Good practices in e-coaching: how to coach exchange students at a distance?

The VM-BASE project (Virtual Mobility Before and After Student Exchanges) wants to raise the quality of student exchanges by offering virtual support, both before and after the physical mobility. Virtual support is used to prepare and follow-up the mobile student, as a complement to the existing exchange programmes. The project thereby supports teachers in coaching exchange students at a distance (e-coaching). All ‘blended mobility’ activities, in which aspects of physical and virtual mobility are combined in order to maximize the advantages of both approaches, highlight the European experience while taking into account the local, regional and national differences.
