I have had the problem is mentioned above, that students and parents not reading and responding to emails during the school timetable. Or even try to communicate with parents because of any problem their kids have... that's sometimes impossible!

Then we have the other situation, when you set some tasks to do... and you have several students with problems becuase they haven't received the homeworks...

I have had a couple of situations, in which, parents didn't speak English or Spanish and we have had to wait for a person to help us and because of that the communication was almost nothing.

At our school, students have normal paper textbooks and Chromebooks. Our English method has books and a digital environment.

We have digiboards and Apple TVs in all the classrooms. Teachers have laptops; no desktops are available any more.

There is a good wifi connection. Students leave their mobile phones at the entrance in small pockets.

My biggest success was the discovery of Learnbeat, a learning platform that supports our English method 'New Interface' for various high-school levels.

On the one hand we have the digital method 'New Interface' that you can use as a teacher and student; on the other hand you can add up all needed content in Learnbeat. Once I tried Learnbeat (during the pandemic), it became clear to me that I prefered my lessons planned in Learnbeat then follow the lessons directly through the digital method. Here it is why:

I can share a week planning and the lessons to the students, all on one page.
I can upload the lessons and students only have to klick on the lessons.
I can view progress and give feedback.
I can see statistics on how well a student/ class has performed.
I can add material again and again.
I can make my own tests.
I can open it from any device.
All in all, I see no disadvantages on using Learnbeat. I strongly recommend Learnbeat if the platform accept your digital method.

In most classrooms we have interactive whiteboards, but there are few computers. We have only one classroom with 20 computers for a total of 270 students. In the others there is nothing for the students. Sometimes they use their mobile phone but that is not something we want. I can work with a presentation and the students if they have the possibility to work from home.

My colleague and I are planning a new school to open in 2025. Each classroom will be equipped with an interactive screen, and all pupils and teachers will have a device. We'll be choosing the equipment over the next few months. I think we'll choose tablets for the pupils. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Graziella - Italy

grazifilippone — 2024-03-04 20:20:21 UTC

In my school, spread in four different buildings, we have smart boards in each classroom, also in Preschool classroom. We have available laptop and tablets in each building and a good internet connection. The most creative use is discovering the surprising use of internet with my young pupils of Preschool: they love searching the answers to their curiosities, to collaborate in eTwinning projects, creating on the digital board, facing the use of digital tools, following code paths on Code.org: the great satisfaction for me is involving young pupils in the creative use of technology in a meaningful way.

Eva, Greece

2024-03-04 20:45:44 UTC

In my school there are: a) personal and portable computers to support the administrative work of the teachers b) some tablets for student use (but not enough for all the students of a class) and a few laptops for use by the teachers in the context of their lesson and c) personal computers in two computer labs for teaching Computer Science.

What we achieved last year is to secure a wifi network for all classrooms and install new projectors in most of them. This year the Greek Ministry of Education provides interactive boards to schools.

An example of creative use of the school's digital infrastructure (computers, projectors, internet connection) is remote communication with institutions, parents and trainers to support the teachers' pedagogical work, to hold discussions and trainings.

Eva - Greece

2024-03-05 07:27:41 UTC

The digital infrastructure in the school consists of an internet connection and two computers, but they are old technology. The connection is supported by wifi, throughout the school. The school equipment is supported by teachers' tablets and laptops to promote the learning process. This equipment, is widely used for the implementation of etwinning projects, for communication with partner schools.

taskin80 — 2024-03-05 09:44:11 UTC

We have smart boards and internet in every classroom however they cannot bring their mobiles. If you are well prepared, you can handle all your plan through smart board. However it is difficult for collaborative activities. Computer labs are also avaliable but they are generally for IT classes.

I send some tasks to my students and they collaborate at home. that is my solution

Helena, Croatia

mailveronikagolden — 2024-03-05 12:04:47 UTC

In every classroom is smartboard connected to the computer and internet. In my classroom each pupil has iPad (we got the set of 26 iPads from so national project). There are another 5 sets of iPads available for teachers to take them in their lessons. We have 3 computer labs, they are generally for IT and language classes. At our school is WiFi for school infrastructutre.

PCampos, Portugal

2024-03-05 12:24:14 UTC

At my school there is a local network acessible to all PCs. In each classroom there is a PC connected to the internet, and a video projector. There are 3 sets of tablets available for students use. In 2 classroom we have a smartboard.

The Portuguese state has an ongoing program in which each student has free access to a technological kit (laptop, hotspot and headphones) on loan for as long as they attend public school. At my school, we encourage families to apply for this loan and make use of these resources in the school context. There has been significant take-up, especially when the students experience more engaging and active learning.

One way I´ve used basic digital infrastructure, that for some can be considered original, was to engage students in a 5 minute meditation experience.

Cora Buil, Spain

2024-03-05 16:06:32 UTC

In my school students from 4th Primary school (8year old) till they finish, 2nd of bachiller (17 years old) use chromebooks. Every student has one and they are responsible of how they use it, what and when they use it and to have it in good condition. When it is given to them, the teachers state the rules clearly to them and these are reminded to them many times along their school years.

Moreover, in every classroom of the school (beginning in Infant Education) there is a project, smartboard and wifi.

I always use the smartboard to project my teaching materials, view videos, to show the projects done by my students when they have to do oral presentations or to play games like kahoot or blooket.

Catia Santini, Italy

2024-03-05 16:38:57 UTC

My school as well as most of Italian Schools is currently underging to a dramatic change in the field of School level infrastructures , thanks to the PNRR Funds (Scuola 4.0) So the 65% of classes are going to be fully equipped with laptops and many other digital tools. The internet connection has been improved , and it will be possible to promote digial learning of a regular basis. The limits as far as I am concerned are : lack of digital competences of teacher , lack of expertise in innovative methodologies , Students low level of digital expertise ( I am nt referring to social media management). That's why the real challenge in on traning and learning communities

Panayiota, Cyprus

2024-03-05 20:11:48 UTC

In all classrooms we have an interactive whiteboard, with a projector and an old PC. Additionally, we have a set of 20 tablets, for sharing, so if we want students to use them during the lesson, we have to carry them in the classroom. Ethernet and wi-fi is available, but if we need it for a class, we have to enable it, with a hot spot. Schools are expecting additional laptops and other equipment to boost technology infrastructure of every school.

Ioanna Kotsioli, Athens -Greece

Khatuna Putkaradze, Georgia

khatunaputkaradze1 — 2024-03-06 06:40:36 UTC

My school's digital infrastructure looks like this:

Online Assessment Tools**: Teachers use online assessment platforms such as Kahoot, Quizizz or Google Forms to create and administer quizzes, tests and surveys, giving students instant feedback.

Digital classroom resources: The school provides access to a wide range of digital resources such as e-books, educational videos and interactive simulations by subscribing to platforms such as Khan Academy, Discovery Education or YouTube Edu.

Communication tools: Teachers communicate with students and parents through email, messaging apps, e-journals, and video conferencing platforms such as Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

The biggest success story regarding school digital infrastructure is the successful transition to distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The school quickly adapted to the challenges of closing physical classrooms, using its digital infrastructure to deliver online learning, facilitate communication between teachers, students and parents and maintain continuity of learning. I created a scientific article about this experience.

One creative use of even basic digital infrastructure has been to take virtual field trips using Google Earth. Teachers have used the tool to take students on virtual tours of historical landmarks, natural wonders, and cultural sites around the world, enriching their learning experiences and broadening their perspectives without leaving the classroom. This not only enhanced engagement but also fostered curiosity and exploration among students.

