Designing Meaningful Erasmus+ Mobilities: From Vision to Collaborative Impact

Description

This interactive course helps teachers plan purposeful and interconnected student mobilities that align with their school’s Erasmus+ accreditation goals and Quality Standards. Instead of isolated exchanges, participants will learn how to design “umbrella projects” — long-term frameworks that link several mobilities under shared objectives, ensuring continuity, visibility, and stronger learning outcomes for students.

Through guided workshops, participants will explore how to translate Erasmus+ priorities — inclusion, participation, sustainability, and digital transformation — into real mobility activities. eTwinning will be introduced as a key collaboration and visibility platform, showing how online projects can sustain partnerships and lead to Quality Labels that recognise good practice.

The course is highly hands-on: participants will collaborate to develop joint project ideas, design mobility outlines, and experiment with digital tools for communication and dissemination.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

Explain how Erasmus+ Quality Standards guide the design of student mobilities.
Create a coherent “umbrella” project linking several mobilities under shared learning objectives.
Integrate Erasmus+ priorities (inclusion, participation, sustainability, digital transformation) into mobility design.
Use eTwinning and other digital tools for collaboration, documentation, and visibility.
Design activities that foster meaningful student learning before, during, and after mobility.
Evaluate mobility outcomes through reflection, peer feedback, and digital dissemination.
Build partnerships and co-create project ideas ready for implementation within accredited projects.
