B.Smart4Europe - Project description

    In all partner countries it is necessary to change teaching methodes in order to make learning more attractive for our students. Furthermore, most youngsters today are not able to work independently anymore, although this skill is absolutely essential in today's world of work. Our project focuses on the fact that young people use "smart" media on a daily basis today, but in spite of that their digital competence is rather weak and they are not able to use "smart" devices (e.g. smart phones, tablets and social media) effectively and purposefully.


    In addition, our students' general education and basic competences are deteriorating constantly in all partner countries. Our project reacts to this problem, as we intend to prepare our students for the labour market. A major problem is poor reading comprehension. This is the case for learners who learn the official language of the partner country as a first as well as second language. Poor reading skills are particularly problematic in our knowledge society.


    As there is a connection between deteriorating reading skills and a decreasing interest of youngsters in literature, we intend to arouse their interest again by dealing with literature in a creative way.
