check

secure your intentions

After realizing the chosen @home activity, take time to reflect and embed it in your curriculum. How was the trip experience? Was it worthwhile? And why? Recap, review, revise, retain and recur!

In the check phase we use five easy steps:

  • recap (summarize and list)
  • review (analyse and conclude)
  • revise (correct and improve)
  • retain (embed and ensure)
  • recur (share and continue)

These five logically sequential and repetitive steps will help you to

  • improve quality structurally and cyclically
  • respond flexibly to changes
  • find periodic solutions to issues 
  • make internationalisation accessible to all
  • anchor internationalisation goals  in the curriculum
