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
Build a Foundation in Coding and Bring That Knowledge Into Your Classroom
This Erasmus+ KA1 training course is designed to develop your computational, creative, and critical thinking skills. Coding and programming continue to be some of the fastest-growing fields of the 2020s, with constant expansion as new technologies emerge. For this reason, gaining a solid understanding of how computers and digital systems function is increasingly valuable. Throughout the course, you will begin creating your own simple programs and learn how to effectively introduce these concepts to your students.
Promote Playful Learning Using Scratch as an Engaging Digital Tool
Our skilled Erasmus trainers will show you how to work with Scratch—the world’s largest coding community, known for its intuitive and child-friendly graphical interface. You will quickly learn how to build interactive stories, animations, and even basic games. Scratch is available in more than 70 languages and is widely used across the globe, making it an ideal starting point for beginners of all ages. During the course, you will explore key programming concepts such as loops, variables, and conditional statements. Most importantly, you will also apply this knowledge in Python, a widely used programming language, and learn how to design your very first algorithm by applying the logic gained from working in Scratch.
Strengthen Practical Coding Skills Through Creative, Hands-On Activities
Overall, this Erasmus course places strong emphasis on developing practical abilities and problem-solving strategies. While it introduces the essential theoretical foundations of programming, it primarily focuses on doing and creating. By the end of the week, you will feel confident guiding your students through fun coding tasks, helping them take their first steps toward future digital competencies.
