The aim of this project was to create innovative intervention model based on cognitive and narrative psychotherapies principles and elements improving students with EBLD learning motivation to prevent early school leaving (thereafter - ESL). The aim of this model was a precise identification of the genetically programmed needs, i.e. its’ content, which determines emotional and behavioral difficulties. The project seeks for extension of the model with children thoughts i.e., enabling to modify them and replacing the needs satisfaction forms with pro-social behavior. It was expected that this method will increase an internal motivation of students with EBLD for behavioral changes. Project partially has reached it's objectives: • to create the instrument defining students with EBLD profile; • to create and test innovative intervention model based on scientific research methods and cognitive and narrative psychotherapies principles and elements; make it ready to use for an international team of educators; • to create gamified IT tool using the project intervention model enabling particularly approaches for engagement of contemporary learners and educators. Intervention model was created for students with EBLD of 12-19 years old studying in relevant educational institutions (e.g. secondary, VET, special or youth schools). The direct target group of the project - students with attention problems, hyperactivity, memory problems, tension to disobey the social rules and instructions, having poor language abilities, poor social skills, aggressive, withdrawn or bizarre behavior, poor academic performance and students with mild intellectual disabilities. Special attention will be paid on socio-economically disadvantaged students. The other large group of beneficiaries - tutors/educators, who are working with the target group of students and will have possibility to use created innovative intervention model and other project outputs. Project contained several innovative products: • a new instrument to define the psychological and pedagogical profile of students with EBLD, aimed to reveal an in-depth behaviour reasons as well as cultural differences; created new Students Needs Analysis Instrument, helping school specialists to identify the reasons of emotional, behavior and learning difficulties of students with EBLD; • a new intervention model for students with EBLD; • a new EBLD intervention teacher training curriculum; • a new gamified training tool, enabling students with EBLD to learn at personal pace, using verbal and visual interactions. The consortium of project partners consisted of 3 HEIs, representing social sciences (LT, IT, GR), 2 SME dealing with technologies (LT) and innovative pedagogy (LT, BG) and 1 VET (DE) with expertise in pedagogy for students with special needs. After project evaluation, project duration was shortened from 3 years to 2. Accordingly, there was made a budget cutoff. All this influenced project activities and made some difficulties in reaching planned numbers of people from the various targeted groups. Some of the planned activities (such as learning/training activities for teachers), were not implemented as well. Due mentioned reasons, project consortium could not reach mentioned impact as it was planned in the project proposal (there was no possibility to test such activities practically): • Increased learning motivation and reduced early school leaving of students with EBLD; • Students with EBLD increased social inclusion and more active participation in society; • Increased level of Digital competence of educational institutions specialists; • Increased opportunities for professional development of teachers, researchers, lecturers, high school students, policy makers and other stakeholders; • Parental increased satisfaction with schools.Despite mentioned aspects, the impact of created intellectual outputs could be observed through such activities:• Educational institutions specialists and their improved competences, related to Professional profiles. It was reached during multiplier events whereas participated teachers and even pupils with EBLD (in Bulgaria, Germany).• Increased teachers‘ motivation and satisfaction in a daily work. This impact could be partially monitored, during the multiplier evens. Unfortunately, due to shortened project duration and budged cutoff, project team could not arrange learning/teaching activities for teachers in order to measure their motivation or satisfaction working with created IOs.• Increased professional development of specialists, involved in the projects activities. All specialists, which were related with the creation with IOs activities, participated in multiplier events, enhanced their qualification in their daily work with students’ with EBLD.
