"Better Teaching and Learning (BTL) is a Project to be carried out under Key action 2, Ka229, School Exchange Partnerships of erasmus+ programme with the cooperation of 6 partners from 6 different countries (Slovenia, Romania, Italy, Turkey, Greece and Spain).The world is developing and Life is changing rapidly. New generations need new Teaching/Learning Methods because the interests, needs, priorities, environements, expectations of parents, pupils and the societies are also changing rapidly. The current quality of education is not enough if it is not renewed. Educational institutions are responsible for children’s comprehensive, innovative, progressive education which help the child to know himself, the World and life better. However, the mere theoretical background for a small child is much less affective than some correlation, feeling and personal experience. Most children are naturally interested and motivated to do something when they can associate certain information with certain of their experiences and real situations. Then it wakes up the inner scientist and researcher. According to the statistics of the questionnaires and researchs in partner schools, 74% of the children feels bored and unmotivated to learning during lessons or activities not allowing them to act, think, perform, enjoy and create. Also 81% of the children feel more motivated, happy, self-confident, self-esteemed and ready to share their experiences with parents and peers when they can move, perform, create and enjoy. One thing is clear for the educators of early childhood that The best learning is when you feel and experience everything by yourself. The question is: How to teach a child better by meeting his/her expectations in a rapidly changing situation? There are a lot of theory in every country but the educators are still lack of practical experience and knowledge, the organizations are lack information of how to adapt new things in the lowest educational level - kindergarden and pre-primary school classes. The favoured approaches like Learning by doing, Experiential learning, STEAM and Task Based Learnings allow students to absorb knowledge through real life experiences. Thanks to BTL, we will excange of good practices in partner schools about combining the favoured ""Teaching/Learning Approaches and Elements"" in school environment through the activities of the project covering six main areas: ""Entrepreneurship"", ""Media literacy"", ""STEM"", ""Nature and the Environment"" , ""Healthy lifestyle"" and ""Personal Affairs"". Selected areas of the project will help to provide for experiential education guidelines, adapt existing indoor and outdoor spaces for better teaching/learning, and create new methodologies to encourage children's curiosity, creativity, responsibility, entrepreneurial skill and personal developement.The main idea of this Project is to improve the education level in each partner school by improving the participants' , especially teachers, Professional knowledge and capacity. While reaching this aim, BTL is aiming to combine the favoured elements of Early Childhood (3-8 age) such as "" Experiments"", ""Research"", ""Games"", ""STEAM"" and ""Real life experience practices"" with recently favoured topics, such as ""Entrepreneurship"", ""Media literacy"", ""STEM"", ""Nature and the Environment"" , ""Healthy lifestyle"" and ""Personal Affairs"" that are very critical for the true developement of child's personal, cognitive, mental, physcal feautures. Thanks to BTL;We will - integrate the favoured and needed elements into curriculum and school practices.- improve the teaching capacity of teachers by making them meet with different good Exchange of practices- improve the education level in schools by making the pupils and staff meet with different applications - help pupils to have positive feautures such as ""having self-confidence, being creative, being cooperative, social, easygoing and responsible by allowing them to express themselves and use their creativity through different favoured applications during the classesWe will adjust the school environments in a new way by learning what should be done to let the pupils express themselves and use creative activities thanks to the gains of this Project.There will be decrease in the number of students having problems of isolation, lack of self-confidence, aggression, loneliness, irresponsibility, lack of motivation etc. thanks to the Exchange of good practices to be observed during the Project.As it may be seen, Our first priority is ""Developing High Quality Early Childhood Education and Care Systems"" and we will reach this aim by ""Strenghtening the profiles of teaching professions"" and while making this, We will make them meet ""New Practices in a Digital Era"".EU Comission reports state that, Although the percentage of children having Early Child Education is 95%, Problems still exists because of the differency in practices and BTL will be a solution to this problem."
