"CONTEXT/BACKGROUND Globalisation and modernisation are creating an increasingly diverse and interconnected world. To be active member of this world, individuals need to master changing technologies and to make sense of large amounts of available information. They also face collective challenges as societies – such as balancing economic growth with environmental sustainability, and prosperity with social equity. At the same time, competences are also a crucial factor in the ways that individuals help shape the world itself, not just to cope with it. OBJECTIVES Our project goal was to foster in students the required skills and abilities to ""decode"", cope with and improve the society around them: individual competences are a fundamental key for the success both of individuals and of the entire society. The role of the school system is therefore crucial in such phase: as individual competences are needed to help accomplish collective goals, the enhancement of key competences needs to be guided by an understanding of shared values of which teachers must be responsible and active agents. PROFILE OF PARTICIPANTS The international dimension of DE.CO.D.E. represented an added value: colleagues from different parts of Europe worked cooperatively to reinforce the young human capital that is supposed to play a critical role in the future European economic, social and political performance. Most involved teachers have had experience in previous Erasmus+, so each of them brought their expertise for the final success; the teachers who were at their first experience were tutored by the expert ones, in a climate of international and mutual exchange of good practices. If the total mobilities were 185 (131 pupils/54 teachers), the overall number of involved people was much higher because even non-travelling students and teachers were involved in curricular and extracurricular activities, as a preparatory phase to each mobility and associated outcomes. ACTIVITIES/METHODOLOGY All schools and teachers worked transversally on the development of the 8 competences, so the innovative aspect of the project was given mostly by the methodology we used, not from the topic itself: the achievement of the transversal long-life competencies was guaranteed by the direct involvement of students, who became active and creative subjects themselves while mind-mapping, planning and carrying out activities in a cooperative and flipped environment. Students took part to create a set of ACTIVITIES which were carried out both before and during each mobility (including budget management and fund raising activities to develop sense of entrepreneurship): 1 “Listen to me""(repeated at each mobility) 2 “Surfing the net, surfing the history” 3 “My Erasmus travel experience”(repeated at each mobility) 4 ""A history of migration: yesterday and today"" 5 ""What colour are you?” 6 “Our shared cultural heritage"" 7 “The digital citizen: the 9 Ps"" 8 ""Cyber-education” 9 ""Let's STEM ourselves"" 10 ""I can create business"" 11 ""Budget Report"" 12 ""Gadget Report"" 13 ""Activity Report"" The entire project was carried out by dividing tasks and respecting schedules under the supervision of the coordinating school; all activities were regularly monitored and assessed. RESULTS/IMPACT The project furnished a framework of key competencies consisting of a set of specific competencies, bound together in an integrated approach. In a society where individuals are expected to be adaptive but also innovative, creative, self-directed and self-motivated, the DE.CO.D.E. went beyond the basic reproduction of accumulated knowledge: all activities aimed as a final result at involving a mobilisation of cognitive and practical skills, creative abilities and other psychosocial resources such as attitudes, motivation and values. At the centre of our planned activities was the promotion of our students' ability to think for themselves as an expression of moral and intellectual maturity, and to take responsibility for their learning and for their actions, for both their present and for future life. LONG TERM BENEFITS All the project results have become part of our curricula, to be exploited as OERs by all schools' staff (the official website will remain active for 3 years after the project end). If the short term impact will be measured while developing the project, the long term impact will need to be monitored, under the supervision of the coordinating school, for 3 years after finishing activities(in line with the dissemination plan).The potential long term benefits will be: - deeper understanding of the necessity of 8 competences within a lifelong learning perspective - a change of mindset in involved participants, resulting in a greater awareness and willingness to give one's contribution to improve the European society as active citizens on the move - higher school visibility, internationalization and desire to take part to future Erasmus+."

