The project created a 10 category classification system to make it easy for anyone to find the best tool for their chosen teaching method. The MODERN project has been funded by the European Commission under the ERASMUS+ Programme. The project was solely interested in pedagogic potential, not “gimmicks” or commercial gain.

Active in other educational and training networks, Alfredo brings more opportunities to cooperate with other educational networks and associations.
