Appreciations/Recommendations: The seminar was beyond a shadow of a doubt a very fruitful and enriching experience for all the participants, without exception. It has given a fresh impetus for the etwinning and etwinning plus project and fired the participants’ enthusiasm in such a way that many of them started working on the very first day. It is worth mentioning that the seminar was a great opportunity to showcase the Tunisian talent which left a tremendous impression on all the participants. That’s why I would highly recommend the organization of similar events.
