    "According to TIMMS and PISA data, many countries in the world today are experiencing difficulties in teaching mathematics. Our country, which is constantly searching for teaching mathematics, has been trying to create a mathematical policy in EU standards for years. At this point there are many successful countries in Europe. Since we can not produce sharp, innovative policies at the point of mathematics teaching, the decisions taken by the central organization can not go beyond reflexiveness. We want to be one of the world's ten largest economies, we want to produce the technology, but when we look at the PISA 2015 mathematics literacy data, we see that Turkey is 50. In addition, success in children's math test in Turkey is below the average of the OECD countries. In short, our students receive mathematical knowledge, but they do not know how to use that knowledge. Our children simply can not adapt mathematics to their everyday lives. Because they fear mathematics and find mathematics repulsive. So even a child with a high math capacity and skill is failing because of this attitude and indifference to mathematics. There are dozens of these disruptions in mathematics teaching and learning. While preparing the project, I read a related article about this topic close to 1500 pages. We can list many reasons for this failure, such as teacher and curriculum that insists on traditional teaching methods and can not update itself according to the modern age's mathematical perceptions and needs, lack of motivation of the student, negative home history of the student, effect of the negative parent profile on learning process, problem based learning. We are focused on finding schools that are in common with us in teaching social mathematics at the same time as these studies, but which are in this creative and innovative pursuit. In doing so, we looked at countries' PISA 2015 data. We searched the countries that were higher than us in order. Poland and Portugal are far ahead of our country in mathematical literacy. As success in mathematics is a requirement that covers Europe, we want to come together to meet this need as schools looking for local solutions in mathematics. In this sense, we think that it is very much worthwhile for our partners to join them. Their project experience and the offer of cooperation in the teaching of mathematics are quite motivating. When we receive grantt support, we will go a long way in teaching mathematics as 5 partner schools. Because we care about collective reasoning, consultation and cooperation. In our Slovak partner, the math motivation of the students is low and the reason for their failure depends on it. Romania is looking for more creative and innovative, didactic applications. Our students are partially motivated, the teacher is lost in the curriculum. Our students need colorful activities, math games, and different teamwork. Türkiye'de matematik başarısı yerel ve ulusal sınavlarda sürekli test ediliyor. That's why our students have a constant exam pressure. This is a barrier to learning a healthy mathematics. Our most important philosophy in this project is that ""Mathematics is not a nightmare, failure is not fate."" The aim of the project is to love children and to fill the teacher's professional infrastructure, competence and creativity. Then raise children's math motivation. To give them concrete examples rather than abstract concepts and expressions. They will understand that mathematics is part of life, embodying mathematics and making connections between mathematics and everyday life. Children are most serious while playing games. For this reason, it is a big shortcoming not to use the method of play in mathematics teaching. We want to have a training fire starting from our own school and creating a mathematical awareness. Our goal is to remove the obstacles between the child and the mathematics offered by the curriculum, making math children love it. It is to ensure that our teachers are updated with the skills of this century. Another goal is to improve our readership so that our students can have a healthy learning. It is to create a joint mathematics program with the project countries, to implement this program as a pilot during the project and to monitor the results at the class level. It is to spread the project together with partner countries and to continue in different schools even if the process is over."

    The project had as a partnership five schools of PT, IT, RO, GR, TR, Portugal was the coordinating country and the age group of students focused on the 12-17years.The starting point for the project were the problems of social exclusion experienced in partner countries and gaps in students' behavoiral and social skills. Evaluating the problems in each school we conclude the need to address gaps in social inclusion, basic skills, parental support skills and socioeconomic needs. In order to reach the inclusion objectives, new cooperative and inclusive teaching strategies and methods were studied and implemented in schools, during classes and during free time.The strategies and methods covered have brought many ideas to put into practice and have proved a real alternative in solving problems in schools. At the same time, the observation of good practices during the mobilities also allowed them to be transferred to the realities of the other partner schools.Each school studied and applied one of the new methods, evaluated and disseminated practices and results. In each mobility it was possible to present and discuss methods and transfer practices from one school to another. Thus, at the end of the project five methods of cooperative and inclusive teaching that could be applied in schools were studied, applied and discussed.GOALS- to promote the inclusion of pupils, those lacking basic skills, risk of abandonment, with special needs, helping to promote their integration into regular education and society.- implement new strategies to overcome social exclusion, lack of basic skills and school dropout- to develop new methods in the field of social and emotional development of students, especially students with special educational needs.- give teachers different methods of education and share good practices.These objectives were largely achieved, with great success in the changes of behaviors and acquisition of competences on the part of the students and introduction of new strategies in the teaching practices.NUMBER AND PROFILE OF PARTICIPANTSStudents / young people: More students than expected participated actively in the project. Countries such as Portugal, România and Italy had a great participation, so we can say that about 240 students participated in the project and about 1,200 influenced by the actions of the project. indirect.Teachers / Adults: From the planned teams of 5 teachers participated actively in higher numbers in countries such as Portugal, Italy and Romania. 40 teachers participated actively in the teams. About 150 teachers / adults will have been indirectly touched by the project.Administrative staff: At least the principal and other administrative of each school participated in the project, approximately 36 administrative staff were involved in the project.Families: Also in families the number involved in the project was higher than expected. Countries such as Portugal and Romania had a large participation of the families, 350 members of the families participated, contributing to the knowledge of the culture and traditions of their countries. It should be noted that the Portuguese school was the first time it was sent and received students, with great success and participation of families.Local community: The participation of the local community in each country was also relevant. From the local press that helped disseminate project actions (newspapers and in some countries local television), the municipalities that received the delegations and cede local and logistics, representatives from the Ministries of Education and local Associations that participated in project actions and helped in the dissemination of it.RESULTS AND IMPACT: Through our project, the five partners have created tangible and intangible results in the short and long term and have achieved the greatest possible impact for future educational and political projects and processes, such as getting students to overcome their lack of self-esteem , to gain personal and social skills, to work on their capacities for tolerance and to gain more competences on European citizenship. Students with special educational needs were largely involved in the project, overcoming barriers, gaining more standardized skills and teaching others to overcome fears. Schools were endowed with new strategies, methods and good practices and were able to extend their internationalization. Facebook group, website, articles, brochures, manuals, newsletters provided continuous access to general information on project activities, progress and results. In this way it is possible to multiply our success and cultivate effective partnerships among teachers, educators and community organizations.
