The main aim of the project was to implement new motivating methods of work and improve effectiveness of teaching - learning process in the six European schools. With pupils from partner countries being engaged in the project, teachers conducted activities with WEB 2.0 tools to transform each partner school into modern, up to date, encouraging to learning institution. Project concerned schools of the same type and student's age, providing general education in the area of basic skills. All six schools were willing to participate in international project, as it was a crucial point in the European Development Plan of each of them. The schools in their curriculum focused on introducing innovative methods and Web 2.0 tools into teaching-learning process, which was stated as means to increase motivation for work both of students and teachers and thus to improve educational offer and teaching results. Project work was to be that kids engage in, their effort, strategies their focus, perseverance and their improvement. What more partners had in common was that, according to partner school statements, all schools faced the same lacks in teaching - learning areas. In particular, there were problems in creating a student centered classroom where learners can engage in high interest content that is relevant, useful, and promotes innovation. Thus, partners worked in the interesting context of different countries and cultures, with the use of WEB 2.0 tools in order to improve the lacks in students' 21st century skills and practice communication, critical thinking, creativity and collaboration. A multilateral partnership with use of WEB 2.0 tools made it possible for at least 15 pupils and 15 teachers of each partner to take part in the project mobilities and students at 5 schools to undergo tasks in international cooperation. Why did we want to use web 2.0 tools in learning-teaching process? These tools support creative and critical thinking skills by preparing students for the business and educational life of the 21st Century. Web 2.0 tools can be used in teaching different subjects at school. It is also a fact that students had a positive impact on the level of technological literacy. Today's technological developments affect everything in the life of the individual. In this regard, education administrators and teachers choose the most appropriate tools for effective teaching and made effective use of them in the learning-teaching process. Web 2.0 tools offered great opportunities. Students, when got familiar with new tools, made serious progress while preparing e-content for project purpose, and then worked on different subjects about they learned at school.The 3 years long cooperation and five international workshops with use of digital tools planned with pupils and teachers from partner countries provided the following results: 1 . Erasmus Plus Club - Meetings of all students participated regularly in working process on project results and took part in mobilities weekly at each school. 2. Project Blog - with digital works of students, set up for each school community 3. Open Twinspace on eTwinning - with all students and teachers. 4 . PROJECT WEBSITE 5 . Digital works and PDF print-outs of LTTs - on subject “Our Culture and Heritage” (digital books, quizzes, posters, movies, newspapers) 6. Taken photos at Erasmus Club workshops and at each Learning / Teaching / Training Activity . 7. Interviews, online questionnaries 8. E - DIARY , Videos - on project www and twinspace 9. EVALUATION QUESTIONNARIES and REPORTS 10. European Heritage Day - set up annually and coordinated at each partner school School - in each country the school coordinator was responsible for it. 11. Facebook group was established for teachers to provide communication. Poland was responsible to create this group. 12. Archive of tools were presented on project blog.To sum up, we enhanced the quality and relevance of the learning in education by cooperating with partners, and also, we implemented innovative approaches based on Web 2.0 tools into the curriculum. Partnership helped to boost teachers' professional development. Partners contributed to defined goals of the project, learnt and understood different cultures and countries, cooperated with members of locality, heritage and cultural institutions and representatives, brought up new ideas, change and inspire thinking.

Our partnership had 9 gimnazium schools from 9 different countries. We created this project to encourage students to adopt a healthy lifestyle by choosing a healthy sport and diet. The healthy education promotes learning in other subjects. In general, healthy students learn better. Numerous studies have shown that healthier students tend to do better in school. They have higher attendance, have better grades, and perform better on tests. For this reason, the aims of our common work have been: exchanging experiences, best practices, methodologies and tools among staff of partner organizations (teachers/ members of training staff and people involved in planning project activities); developing common creative methodologies, tools and new projects on health education and training issue; promoting at local, national and transnational level the role and involvement of schools, families and community in the learning process; awakening social and institutional actors to the issue health education; increasing transnational mobility opportunities for the target group. the healthy lifestyle. We all we have designed and developed sports, we promoting healthy eating and encouraging teamwork, we promoting European citizenship and inclusion, tolerance, mutual respect, solidarity. We have used intercultural dialogue and we have brought to the fore both the diversity and unity of EU. We have developed through all our activities the 8 key competences to develop the knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes of our students who are preparing to find an appropriate place on the European labor market. The target group- middle school students from partner schools. We have worked with teachers, student families, and local community representatives. We have encouraged the participation of pupils belonging to a minority, socially disadvantaged students and pupils with special educational needs. The project has been running for 3 years. Each year, we have had a theme: BALL SPORTS GAMES, HEALTHY EATING, GAMES BOX. The activities in each school were subordinated to a chosen theme. Each year we have developed an operational plan with monthly activities, the target group involved, the means of realization, the evaluation methods, the final products, the dissemination methods, the implementation period, the financing fees, the activities responsible. We have had common activities and local activities. They were chosen by each partner school. The goals of the activities were to achieve the major objectives of the project. Every year we have had 3 international meetings. We also had 3 learning activities. Students and their teachers participated in teaching lessons and produced materials produced as active participants. In the category of intellectual products we have developed 2 methodological guides that describe formal and non-formal didactic activities that contribute to the development of a healthy lifestyle. These guides are in English. The first guide was made after the first year of the project, and the second guide was made after the second year of the project. The first describes the sport and the second describes the activities that promote a healthy diet. After the first year and after the second year of the project we organized an international workshop with the participation of other local community and other schools interested into the project. Workshops are multiplier project events. Other project products: Into the first year of the project: a calendar of famous athletes in the partner countries, a sports dictionary, a film about the organization of learning in the first year of the project. In the second year: a magazine (dairy products, fruits, vegetables, meals). In III year: a book about table games (chess, rummy, scrabble, dominoes, puzzle games, pawns); We have described games, school contests. We have created posters about these games (used by each partner to popularize school competitions organized within the project). All partners have been working on the above mentioned products. The project was presented on the school's web sites, in the professional meetings of teachers and students, in the exhibitions with the project's products. Each international activity is presented in short films posted on the project site. The workshops were organized by the coordinator. The logo and design of the mascot were chosen by negotiation at the first meeting of the project. The evaluation of the projects was done using the initial and final questionnaires, participating in the MADE FOR EUROPE competition. In the coordinating country, a regional symposium (Formal Evaluation Strategies in Erasmus + projects) will be held after the project is completed. Longer-term benefits- the good practices, the innovative methods of teaching and experiences, the learn foreign languages, to discover other cultures and religions. This had a positive impact among the local communities and will promote healthy lifestyle.

