Snapshots of eTwinning ite in Italian universities (a.y. 2021-22): University of Bergamo

More than a decade ago, the National Support Organisations (nso), began to promote eTwinning in Initial Teacher Education (ite) in Europe. Since then, student teachers and teachers have been able to register in eTwinning and carry out multidisciplinary, international learning projects that are then implemented
together with pupils under the guidance of teacher educators. Through eTwinning, student teachers can learn essential future skills, project planning and guidance, international interaction, teamwork, and an inclusive teaching approach. With these skills, they will be better equipped to work in international teaching, education, and research networks. Several hundred ite institutions and teacher educators as well as
thousands of student teachers have already been taking part. The contribution reflects the experience with eTwinning at the University of Bergamo, Dep. of Human and Social Sciences.
