Abstract

The use of new technologies applied to teaching has led to a qualitative leap in education due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19. This chapter describes the experience of converting an intensive program that had been celebrated in person since 2014, into an online event. Thus, through a project-based learning process, students of different nationalities were able to expand their knowledge related to ethics and finance, as well as other skillsets, such as autonomous and collaborative work, working in a multicultural environment, or the development of technological and language skills. All this was possible thanks to recent developments in software and applications that allow students and teachers to collaborate simultaneously while being separated by hundreds of kilometers in different European cities.
