The iTEC project from 2010-2014 worked with education ministries, technology providers, and research organizations across Europe to transform technology use in classrooms. Over the course of the project, educational tools and resources were piloted in over 2,500 classrooms across 20 European countries. The goal was to provide a sustainable model for redesigning teaching and learning. The project involved 26 partners, including 14 Ministries of Education, and received €9.45 million in funding from the European Commission.

of these new resources is to provide
pupils with opportunities for
collaboration, working with
technological tools, and real-world
applications for their lessons.

6. Developed by teachers from 15
countries across Europe, in
collaboration with policy makers,
pedagogical specialists and industry
experts, iTEC Learning Activities often
involve teamwork, use of technological
tools, and working outside of traditional
classroom environments.

teachers can integrate into their
classes, by choosing the learning
objectives, context, and delivery.
