12. Things to consider You must always plan your projects with the teachers involved, agree on when the project wil take place, and how much time you will spend on it. You must take into consideration when your partner countries have holidays, project weeks, examinations etc.

13. Things to consider You must do your best to finish your letters within the time agreed upon. On the other hand you must accept that things can happen – break down of hardware – illness etc. Your projects must always be adjusted to the weakest part – e.g. you cannot exchange photos by e-mail if not both have the possibility of scanning or using digital cameras.

14. Things to consider It is important to start with some sort of introduction to make you know more about your partners. If something prevents you from finishing your letters in time – send your partner an e-mail and tell why.

15. Things to consider If your partner has been sent an e-mail, and if you don’t get an answer - use snail mail or phone, or let your national coordinator help you. Make sure that you don’t hurt your partner’s feelings, when you contact them.
