 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The course was well structured, and the atmosphere that developed was immediately relaxed and enjoyable. Dario is an empathetic teacher, full of tasks and, above all, contagious enthusiasm and inspiration that you can draw from. The activity with Nikola was also enjoyable and interesting. It is worth noting that the course is interdisciplinary and intended for teachers of all school levels. Therefore, the content provided cannot be considered a ready-made library to draw from, but rather a model to personalise and make your own. Choosing to attend the course in August in Split, as I did, also means dealing with the heat and a crowded destination during the hours when there are no course activities. I would recommend attending it outside the peak season, or choosing one of the many other destinations offered by the school. Thank you Dario!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Wellbeing course. It was a very enriching experience that gave me useful tools to manage stress, improve my focus, and become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. Well-being strategies for teachers: practice mindfulness, relieve stress and foster resilience was a well structured course, engaging, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated outdoor classes, the practical exercises and the opportunity to apply mindfulness techniques to everyday life. Dario created a welcoming and supportive environment, making everyone feel comfortable and involved. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve wellbeing, develop greater self-awareness, and find more balance in daily life. Split is a perfect natural location!!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The course was a truly positive and enriching experience. It introduced us to meaningful concepts and practical activities related to mindfulness, which I found particularly useful. Our teacher was one of the highlights of the course. He was extremely kind, engaging and cooperative, always bringing a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to the sessions. His genuine personality and gentle manners created a very positive and relaxed atmosphere within the group. I genuinely came to appreciate him thanks to his authenticity and the passion he put into his work. What  I particularly appreciated was the attention he gave to every participant. He listened carefully to our questions, requests and comments and was always willing to adapt, clarify and respond to our needs. He made everyone feel heard and involved. Overall, I found the course very inspiring, enjoyable and valuable. I am leaving with new ideas, practical mindfulness activities and a greater awareness of the importance of wellbeing and resilience, both for teachers and for our students.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a very mindful week in Split partaking in the course: Building better mental health and wellbeing. The methods we were introduced to will be helpful in managing the everyday stress of teaching. It was great to have a local teacher, who could share info about the Croatian culture as well as the course material. The additional social program was lovely as well and the guides provided us with insights into Croatian history and culture and showed us some truly special places.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Strengthen your assessment literacy, refine your skills in multiple evaluation methods, and transform assessments into powerful learning moments.
This course is created to support teachers at all stages of their careers by addressing the varied demands of modern assessment practices. Its central aim is to deepen teachers’ knowledge and competence in assessment literacy, moving beyond traditional test scores and straightforward evaluations. Through participation, teachers will gain essential skills and insights into a range of assessment strategies, with a strong focus on formative assessment. These approaches will help educators turn evaluations into meaningful learning opportunities and develop a richer understanding of the “how” and “why” behind classroom tasks.

Develop Skills in Formative Strategies, Digital Assessment Tools, and Key Soft Skills

Throughout the program, participants will engage in diverse formative assessment activities and explore digital tools that make assessments interactive and engaging. They will also take part in discussions involving classroom interactions, cooperative learning, and peer assessment practices. Alongside these pedagogical elements, the course places emphasis on important soft skills that empower teachers to confidently apply new assessment methods in their everyday teaching.

Boost Student Engagement in Your Learning Environment

A major component of the course involves reflecting on current assessment habits and examining contemporary practices. Teachers will be encouraged to design personalized assessment tools, create clear evaluation criteria, and develop rubrics tailored to their specific teaching context. By working on a humanistic assessment project, participants will learn how to enhance student involvement and ensure that every learner—regardless of ability or background—has the opportunity to succeed.

Ultimately, this course aims to equip educators with the strategies and techniques needed to elevate their instructional approach and enrich the overall learning experience. By broadening their assessment literacy and adopting innovative methods, teachers will be able to create more meaningful learning opportunities and deepen students’ understanding of the subjects they study.
