"""Better Schools for Better Future"""

Description

"Life today is changing at an extremely rapid pace due to the new technologies and the contemporary socio-economic conditions. In order to respond to these changes, education institutions also need to change themselves in a timely manner to provide their students with adequate school preparation which in turn, will build them as young professionals highly competitive on the European labor market. This requires the introduction of new pedagogical training methods as well as ICT solutions in the learning process.In order to accelerate the adaptation processes to the new realities, three schools from Bulgaria (Profesionalna gimnaziya po transport I agrarni tehnologii ""N.Y.Vapcarov""), Italy (Istituto Tecnico Industriale L. da Vinci) and the UK (Sir John Hunt Community Sports College), each experienced in the respective pedagogical field, join hands and form a partnership within which they will exchange good teaching practices in the following areas:1)Implementation of ICT in the teaching process and development of digital competences2)Application of creative learning methods3)Inclusive teaching approaches for working with students from vulnerable groups (ethnic minorities, refugees)The main objective of the project is to enhance the quality of the training offered by the three schools, complementing it with new teaching methods reflecting the contemporary socio-economic realities. In this way, the young learners will be more prepared for the real life, more competitive on the labor market and will find better professional realization after their graduation.In line with this objective are the specific objectives of the project:1) creating a more attractive and more practical learning process2) enhancing the linguistic and digital competences of teachers and students3) strengthening the profile of the teaching profession by supporting teachers to provide high quality education and adopting new teaching methods and tools4) reducing the number of early school leavers5) promoting the European cooperation in the field of education and exchange.These goals will be achieved through 12 learning teaching training events (6 for teachers and 6 for students), in which the three partner organizations will exchange pedagogical experience and good practices in the area where they have proven expertise. The learning teaching training events will be aimed at both teachers and students in order to demonstrate better and from different perspective the new pedagogical training methods. Thus, the teachers' groups will observe, discuss and exchange ideas and good practices while and those of the students will test the effectiveness of the new learning/teaching approaches in a real educational environment.The events will be held as exchanges on a rotation basis in the three countries - Bulgaria, Italy and the UK - one short-term joint staff training event and one short-term exchange of group of pupils will be held simultaneously between one sending and one host organisation. The training methods that will be used during these events will be in the form of presentations, workshops, group discussions, simulations, case-studies, etc.The main groups of participants from the 3 partner organisations who will take part in the project will be the work teams of each of the schools that will administer and manage it, 20 teachers, 30 students and 6 accompanying persons who will be involved in the planned mobilities.Upon the completion of each event, the participants in it will receive a Europass Mobility Certificate to certify the knowledge, the competences and the experience gained.The expected results from the implementation of the project are:- improved language and digital competences of the participated teachers and students to work with the new ICT in the learning process - multimedia, interactive boards, virtual labs, 3D simulations- taken steps towards implementation of the latest ICT in the learning process- adopted creative teaching methods (learning games, role-play, visual associations, design thinking) as well as those for work with students from vulnerable groups (representatives of ethnic minorities and refugees) by the participated teachers and their subsequent implementation in the teaching activities- increased interest of the students from the three participating schools to the learning process- reduction of the early drop-outs after the first year of the project in the 3 participating schools by min.10% - developed ready-to-use pedagogical materials - presentations, articles, interactive tasks, etc. - on project topics and their distribution among other schools in Europe.The exchange of good learning practices and the implementation of innovative learning approaches will contribute to the updating of the learning process in the three schools, and thus benefiting not only the direct participants, but also current and future teachers and students, thereby achieving sustainability project results."
