eZB Workshops

The eZoomBook-Baludik Challenge is a pedagogical project run by language teachers throughout the 2017 Winter Semester, addressing their newly arrived international Masters students in Centrale Nantes (engineering school). Students were asked to create geocaching quests in Nantes, combining eBook publishing tool eZoomBook and geocaching app Baludik.
