The teaching context summarised
The children we teach are changing
The core values of education are going through a radical change as the knowledge society impacts on institutions and ways of instruction that date mainly to the 19th Century.
We (as teachers) are mostly still seen as conservative in our methods and our views about learning.

Today……
Examine the pedagogical thinking behind eTwinning
![Page 10: eTwinning: Pedagogical considerations](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052307/5583a4a4d8b42a03088b4ce1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3 Assumptions
The teacher is autonomous in deciding the focus of eTwinning work
The teacher is familiar with 2 pedagogical concepts– Inquiry based learning– Project based learning
Teacher does not work alone
![Page 11: eTwinning: Pedagogical considerations](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052307/5583a4a4d8b42a03088b4ce1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Inquiry-based instruction is……..
a pupil-centered and teacher-guided instructional approach that engages pupils in investigating real world questions that they choose within a broad thematic framework.
pupils acquire and analyse information, develop and support propositions, provide solutions, and design products that demonstrate their thinking and make their learning visible
![Page 12: eTwinning: Pedagogical considerations](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052307/5583a4a4d8b42a03088b4ce1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Project based learning
a dynamic approach to teaching in which pupils explore real-world problems and challenges.
With this type of active and engaged learning, pupils are inspired to obtain a deeper knowledge of the subjects they're studying
![Page 13: eTwinning: Pedagogical considerations](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052307/5583a4a4d8b42a03088b4ce1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3 minutes….discussion
What are the benefits to these approaches for the pupil?
![Page 14: eTwinning: Pedagogical considerations](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052307/5583a4a4d8b42a03088b4ce1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Benefits of this approach
Develops problem-solving, critical thinking skills in relation to subject content
Promotes the transfer of concepts to new problem questions
Teaches pupils how to learn and builds self-directed learning skills
Develops pupil ownership of their inquiry and enhances pupil interest in the subject matter

10 steps for success in PBL…..1. Start with a guided exploration of a topic as a whole class.
2. Proceed to put pupils into small groups to discuss an open-ended, debatable, contended issue.
3. Encourage pupils to ask personally relevant and socially significant questions.
4. Work in groups to achieve diversity of views.
5. Plan well, set goals, define outcomes.
6. Find or create information...look for patterns.
7. Instruction serves as a guide to help pupils meet their goals.
8. Create a tangible artifact that addresses the issue, answers questions, and makes learning visible and accountable.
9. Arrive at a conclusion...take a stand...take action.
10. Document, justify, and share conclusion with larger audience.

Questions to ask before starting…..What kind of partner school should it be?
· What age should the pupils in the partner class have?
· Project language?
· Subjects the project should be related to
· Concrete ideas and suggestions for the project
· Tools I’d like to use
· What is of special importance for an eTwinning partnership?
