A new Twinspace for new projects
To make working together with your partners easier we have a new and improved Twinspace for all newly registered projects. It is now easier than ever to share your work, communicate with your partners, create project activities and get your pupils actively involved.
Here is a sneak peek:
To get a Twinspace of your own to work on all you need to do is register your new eTwinning project.
