What makes you different makes you beautiful

Description

"The central theme of our project ""What makes you different makes you beautiful"" is to deal with highly diverse classrooms while at the same time avoid early school leaving and improve students’ learning achievements. Our aim is a powerful school environment which respects diversity and supports all students making them to feel unique. Our special objectives are to help students from different backgrounds to be more self-confident and creative with better academic results, using all their social and cultural potential. We also foster to establish a positive and challenging climate and to bring up the respect for the values (religious, ethnic, personal) of other people promoting tolerance and openness to other cultures, people, languages, religions, customs and lifestyle, eliminating xenophobia and prejudice. In addition, we focus to promote oral, writing and research skills for different productions, as well as the use of foreign languages, communication, negotiation and debating skills and to familiarize students and teachers with ICT and audiovisual productions in a protected environment, providing tools for learning through entertainment and networking, within and among schools providing a model for collaborative learning and teamwork - as Lev Vygotsky wrote 'learning is cognitive development through social interaction’.For solving the problem of early school leaving and low academic results, we cannot use one-time actions and events, or studying only the theory; it is necessary to use methods and techniques that will allow each child, according to his age characteristics and abilities, not only to learn and understand, but also to feel and experience. That is why we have chosen creative activities such as outdoor activities, games, ICT, art. In addition, all our partners come from different schools, countries and social environments. Thus, we will share the strongest sides of each institution and will work to create non-boring techniques to strengthen the school environment, with motivating activities integrated in the school intra and extra curriculum context; we would like to implement and share active learning methods which take different types of learners into account. We want to make school days happier, more active in our own ways. The lessons will not be restricted to the national point of view but they will be enriched by innovative activities. Students will come into contact with different cultures and diversity; they will be able to practice new knowledge instead of just learning in a theoretical way.Finally, our results: the developed activities, lesson plans, games and materials will be available to youth organizations and schools. They can be used for new projects, lessons, formal and informal learning."
