EDUPLAT aims to be an Educational network where students, families, schools, teachers and other professionals in education can collaborate, sharing resources and adding value to all contributions and contributors. We have had this mission and our three main specific objectives in mind when implementing the project: I -Enlargement of the network of active and passive participants. II -Selection of resources and templates. III- Generated ideas for the future platform prototype.
The 2019/23 pandemic “Covid19” confirmed the need for innovation in education. During lockdown, teachers struggled to adapt their lessons online and their students suffered from ineffective learning. More than a billion students were affected by school shutdowns during the pandemic. However, it also created an awareness of the need for collaboration among educators. The number of Educational Resources shared in social networks like Facebook, Twitter or Instagram increased right from the beginning of the pandemic. However, none of these platforms were designed for effective collaboration among teachers, especially given the intensity of the activity in these networks and the struggle of many teachers to disseminate their resources effectively. This brought us to reflect on the need and potential of a network specifically designed for this, and the possibility of helping teachers to collaborate in the sharing of resources with international congresses in several European countries dedicated to this purpose, hence our reasons to apply for this Erasmus+ project.
