In breve
eTwinning is the largest European teacher community aimed at fostering collaboration between teachers and schools. It is an international digital extended learning environment and a professional community of teachers based on exchange and peer learning. How does eTwinning interact with teachers’ professional development in Italy and what are its repercussions? This book – intended for teachers, trainers, school leaders, researchers, and policy makers – reaps the fruits of about five years of studies conducted on this topic by the eTwinning Italian National Support Organisation and Indire Ricerca in collaboration with the University of Florence. The overall cultural contribution presented in this volume helps support the thesis that eTwinning is also teacher training as well as a lever for school innovation. The richness of the eTwinning experience has an impact on the teaching, organisational and professional spheres of the teachers in the community. The various chapters contribute to deepening and providing evidence of this thesis, from multiple perspectives.
