The pilot testing took place on October 11, 2023. It was done in the afternoon as it favored
the attendance of the participants that usually work all morning and they could not attend. It
was carried out at Espai Boule in Reus, Spain.

There were 10 participants and one main trainer, even though there were other trainers during the piloting just in case the trainer needed help with some of the sessions.

The profile of participants was quite diverse. Most of the participants were teachers of
different subjects such as: English, Italian, IT… but also there were two psychologists and a
non-formal educator that, all of them, part of their work is developing and conducting
memory workshops for the elderly.

After the piloting while the participants enjoyed the coffee break they were given the link to
the evaluation questionnaire.

The pilot testing was carried out on 31 August 2023 at the premises of the UPI – People’s University of Žalec. In order to accommodate the availability of our external collaborators as much as possible, we organised it in the afternoon. Our external colleagues – teachers – took part in the pilot testing. In total, 11 participants took part in the pilot testing.

The majority of them were teachers in non-formal education (languages, computing), but there were also a few teachers in formal education (adult primary school, secondary school programmes).

The pilot workshop started with an introductory welcome by the Director and a presentation of the
BLITT project by the coordinator Tina Baloh. Then Biserka Neuholt Hlastec talked about blended
learning, building on the basics that the pilot workshop participants already knew.

At the heart of the pilot workshop was an innovative pedagogical workshop with Natasha White
and Gaja Sofija Intihar. It focused on practical work, cooperation and group problem-solving. We
started with an ice breaker and continued with concrete practical examples where participants
worked together to find solutions.
