This executive summary presents the main findings from the EVALUATE European Policy Experiment Project. The EVALUATE project was a European policy experimentation funded by the European Commission's Erasmus+ programme (EACEA/34/2015). The aim of policy experimentations is to assess the effectiveness and potential scalability of innovative policy measures through experimental or semi-experimental approaches. This particular European policy experimentation evaluated the impact of the telecollaborative model of virtual exchange on student teachers involved in initial teacher education (also referred to as 'pre-service' education) in European countries and regions. [To read the full report, "Evaluating the Impact of Virtual Exchange on Initial Teacher Education: A European Policy Experiment," see ED593741.]
