  1. CHRIS For the benefit of everyone, I am going to show the steps needed to 1.) register and 2.) login
  2. CHRIS For the benefit of everyone, I am going to show the steps needed to 1.) register and 2.) login
  3. VAL On this screen we are looking at “Find eTwinners”. This is where you can search for schools to partner with As you can see below, you can make: “ Quick Search” – use this if you already know the name of someone who is registered on eTwinning Use the extended search to search the database by “role”. “country”, “region”, “subject” etc
  4. VAL This is a dummy search. We have searched for a school in Spain, who would like to do cross-curricular projects, aged 4-11
  5. VAL We can easily learn a little bit more about Gloria from this page, she has included A profile photo On the right hand side, her “eTwinning life” She has noted that she is ready to start a project She last logged in quite recently so she is still active – this is a good thing to look for. You don’t want an inactive partner! Below this we have “My Journal”. There is a nice description from Gloria – you can see her page has attracted some replies. You can click on “Write a comment” to reply or just click ‘I like it’ Notice on the left, there is also a list of “My Contacts”. This is a bit like a Facebook or MySpace page. Every teacher on eTwining has this profile page. It is a good idea to keep yours updated and informative – more likely to attract partners this way. You can also click, on her school which is on blue text this lets you see who else from that school in registered and what projects they are
  6. VAL This is always on the right hand side of the screen. You just click on this and it takes you to your eTwinning inbox. It’s a good way to communicate directly with teachers. How do you know if you have been sent a message? We’ll have a look on the next screen
  7. VAL Here is a good top tip for you, check your notifications and make sure you are subscribed by clicking on the ‘subscribe button’ (Explain the notifications list)
  8. CHRIS As well as searching for and contacting teachers directly, you can use more general searches, for example forums
  9. Pause for questions before we move to next slide (Val – what was your experience of searching for and finding partners?)
  10. JOHN Firstly, in the “Profile” section you should view your list of contacts. Click on “see all contacts” to expand the list
  11. JOHN You will now see the complete list of all your contacts. You should check that your partner is listed in your contacts list. You will need your partner to be listed as a contact in order for you to submit your project.
  12. Go to www.etwinning.net . Click on collaborate
