What did not work: The contacts between both teachers and students, little interest among other teachers, technical problems, access to computers, changes of groups. Other problems: Funding in Italy, Internet connections, the lack of video equipment. The students´opinions: Personal contacts motivating, international contacts a change, a European dimension, gave responsibility, different ways of working from ordinary schoolwork, motivating, student exchanges would really motivate. Contacts and how to improve them: personal e-mail or fax, continuous contacts should be checked by teachers so that they really write. Contacts should be more frequent. Chatting could be arranged.