This project aims to address importance of taking action on the Sustainable Development Goals.They are a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity. In a globalized world, where the changes in economic and natural resources can be felt halfway around the globe, our challenges are becoming more intertwined with the systems that connect us all. All Society needs a new approach to solve future problems. The school system needs to adopt innovation and creative thinking to prepare students of the future. Creativity and innovation are considered to be at the heart of successful strategies adopted by modern educational systems. Developing global active citizens who are passionate about caring for others and our world is essential for them to be members of our society. Students will grow up to be adults in an increasingly interconnected and multicultural society. They need to be aware of cultural norms and differences around the world so that they can succeed and thrive. Opportunity to work on an international level with these initiatives gives students an insight vision into issues that exist around the world so they can truly understand the importance of the SDGs. What our students learn in school determines who they become as individuals and their success throughout their lives.Today’s Education becomes even more important for developing the next generation of innovators and creative thinkers.

What do their society expects from them as individuals and how they depend on them as future citizens. Encouraging students to be an entrepreneur and address the problem and the solution in a creative way. Creativity is an essential skill that enable students to meet with future challenges and competitions. Creativity and innovation will be the best strategies to meet with the demands and challenges of the future problems. LTM.This activity reinforces the cooperation between participating schools. The cooperation between schools will be measure by the impact of the project activities on the institutional level, and offers enormous potential towards the internationalization and opening up of schools. LT study mobility of pupils can be a valuable international pedagogical experience for schools and teachers involved. The main impact for our pupils will be the development of their understanding of the diversity of European cultures, languages, as well as their personal growth.METHODOLOGY: Application of different teaching methods, ensuring methodological diversity, guaranteeing varied lessons for students and adoption of different perspectives.Both inductive and deductive teaching methods will be used to foster creative and creative thinking, team work, communication skills, digital competence and personal and social responsibility.RESULT AND IMPACT: Participants will foster a positive improvement to their lives.Our students will grow up to be adults in an increasingly interconnected and multicultural society. Students need to be aware of cultural norms and differences around the world so that they can succeed and thrive. Results can be divided into:1.Outputs; immediate results achieved after the completion on every activity. For e.g. after every STM students output might be around 100 students, teachers and families with deeper understanding of the SDGs2.Outcomes; the results will achieved after a period of time a change occurs in the project activity. Continuing the above e.g. the outcome might be; the participants used their new understanding to inform other members of their community about SDGs3.Impact; the long-term result that will come because of the activities undertaken in the project. For the above e.g. the impact of the project might be that one year after the project is finished, the whole community is aware of issues concerning the SDGs.Students need empathy to develop healthy relationships throughout their lives.Building compassion among pupils leads to passionate, engaged adults.Together, we can be a powerful force for achieving a vision of a more peaceful, healthy and equitable world. Long term benefits will contribute to the formation of good, well-balanced and well-informed future citizens of Europe, who will go on to take an active role in democratic society.The project will spread within the school organizations and become a natural part of school development.The project can led to important opportunity for pupils they otherwise would not have. Increased tolerance and comprehension towards multiculturalism is a long term benefits.

"In order to create the European Citizen Profile that values what to do for people and for the planet towards a sustainable Europe, six secondary schools from Croatia, Estonia, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Turkey with different backgrounds, but with common interests and concerns prepared the strategic partnership ""YES"" involving students aged between 14 and 18 years old in each school.By improving working methods, exchanging methodologies and sharing good practices this partnership aims to change the risky behaviour of youngsters in their daily lifestyle (bad eating habits, sedentary life, addictions); wrong attitude against people of different race, sexual inclination or different cultures; indifference and low integration towards youth with disability and indifference about essential and priority environmental issues.This is a global project divided into six related main topics: Health and Sports; Cultural Heritage; Language, Ideals and Mentalities; E-Citizenship; Sustainable Green Cities (environmental issues); Tolerance. A diverse variety of activities related to the six topics will be promoted by the schools using informal and non-formal methods.The project will be lead and developed by two main working teams composed of teachers and students that will promote, organise and disseminate the activities in each school.Two types of learning, teaching and training activities will be included in the project: short-term joint staff training events where teachers will have training courses concerning the project theme and also study visits combining on-site visits to relevant organisations, presentations, and discussion workshops and short-term exchanges of groups of pupils that will give students the opportunity to experience international learning, reinforce their understanding of the diversity of European cultures and languages, develop new skills and competences necessary for their personal development and deepen each topic with special activities.DEOR planning for this project has been studied to give a high level of involvement inside and outside the organisations involving multiple stakeholders.The E-twinning platform will be our privileged common online database of experiences that will allow the intensive cooperation among all schools involved during and after the project as well as the dissemination of our experiences, activities and results. The specific goals are to share experiences and to adapt learning programmes and teaching strategies in the participating schools considering sport practice, outdoor physical activities, healthy lifestyle education, cultural heritage values preservation, increase of environmental awareness, development of different languages, and change of mentalities, all through inclusion and integration. We intend to improve the way of looking at diversity as a chance to improve themselves and others, discuss how different countries cope with social inclusion and equal opportunities, fostering integration and equal rights. Participants will be taught the importance of tolerance and non-discrimination, overcoming all forms of discrimination, and developing the feeling of belonging to one European community."

