    THE PROJECT

    Europe is changing quickly, with technological advances, increasing globalization, and widespread migration, creating both new opportunities and challenges. School systems play a key role in meeting this challenges by driving education forward and being at the forefront of change and innovation. We hope this Erasmus+ project will help us to advance education and training in Europe.
    Our project focused on environmental issues, but the goals went a bit further. We wanted students to gain knowledge about the natural environment and raise their interest in its protection, motivate them to learn foreign languages and improve their language skills,develop multilingual interests and attitudes by learning subject contents such as natural sciences or history through the medium of a foreign language. Also, the project expected students to appreciate the cultural diversity in Europe in order to enhance societal cohesion in future European societies. By using modern technologies throughout the learning process and project communication with partners, we expected to train students to become responsible ‘digital citizens’. International exchanges also aimed at increasing the interpersonal, communication, and leadership skills of the students.