Žaklina, Croatia

zaklinafilipemaaleks — 2024-03-06 10:33:35 UTC

The digital infrastructure at the school is satisfactory. We have a strong network that is only available to teachers and, if necessary, to students. We are equipped with smart boards, each teacher has his own laptop, and students have tablets that they can use as needed. This year, we made a decision to ban the use of mobile devices in school, so that students can no longer access certain tasks online via mobile devices. For the needs of IT classes, we have classrooms with computers. Each classroom has a projector. We have a stem unit for students, mboots, digital sound processing equipment (Carnet's donation)

Alfredo Rivero, Spain

2024-03-06 18:21:38 UTC

Our school's digital infrastructure is currently facing several challenges, with outdated digital whiteboards, a lack of personal computers for teachers, antiquated projectors, no digital screens, and limited computers for students in need. Despite assurances that Next Generation EU funds will address these issues, improvements have been slow. Nevertheless, we've creatively utilized our existing resources to enhance learning. A notable success was using old digital whiteboards and projectors for interactive lessons and virtual field trips, providing immersive educational experiences. This approach has helped engage students and somewhat compensated for the lack of modern digital tools.

claudia_murelli — 2024-03-07 06:48:05 UTC

The digital infrastructure of my Institute is expanding thanks to participation in the PNRR ministerial fund tenders. There is a demand for fast network cabling in all 3 grade levels. In my school there are only 2 Lims positioned inside the non-touch screen structure. The 5 classrooms have one computer assigned for use. In the digital classroom, iPads and digital tools can be used for STE(A)M experiential activities: blue bot, ozobot. Informing the Principal, I brought a television connected to the iPad to school to allow the children to interact in collaborative activities with European partners. They should install LIMm in all sections soon. Personally I purchased the Easy view, We.do2.0, OSMO applications to implement experiential activities in eTwinning

marialorenza_campanella5 — 2024-03-07 21:55:06 UTC

My school is fairly digitally well equipped. In each classroom there is a smartboard and a laptop. Internet connection works well in all the classrooms even if the school is made up of two buildings. We have four laboratory with about 20 desktop computers and an interactive whiteboard. Moreover, in the Physics laboratory there are 12 laptops and a 3D printer. We have also a Robotics laboratory students use and like very much. I teach English but I like technology during the Pandemic we worked to a dossier about our cultural Heritage and the students created a robot to take photos and monitoring the most important historical site of our city.

We have Internet connection.

M.G., France

2024-03-08 08:51:43 UTC

Each high school student receives a region-funded computer in November, enabling access to online resources and facilitating individual work on a digital device during class.

However, there are some downsides: not all teachers utilize it, and many students forget to bring it to class, using it solely for leisure. Additionally, technical difficulties, such as issues with wifi connectivity, broken equipment, and challenges faced by computer illiterate students, pose further obstacles.

As this initiative is still in its infancy, I hope that practices will evolve to maximize the potential of this valuable (albeit expensive) tool.

Due to this, the rest of the infrastructure is relatively basic: each room is equipped with one teacher computer and a projector, and there is one computer room with about twenty-five computers available for the whole shool.

Arnaud Perrier, France

2024-03-08 09:12:55 UTC

"We have a computer room that was equipped six or seven years ago. The computers were at their peak. Today, the updates are obsolete and the Town Hall no longer has anyone to maintain them. So I do all the updates myself, using open source software. It's pretty sad now that we've finally got fibre optics. But is it still my greatest success? However, each class is generally equipped with a video projector. Some teachers are better at using new technologies than others and are able to use them more creatively. "

In my school there is a smartboard and a laptop in each classroom.Internet connection is quite weak, and it depends on the area of the school, you work in. There are six labs with about 20 desktops with computers and there is an interactive whiteboard in each lab. We have also robotics tools, students can use. I teach English and I use technology such as digital book, whiteboard, computer,laptop etc.I have implemented various learning objects with my students,according to their attitudes.

