TIPS OF THE DAY FOR FILLING THE APPLICATION - In the application you have to explain clearly - especially in the profile part - what each of the participants will do after the course to implement outcomes: in which subjects they are going to change teaching methods, more use of ICT, more project work, more student centred learning etc. - If you apply for kind of excursion with too many teachers / staff members, it might not be taken serious by the assessors. You have to justify in the school development plan what the needs are. If you cannot explain why each of those people has to go to a course, they risk that their application will be rejected. - Acceptable number for participation in courses (according to my opinion) is 5 to 10, depending of the size of the school and the duration of activity. (Is it 12 or 24 months) It seems that most of the schools are doing in this way. - For “Benchmarking with Finnish school” –courses I recommend: manager, ICT teacher, head of department of a subject, responsible person for innovation, special needs teacher… - You have more chance if you send teachers to different courses that also fit in the school development plan. For example “Tip-Swipe-Pinch” course and and “Curation, Social Media King to restart Online Education - Latest trends in use of social media, web 2.0 and content creation in learning and teaching
