We did a roundtable presentation of work done so far. The participants told about their experiences with adaptations of the manuals. All participants presented their work on the adaptations on the manuals Still to be adapted is the e-tandem method manual, and we have gained two new participating teachers from MCAST Joseph and Tania-Jo who will now be taking part in the project and will take care of the manual and the new deadline list M. Mikel Balta and Cecilia Leboeuf informed the teams of project status and answered questions regarding project management and additional financial issues.
We presented the ideas behind the Workshop model and multiplier events, with examples from previous projects. (Cecilia Leboeuf) Workshop ideas were discussed in groups and the ideas on how to run a successful workshop were agreed upon. We especially discussed the TBL workshop and problems arising due to a possible lack of background knowledge on the history of the evolution of TBL and that is was easy to confuse TBL with other methods. Sandra sent all partners a copy of the papers describing TBL and adjustment to the manual will be made according to these.
The teams did a walkthrough of the feedback system peer-reviewing (Cecilia Leboeuf) all teams must: Use the teacher evaluation sheets from the dropbox folder Use the student evaluation sheets from the dropbox folder Upload evaluations to the dropbox folder, everytime you have piloted or done a course. Evaluation is used to further adapt, and also to document the number of participants and what they thought of the experience
There was a presentation of the work placement guide, and the Slovenian team will have a lot of work in adapting it a lot of this is out of date (Cecilia Leboeuf)
