Abstract: The discovery and the spread of COVID-19 have led many governments to take drastic measures to mitigate its impacts in society. Around the world, teachers and students were forced to migrate the physical learning environment to virtual spaces. Four educational organizations from countries as different as Portugal, Austria, Sweden and Turkey came together to try to better understand and find solutions for the biggest challenges teachers are facing in online teaching focusing on eTools, eModeration and eAssessment is imperative. In this project we will explore the use of this 3 components, as means to foster the development of innovative learning processes and it will encompass in the following stages:

1 – This project will start with a study (PR1) that aims to outline a state of the art of online practices that occurred during confinement.

2 – Based on the opportunities offered by the results of the preliminary study and taking advantage of the added value of the knowledge and experience of University of Aveiro(PT) and Sucessos Criativos (PT), a blended training will be designed for teachers who participate directly in the project. This training must be replicated, through short workshops in the schools of origin.

3 – The evaluation of the blended training (LTA) as well as the results of its replication will settle grounds for the design and creation of an elearning course (PR2).

4 –The next stage will be the collection, evaluation and dissemination of best practices (PR3).

5 –The last action will be to produce a document addressing policy makers and other relevant stakeholders (e.g. Ministries of Education) to raise awareness as to the relevance of eTools, eModeration, eAssessment in the scope of online and blended learning and teaching processes (PR4).
