Teaching Updating

On 4^th and 5^th of February, EDO members have participated in activities of training and updating visiting different rural centers in Teruel. Specifically, they visited:

- Centro Rural Agrupado de Samontano Bajo Aragón, where the Management Team presented with detail the complexity of their management and organization on an educational center divided in different seats across different towns of Teruel.
- Centro Rural de Innovación Educativa in Alcorisa, where they could watch the work that the center is doing for 30 years in order to compensate some aspects like socializing and deepening transverse and specific contents that can’t be directly worked on in their centers of origin.
- School of Ariño, a rural center that from more than 10 years has been an example for its ICT inclusion as a pedagogical central tool in the development of their educational activity.
