, what I do is show them examples of successful projects, ask the students who take part to give their testimonies so that they realise that, for the students, projects of this kind are really motivating.

As an etwinning ambassador, a challenge I have accepted, I want to motivate not only my colleagues at school, but also those in my country. I will always be available to help colleagues on the platform and to support them in creating projects. And, of course, to help increase the number of eTwinners in Portugal.

Hello!

As an active  eTwinner since 2008, I have always shared the projects with the school community and my fellow colleagues, having invited some to the projects.

I have run several workshops to introduce my colleagues to eTwinning platform and teaching methodology and to show the positive impacts of involving students in eTwinning projects. I  also participated in national and international  conferences to disseminate awarded eTwinning projects.

I was appointed eTwinning ambassador this school year 2023/24,and as such I actively promote the platform by organising informative workshops and sessions for teachers, administrators, and students not only in my school but also in other schools. These sessions highlight the numerous benefits of eTwinning, emphasizing collaboration, digital skills enhancement, and cultural exchange. I always invite students and other colleagues to showcase success stories from our school. Managing dedicated social media accounts, I regularly share updates and content to engage the school community online. Additionally, I conduct targeted training sessions for interested teachers, providing practical guidance on project creation and collaboration tools. I believe my role is to create an informed and supportive environment that encourages educators and students to embrace the exciting opportunities that eTwinning offers, making it an integral part of our educational experience

# data[].attributes.body
There are many things that can be done in a community to promote learning via educational projects. Some of the activities that are most appelaing to students and teachers are the ones that are mostly based on collaboration and/or cooperation. Learning from the others or being helpful to the others has alwasy been effective. In my community what I could do best is make it available for everyone to join at any step of the project. Publishing the activities on social media sites but also being open to helping the new members is crucial for a successful project implementation.

Some of the steps that I consider important are:

1. Promote the project among peers and on social media platfroms respecting the rules of being safe online.

2. Include participants and help in understanding the steps of a successful outcome.

3. Being open to changes and adaptation of new techniques or resources for a better result.

4. Disseminate the outcomes among partners.

5. Appreciate the outcome of each participant.

Ambassadors can promote eTwinning in schools by organizing training sessions, creating eye-catching materials, and using school communication channels. Encouraging teachers to share their positive experiences and creating a dedicated collaboration space can build a supportive environment. Integrating eTwinning projects into the curriculum and recognizing achievements through awards can make it more appealing. Simple, engaging workshops and information sessions during staff meetings can effectively highlight the benefits of eTwinning. Lastly, involving parents and using social media to share success stories can broaden awareness within the school community.

A lot of French ambassadors in primary schools decided to make a project to encourage at least one of their colleagues to join etwinning. They created 2 mascotts, representing the blue and the yellow characters of the etwinning logo. Each mascott is sending to the half country and the other to the the other part. By this way, they make a journey during all the year and finaly arrives to the NSO. During this journey, they make videos to present their schools and towns. Children can follow the journey on a map. It's a simple and great project to begin as a new etwinner. We decided this idea when we met at our national meeting last spring, we communicate on a WhatsApp group and via the TwinSpace to organize the project.

I teach in a school that has been awarded the eTwinning school label three times already. I live eTwinning and try to pay it forward with all my knowledge and enthusiasm. I believe in the power of personal examples and I am particularly proud for being able to grow the eTwinning community in my school. I involve in projects, I help others, I collaborate and share... and this is how the entire community is growing and sharing.

Really love eTwinning and I think the most important dissemination is the one happening in our schools. That is the most powerful tool to spread the joy of eTwinning, by opening it to the entire community, as part of the school curriculum.

I teach in an eTwinning school and I have lots of new, young colleagues now so I try to involve them in projects by showcasing examples of good practices, challenges, solutions. All the teachers have a whatsapp group so everything I have to say can be posted there and we discuss also in the teachers' room because we spend most of our breaks together so we get to plan, exchange ideas, complain :) don't worry, we also try to find solutions ;) We have a Wakelet collection of good practices, including presentations students have delivered, so that helps as well. I love the idea of students as protagonists so I try to find opportunities for my students to present their work to our colleagues.

I have been an ETwinning Ambassador for a few days. :)

What does it mean to promote eTwinning? It means giving other colleagues and their students the experience of what it is like to work with other schools, with students from other countries, from hundreds or even thousands of kilometres away. I would like to give webinars, write articles, visit schools and give practical help to interested colleagues. Project work is always a great fun!