In my school there are multimedia whiteboards in each classroom and two ICT laboratories equipped with new generation laptops and a tourist reception laboratory with multimedia whiteboards and laptops for the simulation of professional activities. The cooking and sensorial analysis laboratories are also equipped with an interactive whiteboard for the advantage of being able to share laboratory activities with foreign partners. The advantage is to make the lesson more motivating and interactive. The disadvantage is linked to connection problems and the difficulty of some teachers in using digital technology

In my school internet access is excellent. The school is provided with computers and projectors which are present in every classroom. Also, we have a smartboard. These infrastructures have a great impact on students' performances in general. They are usually more engaged and interested when audio and video resources are implemented. Also, some topics which are abstract and distant from real-life, especially in science can be presented in an effective way

Our school has evolved its digital infrastructure to align with the changing educational landscape. We have a robust network supporting high-speed internet access throughout all building. Some classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboards, and all teachers and students have access to laptops (or tablets) for instructional purposes.

One notable success story is the implementation of a cloud-based learning management system. This platform has streamlined communication, assignment submission, and grading processes, enhancing overall efficiency. It has significantly contributed to a more organized and collaborative learning environment.

In terms of creativity with basic digital infrastructure, we've leveraged video conferencing tools for virtual field trips (we will have one next week, to Lisbon Zoo) Despite physical constraints, students had the opportunity to explore museums, historical sites, and interact with experts, broadening their perspectives and enriching the curriculum.

Our commitment to innovation in digital education remains strong as we continue to explore ways to leverage technology for enhanced teaching and learning experiences.

In my school there are digital whiteboards in each classroom and one ICT laboratory. . The advantages are to make the lesson more interesting, motivating, and interactive. The disadvantages are linked to connection problems and the difficulty of some teachers in using digital technology and the inability of some colleagues that don't like the digital innovation.

My school has a well-equipped digital infrastructure. There are smartboards in each classroom. There is school wifi available always, however according to esafety policies, students and staff cannot access to websites which are regarded as not relevant to education. There are also 2 desktop computers and a printer in teachers’ room. Students can bring their tablets or laptops to school if they like. Students can use mobile phones only if they are necesary for a course activity, project or presentation during a lesson or an extracurricular activity and except this they need to put their mobile phones to phone cabinets in the first lesson and take back in the last lesson.

About my School

georgiamat — 2024-03-10 06:05:29 UTC

Despite being in a seaside village, my school is really well equipped. It has an ICT room with 7 computers and a projector. Every classroom is equipped with a desktop computer and a projector and we also have about 12 tablets. There is Internet connection (both Wi-Fi and with ethernet). Recently we have had 3 smartboards installed!

I am trying to use the technical infrastructure as much as possible. Students love it when we have to play online games to assess their knowledge!

hanan_housny — 2024-03-10 06:47:03 UTC

My School is equipped with a moderate level of digital infrastructure. There are two interactive whiteboards in the computer labs, but there are no interactive whiteboards in every classroom. There are also two computer labs containing 30 PC computers connected to the Internet, but most of the time the Internet network is weak, I created "the code club" at school to teach mt students how to code with Python, and we used our computer lab and the school internet and it goes well.

My school is located in a small town. We have 1 laptops and 1 projector in every classroom. Some of the classrooms have IQ boards thanks to a project we won. We have internet connection but it is not always reliable. So I have my laptop all the time with me and plug it in when necessary.

Students also have access to an ICT lab with up-to-date computers and the library has a digital display for interactive activities.

The majority of the students have smart phones we can use in class for certain activities - online games or having a test in Google forms, but I consider it is not enough.

The school where I work is equipped as follows:
- internet
- laptops and video projectors in all classes
- tablets for all students
- interactive whiteboard
Since I work with mentally challenged students, technology has helped me a lot. These students need concrete materials, to explore and then the large-scale projection on the blackboard helps them to observe the characteristics of some objects/beings.
All the presentations in the methodical commissions are made with the help of applications, making videos, interactive presentations, we use QR codes for panels, there is no space for many photos, we search for materials in real time.

