International meetings and LTT

Due to the coronavirus, the planned final LTT (learning and teaching training) in Bergen was canceled in April 2020. As an alternative for the project partners, a digital LTT was organized using Teams as a communication platform. We created a Padlet-presentation where we published the mobile learning case studies (student activities linked to the iPac model, the fundamental framework of the project) in which we have worked since the Transnational Meeting of Valencia in November 2019.

The partners were not able to travel to Bergen as planned and we missed the four days with different activities we had planned, such as the in-service training workshop for project participants. However, as an alternative, the digital session, on June 19, worked well as the final summit of the three-year Moltam project.
