From Observation to Innovation: Sharing Erasmus+ Job Shadowing Experiences in Italy

As part of ErasmusDays 2026, the Denizli Provincial Directorate of National Education will organise a provincial-level dissemination and professional development workshop to share experiences, good practices and innovative teaching approaches gained through an Erasmus+ KA121-SCH job shadowing mobility in Italy, held on 13–17 April 2026.
The mobility was hosted by Istituto Comprensivo De Amicis – Giovanni XXIII in San Ferdinando di Puglia, Italy, and provided opportunities to observe European educational practices, student-centred learning environments, STEM activities and interdisciplinary teaching approaches.
During the workshop, participants will explore classroom observations, international collaboration experiences and practical examples, including the STEM activity “Designing Earthquake-Resistant Cities”.
The workshop will encourage teachers to reflect on European educational practices, exchange ideas and develop strategies for integrating innovative approaches into their own classrooms. It will also highlight the contribution of Erasmus+ mobility to teacher professional development, institutional capacity building and European cooperation.
The event aims to strengthen the dissemination of Erasmus+ project outcomes and inspire further international collaboration among schools across Denizli.
