Hi, I'm Cinzia Vignoli. I've been teaching for 39 years in primary school, but only in recent years I have come close to the digital teaching resources. I teach in the language and my passion is to stimulate the pupils to be creative and proponent. I graduated in Pedagogy and I graduated in Philosophy Research. This year I also attended training as an e-Twinner and participated in many online courses at the European Schoolnet Academy obtaining various attestations.

In my experience in primary school, I do not always choose to choose the students to work with, especially in those classes where, as has happened to me, there are some relational issues. You are likely to choose comrades and / or companions with whom you are in tune refusing who we do not like. This does not seem very educational to me. This possibility should be varied, allowing the choice of the boys sometimes, but in other cases the choice of the teacher.

it is not always easy to use these tools, especially for the way school time is built. In group work organized in open classes, with colleagues we have often created the final grids for evaluating the work done by the groups with the definition of the goals achieved.

In recent years I have often proposed the class activity group among parallel class pupils. I could see how the concepts displayed in the video by Professor Valente are real. In fact, I noticed how peer-review emerged during the activities and how this has also helped to improve interpersonal relationships. It remains, however, that, in some cases, the teacher's intervention was necessary to modify the group's training, where it was unbalanced (eg two passive students in a group join together making work difficult, or two pupils leaders hinder the development of the activity as each one wants to impose its idea) Observing these dynamics has led the teachers to balance the groups each time, thus also allowing self-evaluation of their didactic project.

In my primary school career I worked in various collaboration situations. I agree that some teachers are still not very confident with the digital world, but it is also true that others use these application tools skillfully. My recent experiences at the eTwinning platform have shown me that in recent times the ability of teachers to use new technologies is on the rise and this is in favor of an innovative school in the immediate future.

I think a fundamental benefit is both the human and professional growth of the teacher, but also the positive relapse of the boys who see the teachers collaborate, and this for them is a sign of respect and emulation core.

Sometimes I happened to work with skeptical teachers on the results of a good collaboration between teachers. I believe that collaborating, work becomes less tiring, more clear to users, and relaxing for teachers.
