The communication between the partners has been fluid, direct and constant throughout the entire project, being able to carry out all the objectives proposed from the beginning with the only exception of not having been able to carry out the physical mobilities to Portugal and Croatia, for reasons obvious, but having organized them virtually in a very satisfactory way. Communication between partners has been carried out initially through the Webex platform, which is the one authorized by the Department of Education of the Generalitat Valenciana (Spain), and later through the ITIS Q. SELLA Zoom account. Coordination between centers and especially the involvement of the teaching staff of each center, motivating the students, has been essential to carry out the project successfully. The main difficulties in the execution of the project are determined by the pandemic situation in the different countries. The coordination between partners has been satisfactory, although we have had difficulty reaching an agreement and choosing the dates and times of the different virtual work sessions, mainly the sessions with students. The reality of each center is very different, and exam periods, extracurricular activities and center activities have had a significant influence on the selection of dates and times. Likewise, preparing the necessary material resources and facilities adapted to the needs of this type of session has also involved arduous work, which has finally turned out well. Obviously, the most important changes in the project are the fact of going from carrying out face-to-face mobility to virtual. Thanks to the one-year extension of the project, we have been able to thrill our students and make them work in groups, both face to face and online. At the beginning of the project, a call has been published; 12 students have signed up. When we have an higher numbers of participants, the English language knowledge, the linguistic certifications, the ability to relate to each other, the situations of discomfort are normally evaluated. We decided to involve them all, dividing them into two groups. Six of them would have worked in view of the activities in Portugal, six of them in view of the activities in Croatia. The change from physical to virtual mobility made us change the organization of the students, trying to get a much higher number of students to participate, as it has finally been. We had workshops and teachers training with students who prepared them for mobilities. Association partners gave them a deeper understanding of the subject at hand. We established a photo video club with students and teachers, where students had the opportunity to develop their skills. Students had the opportunity to get acquainted with new digital tools, create water, audio and photo materials, and design and participate in ice breaking games and collaborative activities. Safety is achieved according to all standards prescribed by the school statute, epidemiological measures inside and outside the school.
