This article provides an analysis of data extracted from specific sections of a semi-structured questionnaire filled in by 29 Expert Leader Teachers (Animatori Digitali or AD in Italian) taking part in an Erasmus+ KA1 Project before and after their mobility abroad. These teachers were asked to answer questions concerning the Didactic Dimension, the Professional Managing Context, ICT in Education, Data Processing, Communication, and Content Creation, to the purpose of assessing how their competences had improved in consequence of their experience in the Erasmus+ project. Through a mix-method process, combining the analysis of questionnaires and the reports by the teachers after their mobility abroad, it was possible to compare quantitative and qualitative data with reference to emerging significant categories in the relevant dimensions. Research showed that Erasmus+ mobility had a positive effect on teachers’ awareness of the importance of ICT for education in a European dimension with a significant increase in values on a 3-graded Likert scale concerning such items as "I can exploit ICT potential to create effective exchanges with colleagues from other countries" (+22,5%), and "I can promote ICT use so that it gives an added value to teaching and learning" (+11,8%). Such positive outcomes were confirmed from a qualitative analysis of teachers’ reports on their experiences abroad: the most relevant concepts found in text corpus showed teachers’ increased awareness of their competences in all the dimensions considered.
