MY DIGITAL WORLD IN CLASS
PROJECT: Mobility of Pupils
TARGET GROUP: Secondary & Upper Secondary School Students
This mobility of pupils activity aims to support students with ICT (Information and Communication Technology) based learning in their personal and professional development and school environment in line with priorities of the Erasmus Plus Program.
As it is very well known, students’ access to technology at school and home has increased astronomically over the last few years, which forces the pupils to use the ICT technology in their lessons intensely to enable their learning process, search and gather the information. Rapidly changing technology requires not only schools but also learners to integrate their learning methods with ICT tools. So, teachers are expected to practice their newly developed skills in teaching and the learners/pupils to develop their digital skills as well as their creative thinking and problem-solving skills.
As Anatolia Education, we establish a bridge between the host and sending scools to perform the programs to develop the 21st century skills of pupils related to 21st-century learning methods focusing on creative thinking with interactive and inspiring workshops in a friendly atmosphere

- Learn the sample portals being developed where learners can network and share information
including best practices.

Mentoring & Monitoring:
Before the mobility:
- Anatolia Education arranges all the practicalities for both host school and sending school,
revise the program with both parties and be sure everything will be well arranged in advance.
During the mobility:
- A professional trainer / mentor accompanies the group, mentor them about the content of the program and also monitor the progress of the pupils. The trainer/mentor prepares a group report and also personal report for each of the participants at the end of the activity. The reports are sent to both sending and hosting schools to evaluate the success of the program.
- A short evaluation form is applied at the end of the program to monitor the success of the activity.
- Certificate of Participation and Europass mobility Document are prepared to validate the mobility
After the mobility:
- Anatolia Education keeps the contact with both parties after the mobility and assist them whenever they are in need to put what they have gained into practice at schools or disseminate the activity at various platforms.
