Learning meeting n°1 in France: Thursday 9th to Tuesday 14th November 2017
Learning meeting n°2 in Spain: Thursday 8th to Tuesday 13rd February 2018
The shape is modelled by the end of the learning meeting n°1 in FR.
The frame is started in ES in February 2018 during and after the learning meeting n°2 and is sent by June 2018 to SE since school starts in August in SE for them to prepare the 3rd learning meeting in Sweden.
The date for the learning meeting n°3 in SE in autumn 2018 will be chosen by December 2017.
Contents of a learning meeting.
6 or 7 students and 2 teachers per visiting country = 12 to 14 foreign students + 4 foreign teachers
Sunday is by the hosting families for the students in local immersion.
Saturday is a day for culture and tours.
4 days of professional activities in school’s walls or out of school e.g. visiting a company, a car factory. Best is when students have to give a feedback in return .
Transnational of visiting students have to produce a document (ppt, video, diary, blog ….) which will be posted on the twinspace to allow the students at home to follow their work during the mobility. Doing so the few elected students on mobility are ambassadors for their many peers who stayed in their home country. This production is a tangible proof for their participation and understanding of activities led during the mobility.
The hosting school is responsible for designing activities and workshops followed during the learning meeting. All activities contents should be clearly related somehow to the project.
Latest two weeks in advance before the learning meeting starts the hosting school publishes to the partners a short summary of the contents of activities led during the meeting. Doing so the visiting students can be prepared by the teachers before departure.
Discussed issue: the time length in hours per day of time dedicated to project professional activities for each student. Should it be an average of 7 full hours a day or not?
One social gathering among students and hosting families, to export the benefits of the European project into the local population.
Opening the new twinspace.
form has been filled together to ask for the opening of the project twinspace and we hope to obtain our real twinspace before the end of this meeting to start to organise it together.
WEDNESDAY
Number of visiting foreign students to learning meetings
question: is there a possible way in each country to bring one additional student to learning meetings abroad?
answer: considering the low price of flights when booked long before (<100 euros whereas EU travel grant is 275 euros per pupil or 360 euros per pupil between ES and SE) it might be possible to finance more students to a learning meeting abroad. This could be a way to reach a total of 7 foreign students per visiting country to each learning meeting if the hosting school has enough hosting families. We decide to follow strictly the number of students in the application for the first year and see if positive reputation brings in the second year more than 6 applicants.
Sharing technical hints on how to use a twinspace.
Organising the project twinspace
Inviting new pupil members can be declared as in the example below in this order to identify each member’s nationality: FR for France, ES for Spain, SE for Sweden
