10. Experiences to share
To fill out a coaching report before contact > to prepare and respond to their needs
A portal as KlasCement is a lever for dissemination
Focus on digital and non-digital tools
Personal contact and support in the schools
Sharing experience of our northern neighbours: book ‘Learning in the 21st century’

11. Challenges
Participation of the schools (freedom of education) > breaking ‘conventional walls’ (curricula, lesson plans…)
Motivation of participants (bottom up <> top down)
Limited knowledge (and support in their own school) of the participants to set up Mahara or Seesaw
Limited budget and staff for a convincing implementation of the project, especially for research related activities – 1FTE for Flanders
Evaluation: alternatives for Mahara > Seesaw, Sesame, Exibi
Domination of Smartschool in Flemish education
Stimulation and inspiration by pedagogical coaches and teacher education (long term effect)

12. Positive notes
Innovative focus on learning processes: instruction, education and evalution
Exchange of experiences and coaching in schools
Exchange of international experiences
You pave a new learning path when you start walking on it
