The case studies were followed by the e-learning platform demonstration of Action Synergy. During the presentation, Dominikos spoke about the value that an e-learning platform has in such educational projects, presented the material created during the last 3 years and did a live streaming with Bloemcampschool to hear the opinion of students there.
