Teachers collaborated in the planning of the modules and in the realization of the expected activities. Students from the two countries produced common works to share ideas and information about their own schools. In many particular cases , they exchanged each other letters and cards by snail mail. Finally everything has been exchanged and compared through the publishing on the twinspace of videos , images and little texts using different software and web tools.