My school is part of a very large institute made up of no less than three different schools with important and varied courses: nautical, commercial, tourism and vocational (fashion, electronics and optics). Unfortunately, until recently, the electronic equipment available was very limited and concentrated in a few addresses. Thanks to the PNRR funds, New Generation Labs, the situation is changing rapidly and new equipment such as digital boards, 3D printers and new NPC stations will soon be available. All this will start a process of improved digitisation, which is absolutely essential and necessary. However, there is still a lack of training for teachers, who need specific, careful and functional training on these tools and specific software.

Teresa, Spain

2024-03-11 18:17:07 UTC

I would say that in my school the infrastructure is not the most adequate. In each classroom we have a computer, a projector and some speakers, although the equipment is quite outdated... In some classrooms there are digital whiteboards, practically all of which are no longer in use, and we have two mobile trolleys with 24 laptops each for the pupils.

This is what we use the most lately, but we have to be very careful that the batteries are charged and manage their use well so that they arrive charged in the late hours of the morning.

There are also some loan tablets for the students.

Even so, we have some problems when it comes to installing programmes and trying out new applications...

Our internet connection usually works well, although when everyone is working at the same time it can be very slow.

Our school has interactive whiteboards in all classrooms, equipped with video projectors and laptops. In addition, we have two laboratories, one for ICT and the other for computer science, equipped with computers for each student. We also have tablets for all nearly 500 students that they use in class when they need it. Our biggest success story in terms of school digital infrastructure is winning funding through a PNRR project to equip the school with a SmartLab.

uhrovic — 2024-03-12 18:47:30 UTC

In my school we have a computer and a projector in every classroom, but some of them are too slow and too old to use them in the lesson. Students can use only their mobiles and their data, because we don't have wi-fi connections, the network collapses everytime. So instead of whiteboards and computers, better is to use classical methods. But sometimes I do my best to involve digital technologies into lessons with a B plan. We have computer labs, but mostly for technical subjects and some of them with a limited amount of working computers, less than students in group. It is very hard to work digitally here. But the headmaster tries to solve these problems. We hope in the future.

In our school we use projectors in every class and also we have smartboards in a few classes too. They certainly add variety to the lesson and makes it more appealling to the students. However , there is a need to improve the digital infrastructure in terms of internet access and have more devices so that students can use them seperately or in small groups (e.g. laptops , tablets)

Svetlana Yakiviuk, Kherson/UKRAINE

yakiviuksvitlana — 2024-03-14 09:08:12 UTC

In my school almost every classroom had a projector and a laptop. Also there are 2 laboratories for computer science teacher, 2 laboratories fully completed by laptops, 2 smartboards, multifunctional printers. There were 5 smartboards at least. Internet connection was good. But it was before the war that started on 24.02.2022 in Ukraine. Kherson had been occupied till 11.11.2023. Russian troops stoled all laptops, computers when they left the city.

Now Kherson is bombing every day (and night). Most of schools are damaged or were destroyed.

During 2 years and now we have been teaching on remote mode. Some students have only mobile phones. Sometimes, because of bombing Internet connection is very bad or it's nor electrosity. That's why it's difficult to say about my school's digital infrastructure.

But different fonds (e.x. UNICEF) are ready to help our Ukrainia schools and provide our students and teachers with tablets and laptops.

Ridvan, Van/ Turkey

2024-03-14 10:48:29 UTC

In our school, the absence of a computer workshop deprives students of the opportunity to benefit from technological advancements, leaving them at a disadvantage in today's digital age. Without access to computers and related tools, students are unable to develop essential digital literacy skills or explore the vast resources available online for learning and research. This limitation not only hinders their academic progress but also impedes their ability to adapt to an increasingly technology-driven society. As other schools embrace digital learning environments and equip their students with the necessary technological skills, our students are left behind, unable to compete on an equal footing. The absence of a computer workshop is not just a logistical issue; it's a barrier to our students' future success and opportunities in an ever-evolving digital world.

Milena

My school's situation is pretty sad. There are only a few classrooms equipped with an interactive board and a projector. This is pretty bad especially because we do not have any coursebooks and it's a little bit funny when the teacher tries to show the video from her lap top to a whole class of 24 students. There's one classroom well equipped for the ICT classes and one with 20 PCs for all the rest of the classes. There are lap tops for some of the teachers. The technical support is almost non-existent. However, the WI-FI is pretty great.

