"The project is born from the will of the coordinating school ""GALLO"" to participate for the first time in an Erasmus + project. The project idea was launched on the live eTwinning platform and is immediately welcomed by several schools. The choice fall on three Liceul Regina Maria Dohoroi schools, Agrupamento de Eschola D.Sancho1 of Famalicão, Gymnasium Antano Smetonos in Ukmerge. They are those ones who seemed to us the most interested and motivated to the collaboration and the good success of the project. Matching people ho worked in project and those ones who are least experienced encourage them all to continue the idea that an Erasmus project is only sustainable benefit for students, future European citizens, for teachers, schools and the whole European community.The project, whose acronym is WEBLANGUES, has the following title: ""Learning languages by creating a website"".The objectives are: To promote knowledge of the culture of the four countries through the enhancement of UNESCO heritage, local gastronomy, music through the practice of the collaboration of all boys and girls, using a common language and realizing together a WEB page, powerful means of communication; improve linguistic and communicative skills; exchange information and ideas with students from different cultures and choose effective ways to disseminate them; to promote learning and teaching through the use of platforms such as eTwinning, to become aware of the possibility of cooperating, to understand the ""other one"", to increase academic success, to promote the social inclusion of socially disadvantaged pupils, to promote gender equality but also to become aware of analogies and differences between countries and cultures; use computer technologies as a means of placing students in a communication situation; widen cultural horizons and educate for inclusion; strengthen the key competences of citizenship; develop social skills; build a stronger bond between young people of different nationalities. The target group of the project is represented by students aged 15 to 18All of them have common points such as: social and economic disadvantaged, risk of absenteeism and dropout, desire to take part in a European project and motivation, gender equality, SEN.These students have intermediate level of proficiency in French and are able to participateactively involved in all activities planned by the project but they need to supplement and enrich their scholastic preparation with finalized formative experiences to broaden their cultural horizons. Four teachers also participate in the mobility.Students participate in the following activities: search for information via the internet on local cuisine, selection and production of recipes, in the kitchen laboratories; elaboration of the lexicon relating to food and creation of the food pyramid with drawings google, elaboration of crosswords with definition.Analysis of the text of a song on peace to celebrate the union of countries, improvement of phonetics and performance of the song on musical basis or with the instruments played by musicians student, selection of photos and videos, construction of a power point, video editing with windows movie maker, use of eTwinning, interviews, etc ...The methodology used to carry out the project:work in groups of four, cooperative learning, peer to peer, brainstorming, storytelling.These are all methodologies that encourage students to engage in an activity with a common purpose.This reinforces the intended objectives of the project.Results and expected outcomesDevelopment of cognitive skills in research, selection of organization and reuse of information and creation of the web page to share resources, materials and products createdDevelopment of linguistic and communicative and technological skillsAcquiring the motivations of food choices for a correct dietStrengthen social and interpersonal skillsStrengthen cooperation and collaboration within the group and with teachers in partner schoolsBecome responsible for the products developed and the means to achieve them.potential long-term benefits:Encourage healthy choices when they are students but also years later when they’ll become adults.Improve key competences wanted by the EUUse of the language in real situations can encourage future European citizens to free movement of people without feeling the obstacle of the language in the search for work or in the continuation of studies. The resulting collaborative spirit will help positive relationships between people and the use of ICTs in responsible way."

"Environmental responsibility, both locally and globally, has increased tremendously over the last decade. One of the strategies of environmental policy is also to raise awareness of people, especially young people. Young people are and will be increasingly involved in green economy policy, which is why Let`s Robot Waste was a great way to face solutions on waste prevention and separation.The ultimate goal of our project was to design and make a robot with three drawers for sorting waste. In the process of creating the robot, students of different ages (16-19 years), technical fields (mechatronics, ICT, mechanical engineeering) and grammar school program learned about the technical procedures of making a robot, materials, programming a system for moving the robot, graphic computer programs for design of the brochures and stickers, recording and editing videos, setting up and editing a website and last but not least about the environment and the importance of making others aware of waste separation and recycling.The students were working with suitably qualified mentors, who hepled the students to come up with solutions for the mechanical fabrication of the robot and the programming of the software of the robot. Since the materials for the robot were gathered during the ""lockdown"", the students and the mentors had a lot of problems with ordering and, last but not least, with exchanging the materials and getting proper ones. All lectures, meetings and orders were held in English through ZOOM or. Skype and via E-mail. The students and mentors were confronted for the first time with teaching and with learning practical training with the help of distance teaching and learning. Local companies involved in environmental protection activities have also adapted and during the COVID-19 pandemic made their presentation possible in the videoconferencing system.The robot we have assembled and programmed can be a fun and at the same time an educational element of every school. In the new school year, the robot will meet our students in the school lobby and remind them how to dispose individual waste in a proper manner (paper, packaging or organic material - stickers with icons, of course, were designed by students)-the students should out the waste in a suitable drawer. It was during the real and virtual meetings that we found out that not all high schools are equipped with different waste separation bins. With our robot, which we named Robbin, we want to influence not only students, but also school principals and employees to be aware of their responsibilities in waste management.In the extended deadline for the completion of the project, which the schools had due to the pandemic-related emergency, we carried out two real and one virtual mobility. 6 students and 3 professors participated in each mobility from each school. All three partner schools have successfully constructed a robot consisting of a head, a central body with three drawers and a chassis. The partner school from Lithuania took care of the production and design of the dissemination material - the brochure. The students have also set up a website (https://letsrobotwaste.eu/) to which they uploaded photos of all three mobilites. Each of the partner members also carried out cooperation with a local environmental company in the form of a brief presentation of their operation and the importance of proper management of various wastes. For the purpose of the virtual activity, short videos, sketches and matrices about the origin and complications of assembling the robot were created. Without a doubt, all participants in the project (students, professors, school management, local companies) improved their communication skills in both their mother tongue and English, as we were encouraged to do so by working from home and switching between different videoconferencing tools (ZOOM, Skype, Teams). We are very proud, however, that despite being unable to work at the school, we managed to assemble all three moving robots."
