The PREATY (Proposing modern e-assessment approaches and tools to young and experienced in-service teachers) project aims at preparing teachers to apply modern e-assessment approaches and advancing teachers’ lifelong learning skills by building a community of teachers for sharing, discussing, debating, and improving assessment approaches. PREATY is now in the second year of its life and a lot of progress has been made. Currently, all partners are focusing on the organisation and development of the teacher training workshops and schools pilot implementations. Some partners have already developed the workshops and are now organising the pilot implementations. The phase of the workshops is expected to be completed during May.

Furthermore, PREATY will take part at the CAA conference, during 30th of June – 1st of July, with a workshop titled “Hands-on-workshop: How to apply technology-enhanced formative assessment for 21st century skills in the classroom?”. This will provide a good opportunity for the project to be wider disseminated and present the progress made so far. The last face to face project meeting will take place after the completion of the CAA workshop and partners will be able to discuss the progress of the project and the final steps that need to be done for its second year.
