Teachers’ Opinion
This website is well organised and provide links to many kinds of useful didactic resources.
It is useful to speed the research of didactical resources on the internet (http://digilander.libero.it/ , http://eu.ixl.com/ , http://www.emscuola.org/ ).
Unfortunately, these resources fit for primary school or lower secondary school pupils.
At most, they can be used with the first year classes of the high school in order to fill the gap coming from the former school level.
Nevertheless, some external websites quoted on this portal contain didactic materials useful also for the high schools. The US website http://eu.ixl.com/ looks very interesting on this way.
Students’ Opinion
Strenghts: easy access to the materials, variety of thematics and english specialisation.

Weaknesses: the resources fit more for primary school students than secondary school students.

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.
