For the dissemination event planned at the conclusion of the CAVE Project experimentation, more than fifty elementary school teachers from all over Italy were involved in the conference held in Rome on 22 May 2023. The participants were mainly from Rome and surrounding localities.
The multiplier event took place in Zamora, Spain and targeted 50 education inspectors who were being trained in methodological changes and digital competence. Eleven CFIE advisors were also present. Both inspectors and CFIE advisors have a direct relationship with teachers in the schools. It seemed appropriate to present the products to these professionals because of their ability to implement them in the schools.
