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!Posted on 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!!!Posted on 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.Posted on 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
In an era of rapid technological evolution, educators often struggle to keep up with the ever-changing landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Tools like ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and Gemini are no longer just “tech trends”—they are fundamentally reshaping how we plan lessons, engage students, and assess learning.
However, a “Smart Classroom” is about more than just using the latest software; it requires a deep understanding of ethics and the ability to maintain critical thinking in a world of automated answers. This course, set in the historic and sun-drenched city of Split, is designed for teachers who want to master AI tools while keeping the human element at the heart of education.
Through hands-on workshops, we will explore how to balance high-tech efficiency with the relaxed “Pomalo” lifestyle—learning to work smarter, not harder, so you can focus on what truly matters: your students.

UNBURDEN THE WORKLOAD
Modern teaching often feels like a race against the clock. Erasmus Courses Croatia recognizes that AI is the ultimate assistant for unburdening teachers. By leveraging AI models like DeepSeek and ChatGPT, you can automate repetitive administrative tasks, generate rubrics in seconds, and draft parent communications instantly.
This course provides practical, step-by-step training on using platforms like MagicSchool to reclaim your time. We believe that a teacher who isn’t overwhelmed is a teacher who can truly inspire.

ETHICS & CRITICAL THINKING
AI brings up big questions: Is this cheating? Is the information biased? Are we losing our ability to think for ourselves? Unlike standard tech courses, we dive deep into the ethical landscape. We will show you how to turn these challenges into “teachable moments,” using AI to actually sharpen student logic. You will learn how to teach students to fact-check AI “hallucinations” and understand the moral implications of data privacy and algorithmic bias.
PROTECTING THE LEARNING LOOP
A key theme of this course is the growing risk that AI separates confidence from real competence. Research shows that students often feel more certain because an AI answer looks polished, even when it is factually wrong. If we allow AI to remove the struggle of learning, students stop checking, stop improving, and stop thinking.
We don’t teach you how to “ban” AI; we teach you how to build “Interruption Points”—practical classroom strategies that slow the process down and bring back reasoning, accountability, and genuine student inquiry.

ENHANCE PEDAGOGICAL CREATIVITY
AI is a spark for your imagination. We will explore how AI-driven design tools can turn a simple lesson into a visual masterpiece. From generating personalized stories for language learning to creating interactive science simulations, you will learn to use AI as a “co-pilot” for creativity. By the end of the week, you will have a digital toolkit ready to transform your classroom into a dynamic hub of innovation.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
- Redefining Integrity: Create clear classroom expectations on what counts as legitimate AI support versus plagiarism.
- The Feedback Guard: Learn to use AI in a way that protects the “practice-and-correction” loop essential for deep learning.
- AI vs. Human Logic: Understand why generative AI sounds so convincing even when it “hallucinates” (and how to show this to students).

- Prompt Engineering for Teachers: Learn how to write “smart prompts” to get the exact lesson plans and assessments you need.
- The Ethical Compass: Understand how to navigate plagiarism, bias, and data privacy in a school setting.
- Fostering Critical Minds: Develop strategies to teach students how to question and verify AI-generated content.
