Blog post by Jenni, Finnish teacher at Helsingin aikuisopiston peruskoulu<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of July, I travelled to sunny Lisbon \u2013 not on holiday, but to an Erasmus+ course about digital tools in teaching. The course took place from 28 July to 1 August 2025, and it was a really rewarding experience, both professionally and personally.<\/p>\n\n\n

There were 17 teachers on the course from six countries: Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Ireland and me from Finland. Most of the participants taught children and young people, so my background as a Finnish teacher in basic education for adults brought a nice, different perspective to the group. The course leader was a French language teacher, Cl\u00e9ment Huet. His practical approach kept the lessons focused and inspiring.<\/p>\n\n\n

Artificial intelligence makes teachers think all over Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the week, we learnt about many different digital tools. Apps for group work were part of the programme. It was great to try them as a learner and think at the same time about how they would work with the adults in my own class. We also looked at many planning tools for teachers, apps that support participatory teaching methods and AI tools, which led to a lot of discussion and questions. Artificial intelligence seemed to be the topic that caused the most excitement and the most uncertainty for everyone, no matter which country they came from or what age group they taught.<\/p>\n\n\n

Colourful Lisbon by the sea<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After the course days, it was time for Lisbon itself. The city is amazing: colourful, built on many levels and full of history. We walked along narrow, beautiful streets, found lovely restaurants and local pastries, and tried the old tram. We also enjoyed the sea views and visited several museums. Lisbon is a city you want to come back to. We also visited Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point of mainland Europe, about 40 kilometres from Lisbon. And of course, we swam in the Atlantic Ocean in Cascais, near Lisbon.<\/p>\n\n\n

All in all, it was an excellent week, both professionally and culturally. I warmly recommend similar training weeks to any teacher who wants to develop professionally and get a new perspective from the European teaching community. My suitcase came home full of new ideas \u2013 and a few treats from Lisbon.<\/p>\n\n\n
