     In addition to developing the students English language skills, the project aims at developing the students’ entrepreneurial knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Through the different pedagogical approaches deployed and the various activities in the project, the teachers intend to provide opportunities for collaboration, effective communication through real context and problem solving situations for their students integrating the above mentioned skills to the core subjects involved in the project. 

    The project was launched in October 2019 by Hayfa Majdoub (Tunisia) and her cofounder Mariella Brunazzi (Italy) both teachers of English. The project ended in May with a successful online campaign organized by the students on different social media channels. The activities of the project went on all year long, yet, the Coronavirus crisis has been a factor for change in the planned activities but keeping the same scope of developing the students entrepreneurial ventures. A recently published newsletter of the project final products is a summary of the activities that the students took part in or collaborated internationally to achieve them. 

    The students and the teachers primarily used the Twinspace , the eTwinning safe working place, they communicated and collaborated through other various web tools such as Microsoft Teams, Google Hangout. They also used discussion groups on messenger and facebook groups. Moreover, they wrote emails and created videos, they created posters collaboratively wrote a script for a collaborative video. The learning activities involved the students, their family members and friends through sharing tips on how to be positive during the quarantine. But they also involved students and people with special needs both from their schools, different schools or from the civil society.
