It is a great pleasure to have shared and learned in these two weeks and especially in the first in which we saw each other all week in a "more" present / "physical" way! My feeback is a mega smile! I can't help you perfect any more! I find it impressive! I am your fan and that of the colleagues who have shared this brief adventure and I would love to continue for a while with the whole group.I was very afraid of despairing with the apps ... and I have enjoyed and learned things that I would not have imagined learning in such a short time and there is still a lot to advance for me.

Everything … learning journal, gratitude journal, workshops and simulations, team work …

All 4 Cs, PBL, oracy, teamwork, samples from different schools, fish bowl model... simply made me even more enthusiastic about upgrade and improve teaching/learning process. I’m really happy I’ve got a positive confirmation of my perception of teaching and learning.

Carolina, the entire course was realized over my expectations. I’m highly motivated to go on with my ideas, hand in hand with new knowledge you passed it to us. I’m grateful to have a possibility to learn from you, because you are a person of actions and experiences. Thank you.​

We had lots of time to discuss ideas as a group, we had modelling and saw the facilitator role and the language used and we had a chance to develop our own PBL project.

This workshop opened my mind to ideas beyond the textbook.

The course was adapted to our needs and there was room for discussion!! It was a really great feeling that the presenter asked in advance what our specific needs were.

Very good that we got the presentation for every day in advance. A lot off information and links in the slides. There is still a lot off exploring I can do!

I have already had the chance to apply some of the acquired knowledge to my work and I’ve managed to offer students some great aha-moments. We did a team building exercise (we used the spaghetti-marshmallow challenge) with a group of students and the reflection process seemed to really get them to think about their roles and teamwork skills. Also, when I explained how this “silly” exercise helped them to develop their 4 Cs, quite a few students’ eyes lit up with the realization that this task was actually really useful.

You are doing an excellent job combining the different learning paces and interests of the group. We know that there are people who are quite overwhelmed with the ICT issue, others who perhaps have even more experience in this area, but I think that the balance that you are showing between explaining and applying everything very well the fact that you stick to the original program is certainly commendable.
I know the effort and wear involved in managing everything and even more remotely, so I simply wanted to express our gratitude for acting professionally and involving you, giving your best.

I follow a lot of courses (not all international) as a student counselor and as a teacher. It was such a valuable course. That’s a long time ago that I learned such an interesting methodology and had such a useful and concrete course.

I really like the fact that Carolina let us be part of the PBL course, by teaching her lessons as a PBL project. It gives a clear and concrete image how it works and you have the experience yourself.

The teamwork was such an interesting adaption for our regular work. It opens your eyes and give you the chance the look from a different point of view.

​

Carolina created a great environment for us to bounce ideas off each other about how to practically implement PBL in our own classes.

​

It was wonderful to have the opportunity to have an extended period of time to focus on the concepts and learn while participating in the PBL format. Also to see how teachers working with students in different circumstances and with different levels all responded, I think we could all see the benefits of structuring learning this way.
