Italian teachers confirm themselves as the best, regarding the quality of the eTwinning projects. This data emerges from the evaluation for the granting of the eTwinning 2019 quality label undertaken these days by the community.

The European and national quality labels are official recognitions respectively issued, by the European unit and by the national eTwinning unit, to the projects carried out in the preceding school year which met the quality requirements, on the basis of quality evaluation criteria shared at European level.

2019 European quality labels

At European level, there were 629 quality labels issued to 496 Italian eTwinning teachers (more than 10% of the total of the awards granted all over Europe). The projects awarded the quality label can submit their participation to the 2020 European awards until 25 November.
