Dear all,
We found out that there are 2 different things mentioned in the proposal (attached) regarding the partners who will do pilot school interventions in Year 1
On page 11, Cycle 1 descritpion, i.e. Y1 , writes that "The evaluation (WP7) will take an in-depth look at the implementation of Exten.(D.T.)2 activities in two classrooms in each country."
On page 32, WP5 Task 5.2, writes that "[...] implementation of pilot interventions by 1-2 partners in a school setting. It will engage a small number of students (~100 students) for the initial testing of Exten.(D.T.)2 technologies (WP4) and resources (WP3)."
So we have to decide what we will do to reach the numbers and
stick with what we have promised
Regardless the above, it is probably a good idea that each partner does at least one small pilot intervention for this year, e.g. 1 teacher and 8-10 students, for the following reasons:
1) If all partners are involved in year 1 piloting they will
provide valuable feedback on the evaluation, the intervention
process and the technologies which will then be a strong baseline
for designing year 2 tools and resources
2) With piloting, partners will develop the necessary experience
and background for year 2 implementations, which are full studies
and with a much higher number of students. Otherwise we may face
the issue of year 2 turning to be the pilot phase for some
partners instead of a full study.
3) We don't know if the reviewer and the PO will notice that so,
it is better to stick with the scenario that promises the most,
i.e. all partners do piloting, rather than the less.
Please let us know what you think on that.
A reminder: In this
excel you can see the planned school interventions and
insert your infromation
Best regards,
Marianthi