The aim of the ACT GREEN Erasmus+ project is to get students aged 9 to 12 to understand the impact of human activity on the balance of nature and to make them use more practices supporting sustainable development. The second goal of the project is to develop participatory education methods and, as a result, enhance pupils’ self-esteem, sense of appreciation, school motivation and social skills. When these goals are achieved, pupils become socially active actors, which for its part reduces the risk of exclusion. The project includes two schools from Finland and one from Romania, Greece, Italy and Portugal. The most prominent results of the project are developing pupil centered lesson plans and producing ideas for sustainable development in educational establishments. We hope our project raises inspiration and develops and processes our products forward.

The project '' Our heritage is our treasure'' is school partnership in which six countries, Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal have worked together on exploring our European cultural heritage, traditions and customs. During the project time, partners have compared their traditions, found differences and similarities, found diversity in European unity. That was the main objective of the project. In other words, the main objective was acquisition of cultural awareness competence which is a crucial element in understanding different cultures and ability to view and shape the world with a sense of identity that respects others. Young people and pupils should be familiar with the value of their past and the treasure in variety of cultures. Participation in short-term exchange of group of pupils has certainly helped pupils develop and improve cultural awareness competences. Other objective we have achieved is related to learning languages. Learning languages and multilingualism have essential role among the skills because languages open many possibilites for people and remove barriers to participation in European education and training. During project time, all participants have improved their English language skills and learn basics of all partners' languages which motivated and opened the door to future studying of certain language. During the project time we have achieved the objective related to strengthening the profile(s) of the teaching profession. Teachers have gained certain knowledge and improved their competences while participating on Learning Teaching Training activities: they have improved their English language skills and learned basics of partners languages, improved ICT skills ( WEB 2.0 tools, educational tools, communication tools, cloud storage methods, webpage designs, eTwinning), learned about CLIL, learned about methods of using photography in classroom, learned about and compared educational systems in partners' countries. During project time there were 4 Learning Teaching Training sessions, 1 only short- term joint staff training event, 3 included both short- term joint staff training events and short-term exchange of group of pupils. Due to COVID-19 situation 2 Learning Teaching Training sessions were cancelled. There were 2 teachers participating in each short- term joint staff training event from each country, plus host teachers form certain school. For short-term exchange of group of pupils, there were 3 pupils from each country travelling (excluding Cyprus and Greece) accompanied by 1 teacher from that particular school. The age of pupils were from 12 to 15. Cypriot and Greece partner were not travelling with pupils due to the age of their pupils which was younger than in other partner schools. In numbers that means that the plan was that 72 teachers and 36 pupils travel but due to COVID-19 49 teachers and 27 pupils have travelled.Besides mobilities, other pupils and teachers in each school have also worked on project activities through the whole project time. Basically, whole schools were involved in the project, which means more than 2000 teachers and pupils all together have participated in the project.Teachers have developed their skills related to: ICT tool, eTwinning, WEB 2.0 tools, photography, Interactive Whiteboards, CLIL, handicrafts, museum education. All mentioned topics have had examples and practical exercises related to culture and traditions. During meeting, pupils have worked in transnational groups and explored famous musicians, artists, sports people, Oscar and Nobel winners, they have illustrated traditional songs and translated them in partners' languages + English, created audio dictionary with basic words in all languages, they have visited museums and have had activities there.Additionally, pupils in each partner school have worked on different activities related to cultural heritage: logo, Let's meet each other, mascot of the project, photography, postcards, World Heritage Sites, traditional clothes, games, instruments, legends, special days. In 2 year time we have produced collections of quizzes, photographs and postcards; presentations about our countries and educational systems, World Heritage Sites, famous people; booklets about traditional clothes, instruments, games, legends, special days; traditional cookbook; multilingual dictionary; collection of vocabulary games; collection of illustrated traditional songs from each partners' country. All product are available on our twinspace, blog and Facebook page.The project has broadened cultural awareness competence, improved English language knowledge, motivated pupils and teachers to learn other languages, improved digital skills, made the use of eTwinning more popular, exchanged didactic materials and ideas, made friends between our schools and continued the friendship after the end of the project.