As an IT Coordinator, the school and I have made a big effort to improve the digital infrastructure because our government didn't provide us with many computers or other digital items. Over the last ten years, we have built three ICT classrooms, each equipped with a computer with Ethernet and a projector. The internet connection is generally good. We have installed WiFi in almost every area of the institute, including the classrooms, enabling teachers and students to work efficiently on their laptops.

Our government has provided us with Microsoft accounts. It is expected that in the near future, they will provide WiFi for all students.

Naomi, Slovakia

englishwithnaomit — 2024-03-19 17:18:04 UTC

In our school we have fast wifi, that is mostly dependable.

We have one good laptop for two teachers, so I use my personal mobile phone in many situations.

We have 2 interactive whiteboards, but neither one is functional in an interactive way. We just use them to project images from the laptop.

The students all have tablets that the government supplied, but they keep them at home. They bring them in on the days that we have IT lessons.

We have 2 student pcs and 4 student tablets for 20 students.

If we had another teacher laptop and functioning interactive whiteboards, I would be satisfied.

I can do a lot with good wifi and my phone. :)

kate_sideri — 2024-03-20 10:50:19 UTC

My school's digital infrastructure seems to have some limitations, but also potential for creativity and success. Here's a breakdown of your questions:

Description of Digital Infrastructure:
- Internet Connection: While not strong and not available everywhere, having internet access is still valuable.
- Computer Lab: Although not always easily accessible to all teachers, having a dedicated computer lab is an asset.
- Interactive Whiteboard and Projectors: The interactive whiteboard with a table projector and portable projector adds an interactive dimension to teaching.
- Laptops: Having ample laptops provides flexibility in utilizing digital resources.
Specific Examples:
- Usage in eTwinning Projects: The success in eTwinning projects showcases effective utilization of available digital resources despite limitations. For example, using laptops for research, collaborative work, and communication with project partners, and making the most of the interactive whiteboard during presentations were our best moments..
Biggest Success Story:
- eTwinning Project Awards: Winning quality labels in both national and European eTwinning projects demonstrates the effectiveness of our school's digital infrastructure in fostering collaboration, creativity, and project-based learning.
Creative Use of Digital Infrastructure:
- eTwinning Projects: Leveraging the available digital infrastructure creatively to participate in eTwinning projects highlights the resourcefulness of our school. Despite challenges such as limited internet access and accessibility to the computer lab, the school managed to excel in collaborative projects, showcasing the innovative use of laptops, interactive whiteboard, and projectors.

Despite the limitations, our school has been able to achieve notable success through creativity, collaboration, and effective utilization of available digital resources, highlighting the resilience and ingenuity of our school community.

Zuzana, Slovakia

zuzana_peternai — 2024-03-20 12:31:51 UTC

How does your school's digital infrastructure look like?
We have a stable cable internet access in every classroom and offices, and a wifi in the building accessable to students and teachers alike. There is a white board and projector with a laptop in every classroom, in 2 out of 4 it is interactive. We have three 3D printers, 20 tablets, 20 sets of Micro:bits, Lego Mindstorm for students. Teachers just last December received a laptop, students have they own smartphones but the state provided them with funds to buy laptops as well (some of them carry it to school). Internally, we use a system called ASc Agenda for administration and evidence of everything connected with teaching and students. I think it is satisfactory, although I see an area for development: the software part is not taken care of, there is no server, the IT teacher/system administrator does not work in our school full time, some of the programmes are not available due to finances (e.g. padlet, Kahoot, Microsoft Teams, etc.)
Can you share some specific examples?
I think I answered it above :)
What is currently your biggest success story regarding your school’s digital infrastructure?
Surprisingly it is not for using it but restricting it. After having introduced a Day without mobiles and having great feedback from students. they themselves asked the management to introduce it on a weekly basis. Even though digital infrastructure is available, they feel it is just a tool and there are more important things to do.
What was the most creative way you’ve used even basic digital infrastructure?
There were several activities included in eTwinning projects. E.g. students created QR codes which hid short content of famous books, they stuck them all around the school, the others had to find them, read and guess the author and title. It was fun :)

