I am quite familiar with the LS methodology because of my several eTwinning projects.
Besides a strong mothodological basis from teacher's point of view, what I like in LS is the possibility to negotiate steps and process with students, who became more aware of their learning process.

Module 2.2 - What kind of content can you produce with your class? Post at least one idea for content you could produce together with your students that has a wider purpose and meaning than just the classroom activity.
It is not always easy to produce something that has a wider purpose than just the classroom activity...
Nevertheless, I think that an eTwinning project, although it is a "classroom activity", has always a broader meaning than "lesson"...
One of the most enjoyable activities is when students have to decide, plan and then realize a video to show a special dish of their gastronomy to their eTwinning partners. The activity can be carried out in a lot of different ways, but the purpose is always to share our traditions and culture with our partners. That will always implies that students have to broaden their minds in order to fully understand - through food - the other's culture.
Module 2.3 - Post your content here. Share your content creations with your peers. Post your links, files, images, etc. here and add a short description of how you created it
My students love creating videos. One of them is "A day in the life of an Italian student" that we showed during our second Comenius mobility in Spain.
They made it using an iPad.
Another app that my students often use is Prezi. Here you can see a presentation about a "wonderful trip", an eTwinning project about Latin America's culture, traditions and literature.
This presentation is about Argentina:
