The teacher training department of the NHL University of Applied Sciences have developed an international online platform with three main objectives: allowing pupils all over the world to communicate and collaborate with peers at home and abroad; allowing student teachers to practice their didactic and pedagogical skills “anytime and anywhere” and offering university researchers and students a virtual laboratory to experiment with innovative learning methodologies and research. The platform has been developed by NHL lecturers and students with the express purpose to achieve the ambitions outlined above in a safe, secure and non-commercial environment.