They certainly add variety to the lesson and makes it more appealling to the students. The integration of digital infrastructure in traditional education is a transformative process. It has the potential to make learning more engaging, personalized, and effective. While challenges exist, with the right strategies and resources, we can successfully navigate this digital shift.

María Manso, Spain

2024-03-22 09:58:26 UTC

In my school we have interactive whiteboards in every class. We use them in every lesson.

Also we have 24 laptops for all the primary school, so what we do is book the laptops for the lesson we need them, sometimes we just pick 5 laptops for all the class, because all students work in groups, so we take a computer per group (to look for information, to create a canva, to work in Google Classroom...).

Also we have a room with 25 computers, we can go to this room also after we book it.

The wifi it´s good.

Every teacher has also a computer in the classroom.

cpopovici12 — 2024-03-22 15:58:28 UTC

There are only two fixed video projectors in the secondary school classrooms. For the primary school, we have a video projector at our disposal, which we use where it is most needed. The students have several tablets at their disposal. In the happiest cases, they have a personal smartphone at their disposal. However, we managed to do wonders when we decided that we are capable of breaking down barriers related to endowment. A success story? I leave the link here for you to discover for yourself:

Ιn my kindergarten we have access to wifi, laptops, pc and projectors. What really enjoyed my students was when they lay on the floor and we projected space and the solar system onto the ceiling.

At my school, our digital infrastructure consists of a robust network that covers the entire campus, including classrooms, offices, and outdoor areas. We have high-speed internet connectivity, secure wireless access points, and dedicated servers for storage and data management.

teopavlidis — 2024-03-23 10:14:07 UTC

One specific example of our digital infrastructure is our online learning management system, which allows teachers to create and deliver virtual classrooms, post assignments, and communicate with students. This platform has been especially useful during the COVID-19 pandemic when in-person classes were not possible.

Our biggest success story regarding our school's digital infrastructure is the implementation of a 1:1 device program, where every student is provided with a laptop or tablet for use in the classroom and at home. This initiative has greatly improved student engagement, collaboration, and access to digital resources.

One of the most creative ways we have used even basic digital infrastructure is through virtual field trips. Using tools like Google Earth and virtual reality headsets, we have taken students on immersive journeys to historical landmarks, scientific research centers, and cultural sites around the world. This has allowed students to experience places they may not have had the opportunity to visit in person, enhancing their learning and expanding their horizons.

At my school digital infrastructure is designed to integrate technology into every aspect of learning and administrative processes. The network infrastructure comprises high-speed internet connectivity, Wi-Fi access points in every classroom and robust servers to support various digital platforms such as the online register, which facilitates online assignments, discussions and resource sharing, and three computer labs. Additionally we have implemented interactive whiteboards, digital projectors and a vast array of educational software to enhance teaching and learning experiences. One of our biggest success stories involves the participation of the entire school community to a meeting with a marshal of the carabinieri that was being held in the auditorium. All the students attended the meeting in their classes through the IWB. They were able to listen to the speeches and interact by asking questions. Moreover, a creative use of our basic digital infrastructure was during the implementation of an eTwinning project.

Carmen, Germany

2024-03-25 19:33:14 UTC

At our school, we've upgraded our digital tools to improve learning and teamwork. In class, we use digital boards to make lessons more engaging and interactive. We have a few laptops available for students, but there's a limit to ensure fair use. Teachers can borrow laptops as needed, and we've sorted out who gets them when.

We've set up special rooms with computers, projectors, and Smart Boards to aid teaching. Plus, every teacher gets a Surface tablet to plan lessons and teach more effectively.

