"The project ""With teen eyes"" arises after the experience carried out in the CDP Santa María de los Ángeles, in the missing subject Integrated Project, in which different social issues are already addressed, with an active approach, through the use of short films as a product final.After having had two partners in Comenius projects, the International Department of the CDP plans to establish a partnership as a coordinating center. The search for partners is carried out through the Etwinning platform and, after presenting the project in two calls, it is finally approved in the third one, in 2017. The objectives of this surgical association after a survey conducted among the students of the participating centers, where we detected that adolescents consider that their voice has to be heard, that they can contribute a lot to society, and that they believe that audiovisual language is very effective. In addition, we detect that today's youth consumes many videos on the Internet. ; - educate in entrepreneurship. In total, we have been six participating centers, all of post-compulsory secondary education, both general and professional. They have made a total of 475 students and 32 teachers involved.The activities carried out have been: - at a local level, the centers have produced short films and observed their methodological use; It should be noted that four centers have included the project in the curriculum, two not, with effects on student involvement; - At the international level, we have repeated the schedule of meetings in both courses, which has allowed us to improve some aspects in the second year. Each year, we have held two meetings, one training, in which we have addressed issues such as auditory language, techniques and performance and another in international teams (with one student per center), have produced short films. It has been completed with three coordination meetings. About 60 short films have been produced, of which we have published about 40 (for quality reasons) and a manual for the use of short films as a methodological tool. The impact has been very positive on the participants, who considered that they have improved their linguistic, digital and creative skills, and that allowed them to learn more about certain problems in the documentation phase; It also highlights the learning involved in a short film project in terms of teamwork."

The idea of the project arose on the basis of school needs in the area of development of business skills of students and pedagogical staff. Our partnership consisted of four schools – from Slovakia, Italy, Croatia and Spain.In the project, we focused on cooperation within economical subjects and on development of business skilss and competencies. The target group of the project were pedagogical staff and students of the schools, wider regional community as well as deputees of a local government and regional businnes entities.The aims of the project corresponded with priorities of the project. We developed the key competencies of students for all target groups and supported the creativity of both students and teachers. At schools, we focused on implementation of new components (CLIL, inter-subject relationships, methodology) on school educational programmes.During the realization of the project, we organized four short term student exchanges of partner schools and two short term mobilities for teachers and two mobilities that were held in virtual form. During these meetings as well as within local activities, the participants worked on formation of final project outputs.Teachers prepared a methodology for trading training companies with a proposal for the duties of individual departments and the organization of relationships in the training company. In addition to the methodology, they also prepared a competency profile of a young entrepreneur with educational outcomes for the subject training company as well as a manual for evaluating the students in a training company.Under the guidance of the teachers, students prepared a collection of business and personal letters in English. The letters were processed during joint workshops, where students exchanged business information. A dictionary of economic terms and a manual of preparation for the job interview were also prepared for the collection.An important outcome was the exchange of information on doing business in partner countries. The result of this area is a guide to the labor market of EU countries and a guide to doing business in EU countries.All the partner schools will use the results of the project within the educational proces. All the presentations, outputs and information materials acquired through the realization of the project will be used in subjects such as training companies, economics, business correspondence, geography and cultural preparation. The results of exchange experience acquired through the project will be included in school educational programmes of the schools. They will also use certain results for the projects and activities within the further and lifelong education.

In the last years antidemocratic and anti-European sentiment has increased in different countries all over Europe. The number of eurosceptic and right-wing populist members of parliament have increased among others e.g. in Germany, Greece, Estonia, Turkey and Italy, as well as the European Parliament itself, being elected by European citizens, who question the very existence of the European Union. Furthermore there has been an intensive debate in recent years about challenges like migration, digitalization and economic difficulties and how to tackle these problems.This project aims at overcoming anti-European tendencies and promoting pro-European sentiment in the near future by educating students as citizens of Europe about the importance of a unified Europe, especially in terms of peace, economy and freedom.Vocational and secondary schools from Turkey, Greece, Germany, Italy and Estland are participating in this project and are contributing to its quality by bringing in different European perspectives.Project work is overall exploring the past, present and future of the European Union, represented by the different countries. Students are first investigating the historical background that led to the formation of the European Union. The next step is to examine present-day benefits of the European Union for the students themselves, for their region and their country, as well as, current challenges, like migration, economic difficulties and the consequences of anti-European movements that led e.g. to Brexit.As a last step the students are considering future developments and possible solutions for present-day challenges, like digitalization and possible future members of the EU.The different subtopics are dealt with during short-term students exchanges in order to enable students to vividly explore the different European perspectives. Furthermore, an e-Twinning with the same topic is implemented to increase the number of participants in the project at every school, as well as, emphasizing Europe as a topic in everyday lessons, like Political Education, Ethics, History, Business economics, etc..During project work students are being encouraged to preferable create digital products like explanatory videos, online quizzes/games, audio files/podcasts, e-books, comics and cartoons, with the help of IT tools.The project is expected to raise all participants' appreciation of the achievements and benefits of a unified Europe over the past and the present, as well as, enhancing awareness of Europe's power and the need of joined European forces to tackle present-day challenges all over Europe to enable a better future of all Europeans.As a long term-benefit this project overall aims at supporting the original European idea and to strengthens Europe itself as a political institution within Europe and in a globalized world and to enable to adapt to the changing world of work in terms of digitalization.

