Primary schools open to community resources, communities more active in primary education, this is the way education for the younger generations of the 21st century should look like. At the end of over two and half years of joint work, this has also been the effort of the D’BASKET project. Looking at the dynamics of education of the future, where connected learning between the school, private and social dimensions takes place, the project started a process, which will hopefully continue, of creating a more “structural” cooperation between schools and other education providers, and actors (such as local authorities) to leverage the potential of learning basic and transversal skills by frequent interaction and exchange between the “world” of the school and the “world” outside in the community. Such interaction aims at providing an inclusive education, where formal and non-formal education support lifelong guidance for future educational choices of pupils and their empowerment as citizens. Through the adaptation of new and effective interdisciplinary educational methods developed in other external experiences for education of pupils aged 10-14 years old, D’BASKET addresses the need for a more diverse and inclusive education, underachievement in the basic skills through more effective, innovative teaching methods and the upskilling of teaching professions. The project’s general objective has been to promote and share - through good and innovative practice and joint development - interdisciplinary educational methods and paths that foster basic and transversal skills through entrepreneurial attitudes and the appraisal of social, linguistic and cultural diversity, in order to improve teachers’ competences to work with diversified learners and address low achievement and exclusion from an early stage of education.D’Basket managed to achieve such objective by bringing together for the first time three primary schools the IC Romolo Onor in San Donà (VE-Italy), the primary school Veli Vhr of Pula (HR), and the primary school Antona Ukmarja of Koper (SLO), the 3 respective municipalities, 3 local NGOs: Associazione 2050, KIP PiNa, the Foundation for Partnership and Civil Society Development, and the EU network Tandem Plus.Following the roadmap foreseen by the methodological approach, we have developed the following activities and outputs:D’BASKET KNOWLEDGE TOOLKIT Reflected and analyzed the partnership’s existing pedagogical methods (formal, non-formal and based on successful practice in Europe), the teachers’ knowledge and attitude towards non-formal education and the “personality” of the students. THE D’BASKET ACTIVITIES AND PATHWAYS: The deliverables, (Output 2-3-4) are concrete sets of methodological and pedagogical material and include the learning outcomes, the link to statutory subjects for the development of basic skills, as well as tools to be used, such as training exercises, multimedia material and expert experiences and tips. 2 Joint staff training have allowed to share the methodologies with a group of teachers. Translation of the toolkit has been done in Italian and Croatian as well as in English.The multilingual online Resource Centre (IO6) contains, as a point of entry of the D’Basket experience, all the deliverables and tools, results of joint activities such as joint staff training and mobilities.The testing of the 3 D’BASKET pathways in each country has taken place in the last 18 months of the project, and an evaluation report has been delivered. Part of the testing was the organization of three D’Basket camps (three short-term pupils’ mobility) to carry out some specific activities with groups of pupils coming from the three schools to test and appraise the EU added value of the pathways. The final phase consisted in the creation of ad hoc plans (In Italy and Croatia) and agreements at local level to streamline the results of the D’BASKET pathways into school curricula and education policy of municipalities in the concerned area. Dissemination events have taken place in Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. Over 350 pupils and 21 teachers have been involved directly in the project. Over 1000 have been involved in the contest for the project's logo and in dissemination activities. Additional students from other schools in San Donà (about 60) have been involved in workshops organized by the Municipality. In Italy, the D’Basket ERASMUS + week will be part of the PTOF (piano Triennale dell’offerta formativa) and the municipality has made available the tools for all the primary/lower secondary school of the city, as well it has committed to promoting the project’s rationale in all the area. Teachers involved have created strong ties beyond borders and are collaborating and planning further mobility and transnational actions.
