“Based on the information submitted by moderators. Some aspects have been reviewed and we made conclusions. During these five days it was a very collegial atmosphere, and such an efficient rhythm that we weren‘t noticed when the working day was ending. The teachers are persuasive and dynamic profesionals with experience, with well understood and highly developed language. We are armed with lessons projects that have used different didactic technologies for development. ”
“I learned many interesting energizing games, that i will try to use at lessons and activities. Finally, I deeply understood how to calculate the wage fund. I learned the methods: shared research, agenda with paralle notes, three-stage interview, interactive stations, and I want to use them in my lessons. We were put in the situation to make a business plan in pairs, to make the calculations of revenue and expenditure. We concluded that it is possible to do the same things with the students at lessons, but I think I will accord the financial plan several more hours (1-2 hours more, depending on the group). I will propose students to develop business plans in groups next year, this experience was a good one. I got answers, from trainers, to many questions that I had doubts about, related to Basics of Entrepreneurship subject”
