The meeting was productive and in a constructive working format.
The head of work package 5, Maryna Shkuropat, spoke in detail about the post-pilot editing of university courses, according to the recommendations received from European reviewers, and suggested adding words of gratitude to all reviewers in the final version of the developed course syllabi. Three electronic courses of the project “Academic Writing for Scientific Publications”, “Digital Methods of Language Teaching” and “Ukrainian Language and Culture” are fully ready, posted on the Moodle platforms of the respective universities and piloting has begun. A series of trainings developed based on the course “Digital Methods of Language Teaching” will be conducted in Ukrainian for school teachers and university lecturers. The first wave of trainings was conducted in January. The second and third waves are planned for March and June, respectively. As for the gamified e-book, which was developed based on the course “Communication and Digital Media”, it is decorated with augmented reality tools and is generally ready and formatted. There are still some edits to the formal elements of the book.
The head of work package 6 – Quality Control, Tetyana Myronenko from NUKB, conducted an analysis of the feedback from applicants who mastered university courses during the fall semester. In general, the feedback is very positive. The vast majority of applicants expressed “approvingly” and “very approvingly” regarding the content of the courses, the quality of teaching and other questions of the questionnaire, which proves the responsible attitude of the development teams to the selection and presentation of course material. The managers discussed the issue of external review of all developed courses.
The leader of work package 7 – Dissemination of project results, Olena Gurko from DNU, spoke about the tasks for the spring semester.

The managers have agreed on the dates of the final project conference, which will take place from 19-23.10.2026 at the University of Western Macedonia, Greece. The project teams will start discussing the format and program of the conference and create a joint document. The program will be approved at the next managers' meeting.
