The Teacher Education Network’s Blended Intensive Programme: ENLIGHTening!

The ENLIGHT Teacher Education Network developed an Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) on global citizenship in European classrooms.

During the last week of April, 45 students and 12 PhD student coaches from all 9 ENLIGHT partners investigated global citizenship in European classrooms.
