Synergies between eTwinning and Comenius
• eTwinning provides a partner-finding tool specifically for those who want to find Comenius partners.
• The Twinspace is a useful place to put outcomes of their Comenius work (powerpoints, photos etc.) and also plan Comenius activity.
• eTwinning provides professional development on the ICT side of things, which will be useful to any teacher in a Comenius project.
