During the 3 days of the camp, teachers were involved in several working sessions being guided by the camp trainers: Chicu Valentina – education specialist; in the session with the topic “Project-based learning” she challenged teachers to identify effective ways to motivate teachers, students and educational institutions’ administration to participate in school competitions. Coadă Ludmila – dr. in history, university lecturer, presented the topic “Methodology of historical research and academic writing” in the sessions.
