Dear all,
I attach the early draft of the dissemination deliverable I plan to discuss with you tomorrow - for reference and in case you want to have a look at it before the meeting.
Also, there are two opportunities for dissemination, I would like us to briefly talk about.
1. https://www.mis4tel-conference.net/organization/committee (Marcelo)
2. https://oeweek.oeglobal.org (Thea)
See you all tomorrow,

Hello Everyone,
I hope you are keeping well.
As discussed briefly in TCD meeting (also in the OU meeting), can we organise an event (either of one or two days) in which we will bring teacher participants participated in the Exten(DT)2 project up until now from all countries together to make them share their experiences?
The purpose of this event will be to:
* Create a multi-country platform for teachers to share their learnings from participating in the Exten(DT)2 project;
* Record their experiences and suggestions that can be helpful resources to support Y3 implementation; and
* Engage teachers in a post-implementation activity which can function as a stimulated recall to trigger them to further implement DT project in their classroom settings independently.
And of course, this will help us in reporting around sustainability as we are not leaving teachers after they implement but we are following them up and helping them to build a wider teachers network.
For this, I propose the dates as 28th and 29th November, Thursday, and Friday (maybe of a 4-hour session each day)
We can ask each one to share their experiences in 15 minutes which will be followed by 10 minutes Q and A.
The proposed time is between 10 am and 3 pm UK time .
I am populating ideas here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aJh0FMT6Y5-93gtaXfwcoqjh8rUxvUWhkcgvygw…. Any suggestions are welcome! And, finally thanks Marcelo for this brilliant idea.
I am looking forward to hearing from you!
Best,
Sagun
Dear All,
Thank you for your feedback and comments on the draft JCD shared with you all in November.
LNU’s DPO and lawyer have incorporated changes to the revised attached draft, dated 19122022, and added two annexes.
Their responses (in bold text) to questions can be found in attachment 4.
Please send any further feedback to the draft JCD, including your additions for Annexes 1 and 2 by Monday 9th January.
Please also check the name of the person who would sign the JCD for your organisation on pp 8-14.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Best regards,
Shamim

Dear all
Following on from the WP7 meeting last week, I have developed a series of
data collection instruments and protocols for the school interventions,
which are stored in a folder
<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YzuyDATghL1RnkyQxPchAWeU6WTVu1QP?us…>in
WP7. This includes all the information you should need to apply for ethical
approval, such as sample informed consent/assent documents, overarching
evaluation protocol (data preparation and analysis to come), surveys,
interviews, teacher reflective diary and documents detailing the protocol
for each form of data collection.
All partners involved in interventions this year should review the
documents, add comments and make suggested edits *by 6th March. *I am also
happy to receive any direct email queries.
Please complete this Doodle
<https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/dLZkGMra>by *1st March *to
arrange a review meeting to further discuss data collection. Please ensure
at least one member of your team, involved in the interventions,
professional development or co-design workshops completes the Doodle.
Unfortunately due to other responsibilities I am unable to arrange a
meeting prior to the 7th March and the 10th is the OMT.
Any partner waiting to apply for ethical review can use all of the
documents in their current state as amendments will only be minor - aka no
new data collection instruments and no new lines of questioning. If you
have any specific questions about ethics I would be happy to help, so
please get in touch directly.
Hope you have a lovely weekend.
All the best,
Carina
Hi Shamim,

This meeting is cancelled due to Marcelo and Shamim being on annual leave.
A suggestion is that OMT partners, if working, use this scheduled time to:
* convene individual WP meetings to e.g., discuss and finalise their internal M27 technical reporting if need be, and/or
* do their individual partner internal financial reporting for M27.
Best regards
Shamim
Dear All
Period 1: EC Experts Scientific & Technical comments
* For the WP technical part of the reporting you should also read the EC Review comments from Period 1.
* Most WPs at individual level received only positive individual feedback
* We are going through the 5 main recommendations in our OMT meetings, and will report on them in a specific separate section in the final P2 report.
* However, if you are responsible for leading on any of the 5 main comments and there is already progress, please also refer and report this within your WP.
Period 1: EC Financial comments
* The EC expert reviewers did not have comments.
* EC’s own financial reviewers had comments for UGent, SIMPLE, NKUA, NTNU and TCD – which were mostly minor and/or resolved.
* They are also attached for your information.
Best, Shamim
Financial Reporting (NB: Not applicable for OU and UCL who I will contact separately for PM info).
This consists of 2 parts to fill in, the Excel Sheet and a Word document with narrative.
Please review in good time before Friday’s OMT meeting, so you can ask any Qs then.
Best regards
Shamim
---
1. Excel Sheet (figures)
* There is one tab per partner
* A notes tab for the transfers between SIMPLE/LNU/NKUA and earlier PM adjustments between WPs requested by partners
Action: On your Partner tab: Please report your costs for the 9-month period: 1 March 2024 - 30 November 2024 in the Excel in Column G.
This will automatically update columns H & I in the spreadsheet to M27 (the figures currently showing in columns H & I are those at M18)
1. Word Document (narrative)
For information only:
* Attachment 2 is what partners submitted as their expected costs in the Grant Agreement
* Attachment 3 is what was submitted at M18 in the Technical Report, re costs.
* You should read your own partner summary in attachments 2 and 3 before providing the requested narrative below for M19-M27.
Action: Please create a separate word document and provide the following information (expected length: one third to half a page narrative in total – use Arial Font 10 for your narrative)
1. For each of the three categories: Travel and Subsistence, Equipment, and Other Goods, Works and Services, write a short description of what your costs in M19-M27 consisted of. There is expected to be a connection of the costs to the work reported under the technical part!
2. For the five categories: Person Months Summary, Personnel costs, Travel and Subsistence, Equipment and Other Goods, Works and Services:
- If the total % left at M27 is > 30% or < 20% (in Column H on the excel) , provide an explanation of the deviation.
- Where the % left is >30% provide an indication of whether you will utilize the budget or not by the end of the project. Consider also whether you want to do an internal shift between budget categories and, if yes, provide reasonable justification.
1. If you received any specific comments from the EC/expert reviewers from the Period 1 formal M18 review, make sure they are also addressed.
