Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it
The keynote speaker Robert O’Dowd will emphasise the need to prioritise telecollaboration at policy level. Representatives from emerging Technological University in Letterkenny, Sligo and Galway will explore ways of embedding telecollaboration into programmes and create learning opportunities for ‘internationalisation at home’.
Representatives from the Post-Primary Languages Ireland will describe the Languages Connect strategy and how they are supporting teachers to embrace virtual exchange. Finally, best practice models of telecollaboration will be shared by third level practitioners and E-twinning ambassadors at second level.
