Comenius and eTwinning

You can use eTwinning to develop your School Partnership application prior to the deadline, and deliver the project once it is up and running

A perfect match!
Comenius gives a structured funding framework for school partnerships whilst eTwinning is a flexible, easy to use tool for developing ICT communication. Good communication is critical to the success of your Comenius project.

Why not use etwinning to prepare for the next Comenius deadline?
By registering your new or existing Comenius partners on the eTwinning portal, you will have access to a communication and collaboration tool (The Twinspace) on which to develop your Comenius application prior to the deadline.

Once you have a Comenius project up and running you can make use of eTwinning throughout the entire project cycle
eTwinning is an ideal tool for project management. eTwinning provides a safe controlled working environment for both students and staff. There is even the option of making part of this environment a public space. This means that you will be able to share your project outcomes with a wider community of teachers and pupils from across Europe.

If you are new to eTwinning and would like to get involved, then register your school and look for partners on the eTwinning portal www.etwinning.net. Once you have registered a partner or partners, you can access a wealth of online tools and resources to enable you to work together on a variety of themes.
