At the end of every meeting we all evaluated what went well and what could be improved.  It is clear in those evaluations that all the countries did a very well job organizing the event.  However, we all realize that cultural or school differences may make us think about some topics.  For example, some countries may be more relaxed about timing and others are more strict about being on time.  In these meetings we were able to find out many cultural differences among us and that is in fact something that enriches us.  We may think those are negative things, but if we think about it each country has a history and a way of living their lives.  This project has given us a great opportunity to learn not only about our educational systems but how we have different ways of living our lives.  We are a great team with participants from different parts of Europe: North, Central, South, East, Mediterranean, Scandinavian, from an island... or even within our countries we may be from the North in our own country that may be different from the people from the South of the same country... Anyway, we have all learnt that we may be different, but that we can all work perfectly on the same topic, because above all, we are all teachers willing to take a step forward in order to enrich our students' lives and make them part of this huge vast continent called Europe.

Sirkku, the Finnish coordinator, had the task to compile and put together all our different points of views about our meetings.  

Besides, she had the task of evaluating our intellectual product/outcome.  She has analyze all the data, didactic units, our own views, the work done by our teachers and students and has created this document.