The completed project “Recording Our Training Experiences in Documentaries” was dedicated to the field of tourism. In this project students from different cultures and studying in different educational systems in Europe worked together. All participating schools are located in the areas where tourism has important role in each country’s economy. The project originated as a need to improve our everyday classroom work and a way to motivate the students in informal learning through new and innovative teaching methods and approaches in order to gain new skills needed in the tourist industry and at the same time to get the students engaged in extracurricular activities. The topic of the project was making footage and documentaries related to tourism and youth oriented. The project was aimed at young people who wanted to boost and benefit from their creativity, potential and ambition. It was intended to promote the benefits of IT and digital competences. The project main aim was improving ICT and digital technology skills of both the students and the teachers, to enrich their knowledge of a wider European environment through the use of IT and digital technology. ICT and digital technology were used to create youth-oriented documentary films about tourist regions of their countries with emphasis on the country's heritage, traditions, customs on one hand and things to do for young people on the other hand. Realistic ICT goals were set up, which were students-oriented in order to present their culture, tourist attractions and sights in the eye of young people. One of the objectives of the project was to improve the skills of our students, especially of weaker students with low basic skills and motivate them to acquire skills and knowledge through the process of learning from experience and peer learning. It also aimed to provide an opportunity for stronger students to achieve more and use their talents and skills out of the classroom and at the same time get a unique experience that could be gained only by participating in such a project on European level. One of the goals of the project was to motivate the students through informal learning, to stimulate students through doing and creating to achieve more The target groups of participants were young students, teachers and non-teaching staff in participating schools. All our partners were skilful in various fields like business management, tourism and catering, marketing, foreign languages, history, geography, entrepreneurship, ICT, multimedia design, recreation, hospitality service, communication and dissemination, event organization, agriculture as a source of tourist income.Before the actual project activities took place Erasmus+ Route Docs Clubs were formed at each partner school. The activities undertaken throughout the project were innovative, creative and student-oriented. Our students had a chance to prove themselves in extracurricular tasks in addition to their regular lessons. Most of the project activities were done in schools through involving them in the school curriculum and also through extra-curricular activities. The possibility to participate in various learning, teaching and training activities with European peers was an invaluable opportunity to learn from practical experience. For example, exploring a town or a city, exploring flora and fauna of our national parks, visits to different institutions to get to know how they operate, and factories to see the process of production of things important for the tourist industry.The results of our completed project are different accomplished activities that resulted in 25 documentaries that all introduce our regions and share our experiences while working together. Participating in the project enabled the students to develop their basic and transversal skills, with highlight on entrepreneurship in the tourist industry and improving ICT and digital technology skills. The project promoted the EU Citizenship, enabled all the participants to improve their European awareness and intercultural understanding by experiencing life in another country, observing and noticing cultural differences and similarities; it boosted cooperation between students from other countries. The impact of the project at the local, regional, national, European or international levels is its recognition as a promotional tourist material that can be used in high schools or other educational organizations, in tourist offices for introducing destinations chosen by youth.
