Project idea and plan

  • About the project

    Project idea is to do preventive measures to reduce tension for learners - dynamism in the learning process and during out-of-class time (lesson breaks leisure time), by organizing this time outside the school premises - in nature. Slowing down the daily rhythm, giving the opportunity to listen to themselves and nature and giving them time to accept themselves and what is going on around them. This would improve students' soft competences.

    • a survey for pupils 02/2021 - 03/2021,
    • essays after interdisciplinary learning visits 03/2021 - 04/2021,
    • Presentations of students project works “STEM in nature or Healthy lifestyle” 03/2022,
    • posters World Heath Day contest 03/04 2022,

    Teachers will exchange of experience about topics and methods used in teaching Math and Science in nature 04/2021 - 04/2022, e-book with collected project results 05/2022

     

    EXPECTED RESULTS

    The project will help schools to identify and define additional resources for developing students' key competences and soft skills. By making an e-book with all collected project results all project partner schools will continue to use these resources (nature, outdoor tools, afterschool-targeted activities) and also these resources will be available to be used by other schools not involved in the project by making the Twinspace public.
