    Name: 4 Creativities

    The main idea of the 4 Creativities project is to create a unique innovative educational tool to support teachers in their daily activities to provide high quality of teaching and present contemporary learning opportunities to their students.

    The project is focused on the development and improvement of four different types of creativity, namely: mathematical creativity, linguistic creativity, scientific creativity and artistic creativity.

    The aim of 4 Creativities project is to improve the teachers’ abilities to generate a creative education, leading to the creation of students who are able to think, analyse and solve daily problems.

    By improving the teaching practice we aim to enrich the current environment in schools in Europe by means of incorporating new methodologies, experiences and knowledge in the formal educational system.

    Through the project activities we will promote the active involvement of all students in the classroom. The project results are aimed to be used by teachers working with with 10 to 12 years old students, promoting their motivation and creativity as a fundamental ability to develop students in this age.

      • A compendium of 24 creative portfolios (activities) with descriptions of activities which will be piloted and implemented in the classroom, with the aim to boost the interest and motivation of students to learn and acquire life long learning skills. The portfolios will be grouped into four main categories, each one corresponding to the four creativities.

    Name: DROP-IN

    Dropping out of school is a real social issue. More than 1 out of 10 young people in EU are school dropouts. Indeed, unemployment amongst young dropouts exceeds 40%. The EU has made the fight against dropping out one of its priorities and aims at reducing the drop-out rate to less than 10% by 2020.

    This is what DROP’IN proposes: Formal and non-formal education must meet in order to fight against ESL and to motivate the pupils: creating an innovation by exploiting these two complementary environments. We mean by these motivating youngsters who dropped out, so they can go back to school and become again actor in their learning process.

    In practical terms, this includes the introduction of non-formal methods in schools thanks to a partnership between associations, municipalities, universities, parents and schools where teachers and non-formal education experts lead innovation together and collaborate at each step of the project.

    The transnational dimension of the project is essential: early school leaving is a reality in the partner countries where policies and experimentations are being implemented in order to reduce the ESL rate. The partnership allows an experimentation in various contexts to provide a suitable solution to European realities (rural environment, urban environment, migrant students...)

    GOALS:

    • To struggle against schools ‘dropping-out;
    • To fight against unemployment due to this issue;
    • To motivate youngsters to become actors in the society and to give them self-confidence;
    • To create a strong relationship between teachers and pupils in order to motivate them and create a feeling of confidence.
     

    General objectives:

      • To collect non-formal education techniques that can be used in schools;
      • To transfer knowledge and know-how from experts to teachers;
      • To strengthen the capacity of teachers to integrate non-formal activities into their professional environment.

    Specific objectives:

    • To create a partnership between associations, municipalities, universities, parents and schools. The goal is to create the ability of bringing together and involving the educational community;
    • To make an inventory of the training needs for teachers;
    • To give the possibility to the teachers to participate in a training using only non-formal education methods;

    Name: Reinforcing Educator's Competences for Counselling and Motivation

    According to Eurostat 20.6% of youths in Europe are unemployed (4.9% long-term) and the percentage of ESL and NEETS is equal – by 11.5%. One of the main reasons for their status is that they have not received proper career guidance and good motivation by their educators mainly because they lack knowledge, skills and adequate tools.

    Project aims to provide educators with new professional skills and knowledge so they increase their qualifications by delivering career counselling. Rather than rely on traditional and unified scattered educational methods and tools, partners aim to provide a new integrated learning methodology with tools and methods for career counselling. Educators will be stimulated in terms of the development of their own training strategies and ideas for career counselling focusing on the concrete needs of their students rather than using already prepared tools which are general and not particular.

    The innovation in this strategic partnership focuses on the empowerment of educators with variety of content and at the same time oriented to the national peculiarities of each partner country educational framework for career counselling. The elaborated integrated learning methodology and e-plaftorm for career guidance will focus on the basic principles and professional requirements in the sphere while at the same time will cover the national priorities for each partner country and personal perspective of the educator.

     

    The project will pursue the following objectives:

    • To collect learning and teaching methodologies and pedagogical approaches in the sphere of career guidance at schools (CC box)
    • To test, adapt and implement innovative practices that can provide knowledge, skills and competences (attitudes)  professionals will need in their work as career advisors
    • To develop an integrated learning methodology with tools and methods that ensures motivation, coaching and support for career counselling
    • To train professionals new IT and professional skills and knowledge on career guidance so they increase their qualifications and foster quality improvement

    projectslogo.UP2BName: UP2B - Boosting Up School Education towards European Citizenship and Labour Market Inclusion

    Early school leaving (ESL) is a multi-faced and complex problem caused by mixture of personal, social, economic, education or family-related reasons. Schools play an important role in addressing ESL but they cannot and should not work in isolation. There is a need to adopt a more flexible approach and to combine the forces of various stakeholders in the process of reducing ESL at EU level – students, parents, teachers and pedagogical staff, business sector and labour market operators, policy makers and non-formal education institutions.

    UP2B objectives are:
    -To enhance school attractiveness, diminishing rates of demotivation and absence and rates of ESL
    -To facilitate the relationship and the transition between school and the labour market
    -To increase students’ sense of citizenship by generating awareness about the labour market
    -To increase the sense of European Citizenship and its core values of equity, namely concerning Gender, Minorities and Human Rights, as fundamental Educational aspects

    Target groups:
    • Students 12-16 y.o.
    • Teachers, trainers, pedagogical staff
    • School communities (managers, administrative staff; educational councellors; parents)
    • Operators on the labour market

     

    • An online platform of pedagogical resources to be fed and used by teachers

    • A Manual that will highlight the relationship between multiple school subjects and a set of professions

    • A Compendium with pedagogical tools related to the Citizenship and the Labour Market – short, practical and attractive activities aiming to increase the motivation and participation of the students

    • An Online Compendium - ready-made digital activities to boost up the classroom environment
