"Project ""Creating spaces for creativity - SPACES"" will be implemented by six partners from five countries: Foundation of Education Development SPATIA (NGO, Poland), IX Liceum Ogólnokształcące im. Wisławy Szymborskiej w Sosnowcu (school, Poland), Malatya Bilim Ve Sanat Merkezi (educational centre, Turkey), Edmund Rice College (school, Ireland), Escola Básica e Secundária Padre Manuel Álvares (school, Portugal), CulturePolis (NGO, Greece).Its main objective is supporting the development of creativity of students and teachers / educators through the exchange and dissemination of good practices and the creation of 3 intellectual outputs by 6 partners of the cross-sector consortium in the period from 01/04/2021 - 31/03/2023.Detailed objectives:- building a network of cooperation between 6 organizations diverse in terms of culture, competence, sector and experience, which will allow for the synergy effect;- strengthening cooperation between project partners, including between organizations operating in the field of formal, informal and non-formal education;- increasing students' knowledge of how to learn creatively;- increasing educators and teachers' knowledge of how to teach creatively;- increasing students' awareness of appreciating culture and nature as sources of inspiration for work and study;- developing the results of intellectual work that will contribute to the creation of a friendly, learning space in educational institutions.The project consortium will work out 3 intellectual outputs:1) How to learn creatively? - handbook for secondary schools students2) How to teach creatively? - handbook for teachers and educators3) How to build creative space? - teaching materials, recommendations.In the project there are also planned short staff joint training events and dissemination workshop in all participating countries. The project aims to contribute to the use of innovative tools and novel didactic methods in education (formal and informal), thus improving its overall quality and relevance. Achieving this goal will involve international experience and various profiles of involved institutions. The project aims to contribute to the creation of a friendly space for the development of creative thinking skills and quick adaptation through the exchange of experiences and good practices in this area between non-governmental organizations, educational institutions and organizations from the cultural and creative sector that deals with formal, informal and non-formal education. The aim of the consortium is also to develop international recommendations and solutions that will contribute to a permanent increase in the skills of independent, reflective and creative thinking among young people (secondary school students), who will soon enter the labor market and will face the choice of a career path. It will be possible thanks to supporting educators and youth workers in using the tools and methods of creative learning.Modernization and internationalization processes will strengthen the capacity building. The project's idea supports innovation and new educational solutions through international partnerships and inter- and transdisciplinary approaches. The project assumes that the created course will be universal, and the results of intellectual work will be available in English and in the partners' national languages. Thanks to the involvement of partners from different countries and various organizations, the results of the project will have an international dimension and can be used not only in the countries of the project partners, but also by educators from other EU countries. International cooperation will ensure the multicultural nature of the exchange of good practices, taking into account the experiences in the field of formal, informal and non-formal education of organizations from different regions of Europe."

"<< Background >>The current COVID-19 crisis has greatly accelerated the need for modernisation and digital transformation of education across Europe. 6 partners from 6 countries; AGIFODENT-Asociacion Granadina para la informacion, formacion y desarrollo de las nuevas tecnologias (NGO-educational organization, Spain) Malatya Bilim ve Sanat Merkezi (school/secondary level), SISAMRAVENNA (NGO-culture and art center,Italy), The Academy for International Science and Research (AISR) (School Institute – Vocational training - Ireland), Newark School (school / secondary level, Malta),The Lithuanian National Museum of Art (Lithuania), we have collaborated to find out innovative teaching methods to enhance the key competences of students those are useful in a world where self- sufficient and life long learning is essential. Then we come up with ""Art-Technology-Creativity For All"" project. The project is addressed to secondary school level students and young learners.A needs analysis was carried out during the initial time. Each partner applied a questionnaire to their staff which includes:-How the teachers/ lecturers/ trainers perceive and understand creativity? -What do they do to foster creativity through their teaching?-Do they use art to foster creativity?-How to be inclusive in education and create opportunities for everyone?-What kind of context and support are necessary for teachers to foster creativity in their learners?-Should they cooperate to be more effective? This examination of teachers' opinions on creativity shows that teachers have an encompassing view of creativity. %95 of teachers believe that creativity can be applied to every domain of knowledge and to every school subject and can be integrated with arts, music, drama and artistic performance. Everybody derserves to get access the best facilities to improve themselves.Needs:Project is derived from the demand for;*creating new spaces for art and social inclusion based approaches to boost creativity.*reinforcing the development of key competences.*Promoting social and education inclusion through the creative arts*learning about diverse cultures by meeting art styles of them from past until today. *Building up a comprehensive approach to multiple languages learning and teaching*Creating new opportunities for teachers to sustain their professional developments*Modernising education by effective usage digital tech for teaching-learning. *creating innovative curricula and educational methodsBy the arts we are referring to all types of art—visual, film, music design, acting. In this regard,we want to create a""Butterfly Effect""on our pupils by awaking awareness of power of art in learning and discover their existing potential and improve it more. Arts enhances creativity, which is crucial for innovation and adaptation. Creative people have the ability to see multiple solutions, employ original thoughts, and use their imagination. Arts promotes these skills, encouraging unique responses and diverse ways of looking at things in a non-formal learning context.As the partnership we believe in ‘Anything is Possible’ through the arts for everyone. All types of partners need to bring social inclusion approach to their profile of teaching.<< Objectives >>The project aims to contribute to the use of innovative tools and novel didactic methods in education (formal and informal), thus improving its overall quality and relevance.
