We need to ‘pump up’ students’

motivation all the time


Young people:- want to use new

technologies in order to learn creatively,

- demand skills which will enable them to cope with constant changes


Students

and teachers

emphasize the role of creativity, innovation, problem-solving skills and entrepreneurship.


Teachers underline

the role of non-formal learning (24/7)

Teachers underline the role of using Web 2.0 tools as the method of preventing students’ school failures


May your teaching be motivational,

inspirational, engagiging,

creative and funny!

Thank you for your attention
