    ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS:

     62 students answered the survey, 60% being this their first etwinning project.

    Re: step 3: Most activities have been rated 3 to 5, in a scale of 0-5, being the students' political speeches and the convention the highest rated. They praised the good organization of the project and the opportunity to being able to learn about other cultures and countries while working in collaboration with students of their own age from other countries. A few found some activities a bit foring while most of them found them enjoyable and important, and feel they have improved their competences.

    Re: whole project: Drawn from the responses, we can say all the objectives have been met. Students liked the speeches, food waste and working in an international environment, the most.  Dealing with the analysis of political speeches has been the toughtest part, although they all think they have learn a lot in a different way. How can the project be improved? They would have liked t in more videoconferences, carry out the action plans (impossible due to covid restrictions in schools) and more interactive activities.

    All in all, they have had fun and learn a lot with the project.

    ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS:

    The survey was answered by the 10 participating teachers, half of the completely beginner or with little experience in etwinning. The most experienced teachers have been mentors all along the project.

    Step 3 activities were rated high, even though being challenging and difficult for some students, as they had to deal with political speeches, analysis and writing and delivering their own speeches. The most outstanding points being the improvement in students' linguistic competences and their involvement in democratic participation and critical thinking.

    Regarding the whole project, teachers feel all objectives have been achieved, and value collaboration, the topics dealt and students' independent learning. Even though the COVID pandemic have not made things easy, with all the restrictions and 2 of the schools being in lockdown for all or almost all the project: it was difficult to motivate students and to carry out some of the tasks.

    The impact on students is high: they have learnt about climate change, sharing ideals, public speaking, politics, to raise awareness, among other important topics.

    The impact on teachers has been high too: they have been able to share experiences and good practices, have improved their digital skills, group dynamics and new teaching methods.

    Things that could be improved: the work in transnational groups, which was difficult due to the worldwide situiation wih the pandemic.

    All in all, the partnership won't end here for sure, as all teachers are open to new projects, either etwinning and erasmus in the future.
