ONE GOAL

Our intention is to create more possibilities for teachers of Science to cooperate and carry out common projects and to tackle the problem of getting isolated and not experiencing enough professional stimuli from one another.

Jedlik Ányos Gymnasium

Our school is a prestigious institution, highly appreciated by the local community. Generations of families attend the school and many colleagues have been teaching here since the beginning of their careers. Although we are all proud of our achievements and traditions, this situation can have its drawbacks too. We experience difficulties of communication between colleagues of different subjects due to the lack of common projects. This is the main reason why we are looking for new ways of professional cooperation within and also outside of our school. We expect to overcome these flaws by joining an international project which surely will broaden the colleagues’ horizons both by improving their foreign language communication skills and their pedagogical expertise. Moreover, an international project can also provide our students with experiences which are not possible to gain locally. All these factors will presumably result in a more open-minded, progressive school culture.

Pakruojis ,,Atžalynas” gymnasium

The understanding of quality in the educational process of teaching science is the agreement between the school community members. To reach better results teachers use various innovative methods and their experience from different projects. The participation in the project for strengthening the interdisciplinarity in teaching Mathematics, Physics, Biology and Chemistry will be a great input into their efforts to make the teaching and learning process a success while being able to learn more, share and apply the most acceptable and value-added approaches.

Agrupamento de Escolas Daniel Sampaio

The school has been building their international program for the last 15 years through former Comenius and Erasmus+ KA2 multilateral partnerships, together with bilateral partnerships for student exchanges, having then a long and rich experience. On the specific level, being a school with a long tradition both on science programs and international ones, it was a success to have joined both on the ongoing E+ KA2 partnership, which allowed the school to engage, for the first time, science teachers and students in a science curricular project; plus, the interdisciplinary dimension added to this new project will enhance the attractiveness of science teaching/learning, aiming more task and project-oriented methodologies, which are not unknown to school but never on the international level.

MDTO MESLEKI VE TEKNIK ANADOLU LISESI

We would like to discover the other regions and will offer new perspectives of outside world and good school-based learning environments which are very important for the development of qualified European labour force in future. Project-based learning contributed towards us to develop knowledge and understanding among students and educational staff of the diversity of European cultures and languages and its value; and to help young people acquire the basic life-skills and competencies necessary for their personal development, for future employment and for active European citizenship and most of all to be proud of being European.
