The eTwinning webinar How to become an eTwinning School: Students as agents of change gave us the opportunity to share from our experience and encourage people to join eTwinning. We focused on the activities that students can manage in schools in order to promote European projects and activities and start changing people's perception and interests.

Adela P spoke about what it means to prepare for national competitions in which you present the eTwinning projects and the final results. She also spoke about the disesmination activities she took part on in our school , presenting teenagers with the benefits of European projects. 

Andy M spoke about what it means to handle social media channels and what responsabilities one has when choosing this task, adding that social media has a big impact and can lead to change. She also mentioned the partnership we created with other schools and how being present as a student to those meetings really helped motivate students more.

Anastasia G spoke about how her work in eTwinning and Erasmus projects covers some of the activities in the School Council, encouraging students to participate in European activities celebrating Europe day as well as eTwinning Day. She included the Be Active eTwinning project which offers students opportunities to work in national and multinational teams.

I am an eTwinning ambassador and an Erasmus AmbassaDOR and I think that we can make a bigger difference if we start involving our students in more aspects of the projects than simply doing tasks. Once they feel empowered they will find it easier to spring their wings, spreading their joy and knowledge to others.
