A session to Tunisian eTwinners to urge them to use some new web Tools

1. Plan Your Project
By eTwinning Ambassador: Faten Romdhani
CREFOC Nabeul- Tunisia

2. I- Idea of the Project
Start with the end in mind
[ I would like my pupils to collaborate / to connect with their
peers to create/ to solve / to have fun exploring a new topic/
issue/ ]
Bear in mind the 6 C’s 21st Century skills

3. 21st Century Skills

4. II-Partners in the project
Look for partners by posting in the Etwinning Live forum
One founder of the project may get more partners to work with
and then decide who could possibly be extra founders of the
project by planning the project together
The bigger the number of the partners, the merrier and the
more exciting is your experience … (especially if all the members
are active)

5. Create a detailed schedule of your project
It could be
Weekly, monthly , or every ( term / semester)
Inviting the partners to give feedback to the detailed
schedule would help all partners feel responsible & commit to the
schedule. Yet, no need to stress out, every partner has his own
pace of working . We should be patient and understanding.

6. Detailed Project Plan
You could have a detailed project plan beforehand or
collaborate with the partners to agree on the tasks to accomplish
& the deadlines
You could possibly use google doc to invite all the partners
edit the plan & add to it

7. Inform Teachers/ Partners
Informing partners by posting in the twinspace forum
Or by sending emails
Or by inviting them to edit a google doc
Or by posting updates in a facebook group

8. Post Regularly on the project journal
Being present there will certainly help all partners keep track of
where you are in the project & what are your future tasks

9. Encourage Student Communication
Whether inviting students to connect via Twinspace or
Facebook, make sure you teach / raise the awareness of your
students about digital citizenship rules and netiquette. It’s safer
to teach them how to swim before throwing them in the sea

10. Engage Students in the discovery of Web 2.0
Tools
Learners need to be familiar with some free web tools and
work collaboratively on a final outcome ( magazine, story, book,
blog, …)