The high numbers of early school leaving make essential a reflection on how educational systems can help in this situation. Reasons are varied: contents learned at school seem very far from student’s interests; they don’t feel protagonists of their own learning, and sometimes learning it’s not mediated by emotion. The project’s main objective is tackling early school leaving using innovative methodologies and tools so that students will find a closer and more motivating space.This project aims to increase student’s motivation by taking advantage on their interests. Students are keen on new technologies and they offer a valuable tool if properly used. Drawing connections to their real lives and using active methodologies can favor a deeper understanding and help getting students more emotionally involved. Students get implicated in their learning process by being responsible for creating quality contents built “on the shoulders” of all previous development, using critical thinking, and team working with transnational partners. They will feel more involved by sharing openly their learnings through the tools they use for communication so that others can learn as well. Project objectives are linked to the Horizon Europe program. The project involves 5 partners (Italy, Greece, Poland, Sweden and Spain), secondary schools that face similar difficulties when it comes to making students feel motivated by learning. Sweden is a novel partner in this kind of projects, which brings enrichment and a fresh view. Cultural differences between them make possible understanding the pros and cons of learning and spreading knowledge at each place.Project involves students at the age of 15-17 years old. Participation of students with educational and economic difficulties and social obstacles in the meetings will be encouraged. Activities will be scaffolded to allow all students to participate.Each meeting will study a general topic (Light, Water, Image, Air, Enviroment) and it will be analyzed from different perspectives (science, art, history, literature, ICT…). Before each meeting, the hosting partner send some preliminary activities so that students get familiar with the topic. This work will be done with all students, whether they travel or not, so that it becomes part of the curriculum of the subjects.In each of the fifth meetings there will be 6 students of each country, working in international teams, favoring communication and common learning. There will be four activities, the first three will address the topic from different perspectives. In the fourth one, students will reach conclusions and create materials a as a synthesis of the work done, for spreading knowledge, taking into account the different learning needs. A local research center will be visited, knowing their work and disseminate it.During the proposed activities different methodologies will be carried out: active methodologies and peer learning, PBL methodology (activities focus around a theme from different approaches), inquiry based learning (emphasizing the student's role in the learning process., encouraging them to explore, ask questions, and share ideas) and CLIL methodology (activities involve the development of students' language skills). We expect students will increase their motivation decreasing the early school leaving rate. Also will increase their communication, collaboration and soft skills, meaningful learning, awareness of the need to work with reliable sources and openly sharing... Teachers will benefit through exchanging teaching methods that are highly cooperative. This expands teachers' practice and increases teaching effectiveness. By opening the range of methodologies, levels and times, learning can become much more personalized, enabling students with learning difficulties to find a way forward.Participants will improve their European culture knowledge, promoting personal growth and development. The difficulties of the knowledge transmission will be analysed. Being aware of this, will let them to acquire the learning to learn competence.Schools are expected to understand, study and assimilate the new communication paths opened by new technologies to transmit knowledge. The execution and subsequent analysis of these activities will bring knowledge closer to students and their daily lives. Digital magazines, a web and a TwinSpace will be created, showing the results obtained by students that will be shared with an open access license. Materials will also be shared using the project's social networks. Any interested school will be able to apply the project methodology and make use of these results.In the long term, the results of this project will be considered for a methodological improvement in the school curriculum. It will also serve as an attempt to improve response when facing extraordinary situations, such as those recently experienced, for learning using new technologies, so that it is inclusive of all students.
