  Etwinning as a collaboration platform in education: etwinning projects in language education in the context of teachers' views

  Maden, Asli; Hançer, Mevhibe Kübra

  The eTwinning activities carried out through the European School Education Platform are an exemplary model of integrating technology and curriculum in education. This platform, which the European Commission supports, fosters collaboration between educators and students at both national and international levels. Through this platform, students encounter diverse cultures and enhance their language skills. Using project-based learning in this context fosters the acquisition of 21st-century skills, including critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. However, research focusing on the role of eTwinning projects in language education is limited. The present study aims to examine the effects of eTwinning projects (a network-based learning environment supported by the European Union) on language education, based on teachers' views. The research utilised the case study method, a qualitative research design. The study's participants included 48 English language educators working within the city center of Bayburt. The study's findings were collected using semi-structured interviews, providing a comprehensive overview of the participants' perceptions. The analysis of the findings showed that most respondents found eTwinning projects to be effective in the context of language education. Consequently, the study findings suggested organizing seminars on new research and regulations, coordinating eTwinning projects, making planning announcements, and ensuring curricula compliance.
