The project is very useful, mainly because it is addressing to VET teachers and trainers.
The project promotes employment of young people, through an effective use of social media and ICT. And manage to realize an aspect on which we should all focus, to establish effective links between the Vocational Education System and the world of work. I would be very interested to follow the training package on "employment mentoring in Europe" and the collection of materials (videos, games, links, etc.) adapted to the needs of the students.
Another interesting resource is the community/office of social online mentors where mentors offer support, advice and information related on how to use social media and ICT for finding a new job. I would very interested to be involved in a this kind of community with my colleagues to develop ways and tools to support our digital teaching methodology.

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