We understand it's tough to access expensive programs. We mostly rely on free tools, even if they're not the fanciest. But we're lucky to have full internet access for both teachers and students. It helps us find cool stuff to learn and improves our lessons.

Through Eba , a teacher can use ready made activities, tests, or upload his/her own activity and every teacher and students has the access to it with password. So it is safe and has rich resources. You can also use the platform for homework and follow the students there.

Our library has a digital whiteboard and the school counts with two computer rooms with 20 computers each. This year we have added 3 trolleys with 25 computers each. These trolleys are placed in different floors and teachers can book them for their lessons.

There is Internet and a powerful Wi-Fi connection in the school.

Despite all these resources, 2 groups of students in each level carry their own devices to the school. (A personal chromebook).

In my school there is a smartboard and a laptop in each classroom.Internet connection is quite weak, and it depends on the area of the school. There is one lab with about 20 desktops with computers and there is an interactive whiteboard in each lab. I teach English and I use technology such as digital book, whiteboard, computer,laptop etc.I have implemented various learning objects with my students,according to their attitudes. I love to be updated and I suggest new tools to my students .

As we are VET school in electrotechnical area, we are quite equipped with laptops, computers, projectors, and many other digital devices. We have also audio and video equipment, as we have multimedia department in our field of education. Our students can make films, as we have video professional video cameras, but, also, they can mix the sounds as we have audio equipment for that kind of work.

I teach web design and web programming and my personal success, in my opinion, is creation of encouraging environment for my students where they can show their creativity in making great context and layouts inside their web pages (meaningful, tailored pages) dedicated to all their peers from eTwinning projects.

The most creative way of using digital infrastructure in my school, in my opinion was painting walls according to students' works with the help of projector. Students made some infographics, we projected them to walls of our Multimedia lab and they draw lines according to projection on the wall, then they colored it.

We have smart boards and wi-fi in our classrooms. Students and teachers can use activities and resources by logging in with their passwords on the "EBA" education platform affiliated with the Ministry of National Education.

Unfortunately I can not write here that each classroom is supported and provides with smartboard, computers and projectors. That is a pity that we havent such kinds of accommodations. But we have inet access at school ,anyway we make progress during our classes. I bought projector and we have wthite board so we can watch and work online. Students bring their smartfhones,those who dont have they can share and work together.

In our school we use projectors in every classroom and we also have laptops, our problem for the last few months is the stability of the internet.

Reflection Break

My school’s digital infrastructure has steadily evolved over the years, becoming more robust and integrated with our teaching and administrative practices. We have a reliable internet connection throughout the campus, and all classrooms are equipped with interactive projectors or smartboards, which are regularly used during lessons. Each teacher has access to a school-issued laptop, and students use Chromebooks in the classroom, especially for research, collaborative projects, and assessments.

Specific Examples:

We use Google Workspace for Education, which includes Google Classroom, Docs, Slides, and Forms. This has transformed the way we assign, collect, and provide feedback on student work.
Zoom and Google Meet are used for virtual parent-teacher conferences and professional development sessions.
The school library is now partially digitized, and students can access e-books and online journals through our learning management system.
Padlet and Kahoot! are regularly integrated into lessons to increase engagement and formative assessment.

Biggest Success Story:
Our biggest success has been the seamless transition to blended learning. During periods of remote or hybrid learning, we were able to maintain instructional continuity. Teachers quickly adapted to Google Classroom, and students became more independent and tech-savvy. As a result, even now that we are back in person, we continue to use digital platforms for homework, flipped classroom content, and extra practice. The digital mindset among both staff and students has become a lasting strength.

Most Creative Use of Basic Infrastructure:
One of the most creative ways I’ve used basic digital tools was during a history unit where students created “virtual museums.” Using just Google Slides and embedded YouTube links, they curated exhibits on different historical periods. Each “room” in the museum had clickable objects leading to student-created videos, interactive timelines, or narrated presentations. It was a fun, immersive way to assess their understanding and creativity using tools already familiar to them.
