Four schools from two different countries will be part of the “Societies, Environment and Risks” (S.E.R) project. Each school has various socio-economic and environmental contexts. Schools from the same country will make up a binomial (collège-lycée) in the same school area. All the participants face particular situations (geographical isolation as well as economic, social, cultural and educational difficulties).This project has several aims: reinforcing all the participants’ basic skills and knowledge (languages, ICT, thematic…), developing social competences (teamwork, interculturalism), education on citizenship (local and European). Finally, the project has an organizational aim as it will enable to reinforce the connection between schools in the same educational area.More than one hundred pupils, most of them with fewer opportunities, and around fifteen teachers will take part in the project. They will work during classes or club sessions so that the project will involve various kinds of pupils. On the whole, the project will enable the implementation of active teaching methods aiming at reinforcing the participants’ autonomy and at taking into account their heterogeneity. At the beginning of each school year, the short-term joint staff training event will enable to define the concepts, the aims and the actions to take with pupils. During this two-year project, participants will do research on the Man-environment relation theme from the daily point of view (ex: pollution) and this will lead to local civic actions; as well as from the more specific and rare point of view of technological risks (year 1) and natural risks (year 2). This research work will lead to synthesis productions (slide show, exhibition, artistic or scientific production) which will be different according to each school’s opportunities (age group, means, competences…). At the end of each school year, the short-term exchange of groups of pupils will enable the organization of a visible collective action (such as a flashmob) that pupils will prepare during the meeting week.Collaboration is another word that sums up well this project. Indeed, all the results will be posted on the eTwinning platform so that partners can do their research in common. The European platform will therefore be the favoured place for virtual exchanges so as to encourage interaction between all the people involved in the project. It will also promote connection. Collaborating work will create on the one hand a European connection between partners that could encourage them to take part into other future European projects, and on the other hand a connection between the schools from the same school area. All these important facts will give a concrete dimension to learning foreign languages and will give rise to motivation. Within the context of the partner schools, this project will offer a real European broadening which will enable to tackle cultural and social isolation, and it will provide a dynamic to tackle early school leaving. This project represents an undeniable advantage for all the participants.

In recent years, as a school, we have been part of a project group consisting of schools from France, Denmark, Italy and Spain. Together we have carried out work to give students cultural and scientific experiences in the various project weeks. The pupils stayed in host families, so they were immersed in the culture of the country concerned. The overarching theme was living on Mars. We have divided the three years into three main themes. Year 1: Astronomy, Year 2: Sustainability and year 3: Water. Within these themes, project weeks were organized in which students attended workshops that included assignments for these themes. In addition, theme-specific assignments were carried out at the various schools for each exchange week. As a result, not only the students who participated in the exchange had an instructive experience, but also the students who were not selected. The goals of the project were:- Improving the skills in IT- Awerness of cultural diversity- Acceptance of social diversityAll goals were achieved by the students who participated during these project weeks. The different schools are called this form. These have not changed during the project period

"<< Objectives >>With this project, based on one of the European Union 2020 targets"" to contribute to the development of institutional capacity and quality by ensuring transnational cooperation between educational institutions and their stakeholders.""We will develop collaborations with educational institutions.The main aim of our project is to learn different, modern and digital teaching techniques and to use technology effectively in the Foreign Language lessons.We also want to gain a European perspective.<< Implementation >>We will focus on 4 basic skills in foreign language, reading,writing,listening and speaking.We will work on podcasts,poems, Actionbound web 2.0 tool treasure hunt and short stories as a tool for teaching English.We will do workshops,conferences,cultural visits,Quizizz competition and we will learn useful web 2.0 tools.For each skill, students will use different collaborative and creative web 2.0 tools. Thus, they both will learn and practice English with the help of the technology.<< Results >>We expect to:-improve instructors' e-skills and the adoption of collaborative learning techniques-encourage students' active and creative participation in the learning process through the use of ICT in foreign language-use a learning outcomes-based approach that is also appropriate for low-skilled students-learn how to use tools to foster creativity and innovation by gaining new skills to produce and manage multimedia instructional resources-provide training and experience exchange"
