INVITED Talks on virtual exchange
im Englischunterricht der Grundschule

INVITED Talks is a series of events focused on Virtual Exchange (VE) in pre-primary and primary language classrooms, organized by the INVITED project - Integrating Primary and Pre-school Virtual Exchange Projects into Language Teacher Education (invited-project.eu).
The INVITED project — Integrating Primary and Pre-school Virtual Exchange Projects into Language Teacher Education, is a transnational initiative involving the University of Education in Germany, the University of Murcia in Spain, the University of Warsaw in Poland and the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, as well as the collaboration of Strathclyde University in the UK.
eTwinning provides us with a great opportunity to create not only a network of students and teachers but also a bunch of collaborative activities. One such activity, storytelling, allows us to enrich our students' knowledge about different cultures and topics. Currently, teachers have at their disposition a variety of digital resources to create collaborative activities. Among these, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the most powerful. In this webinar, we will see how using AI to create stories can enable students not only to use new digital tools but also to reflect on how to use them ethically.

eTwinning offers a unique opportunity to connect teachers and students from different countries, creating engaging and interactive language learning experiences. In this webinar, you will discover how eTwinning projects enhance language skills for young children through authentic communication, intercultural learning, and fun, hands-on activities. We’ll also explore how digital tools motivate students and how teachers can benefit from sharing best practices. Join us to explore project ideas that stimulate creativity, language development, and cross-cultural understanding in young learners.
