During the period from 2nd May to 6th May 2022, Educom+ was glad to carry out the ka1 course on: “Open, Online & Digital learning”. A team of eight competent, innovative and hard-working teachers from Școala Gimnazială Șura Mică, Romania, received training on the pedagogical principles of on-line education and emergent remote teaching, were taught how to use digital tools in an inclusive and engaging way for their students and learned how to design their own lessons using technology. We thank the Romanian team and we will be happy to host them again in another training course!
