The initial assessment phase is a key principle for the eTwinning project, playing a central role in encouraging a sense of responsibility in all participants, including children, teachers and parents. It assesses the initial perceptions, expectations and understanding of participants, facilitating better alignment of goals and tailoring subsequent activities to the group's collective needs and interests. Specifically, it provides students with the opportunity to express their thoughts and play an active role in their learning journey. For educators, the initial assessment phase offers valuable insights into students' interests and learning styles, enabling them to tailor instructional approaches to meet individual needs. Finally, the involvement of parents from the start of the project to its completion creates a collaborative partnership between school and home, fostering a shared responsibility for the educational journey. https://school-education.ec.europa.eu/en/etwinning...
