We used Google forms to evaluate our LTT (long-term training) meetings between teachers, students, and families. Evaluations assessed factors like Europeanization, civic engagement, inclusion, and lifelong learning.
Evaluations found that over three years, Europeanization, citizenship, digital skills, and inclusion increased. The Bulgarian school, new to Erasmus+, saw the most growth. Students felt involved in the project and improved English and technology skills. Parents saw more active learning and positive school climates. Teachers felt goals were met and social harmony was good. Meetings received ratings of 8-10 out of 10.

As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

2. Summary of the Evaluations and monitoring of the meetings
Summary of the evaluations of our LTT meetings
We used Google forms to evaluate our meetings (LTT), both with students and teachers involved.
The meeting evaluation for each meeting (LTT) was the same form:
An initial general GForm,delivered among teachers/pupils/families involved in the project, will take a picture of the initial situation,referring firstly to
the chosen horizontal priorities/topics & secondly to the following parameters:
-Europeanization level
-Civic engagement & responsible citizenship
-Innovative practices in a digital era
-Level of inclusion
-Open education & active methods use
-School curricula composition
-Positive school climate
-Social cohesion
-Intercultural/intergenerational approach
-LLL attitudes
We used the same Gform pre- and post the project.
Google Forms
3. The teachers’ and principal evaluation of the three past years
We registered an increasing level of Europeanization, students’ civic
engagement, responsible citizenship and inclusion.
We discovered a higher level of digitalization, innovative practice,
active methods and higher level of participation in the community.
The Europeanization impact on our school curricula, level of positive
school climate, intercultural approach and lifelong learning
has increased .
Social cohesion among teachers is mostly at a lower level after the
project than before. Maybe this is because all were very excited to
start a project and this evaluation was just after the end of the
project.
Project evaluation from teachers in all the participating countries
Part of the evaluations:
4. The parents’ evaluation of the three past years
The parents’ general overview is that the level of Europeanization, responsible citizenship and children's participation in the community
has increased over the past three years during this project. Some more than others. The Italian school has almost the same level as
before and maybe this is because it is already an Erasmus+ project skilled organisation. Bulgaria is a new school in Erasmus+ project
and they have a significant development of this level.
The parents’ thoughts about children's’ use of digital applications for learning in school has increased in all the countries except in
Norway. In Norway they have a high level of using digital applications from before.
Most parents think the school uses more active methods than before the project, except in Italy. The Italian school is already at a high
level.
We discover that they think it is a higher level of inclusion in the classes and more positive climate at school.
The level of intercultural approach has increased in all countries, but significant in Norway and Bulgaria. Maybe it is because they are
not in the centre of Europe and they do not have many nationalities in their schools.
The school with the most impact seems to be the school with less experience in Erasmus+, the Bulgarian school.
Project evaluation from parents in all the participating countries
5. The students’ evaluation of the three past years
The majority of the students participating in WIB,use webtools
connecting to WIB and work in groups with classmates 2-5 times
per month.
They work with international groups 2 or more than 4 times per
year.
The majority of the students have perceived that we have carried
out ⅘ - 6 service learning activities.
The students feel involved in the project .On a scale from 1-10,(10
is completely) about 90% answers from 5 -10.
They also feel they have improved their English- and ICT skills
while working on WIB. There are differences between countries.
On a scale from 1-10,(10 is a huge improvement)100% of the
Bulgarian students answer 10 and from all the other countries
about 90% of the answers were from 5 -10.
Service learning (SL) has a positive influence on the students.
They feel SL have an impact on the community, they feel useful
and better during SL. 90% feel they are an active positive part of
the community after the project.
About 90% feel part of the European community.
The majority of the students think they have learned about
different beauties, 95% answer from 5-10 on a scale from 1 - 10
(10 is “I loved it”) .
About 99% of the students will recommend similar projects to
others and they will take part in another Erasmus Project.
