As we are successfully reaching the end of the European Erasmus+ project MeLDE – Media Literacy in the Digitalised Era: Supporting Teachers Through a Whole-School Approach, Net Media Lab organized and implemented the pilot testing activities, with the aim of testing the project’s educational material and created products to a group of Secondary Education teachers, and help them familiarize with the notion of media literacy and its value during the 21^st century. It is considered crucial to know about digital tools for online education, online communication and collaboration and online safety, during the COVID-19 pandemic, when most of the educational activities are being held online.

The training activities of the MeLDE project, were held online and were divided in 3 sessions, the first being on the 13^th of July, the second on the 22^nd of July and the third on the 28^th of July 2021, with the participation of 25 teachers in total.

During the sessions, apart from a general presentation of the MeLDE project and its products, the participants were trained on Canva, a tool for creating digital material. Also, the participants were trained on the use of the MeLDE e-Platform and its functions and they were especially taught about the material of the e-Safety module of the project.
