The basic approach of the project AROUND CULTURES SHARING NATIONAL HERITAGE is to develop cultural awareness, sensitivity and tolerance for other cultures and promote national heritage as well as improving the quality of education by developing the students' 21st century skills such as cultural awareness/expression, communication and collaboration/teamwork, creativity and innovation, critical thinking, problem-solving and decision-making, meta cognition and learning to learn, citizenship, life and career skills, personal and social responsibility, interpersonal skills and intercultural learning, which are useful both in the school environment and in the world of work.Out project also focuses on strengthening the European dimension of education, providing teachers with modern teaching methods, developing digital skills and promote language teaching.Our students will benefit from innovative learning methods within a friendlier educational environment, able to respond to their individual needs and to cope with cultural diversity. Tolerance and respect for the self and for the others are two key concepts of this approach having as purpose the social inclusion for our students. As for the theoretical training, the project addresses the need to offer students competences and skills for accessing the next level in their professional formation, for active citizenship, voluntarism and future employment in changing international and local communities. All these desiderata require nurturing of qualities such as: team work ability, leadership, decision making, mistake assuming, sincerity, openness, being emphatic, pursuing a common goal, supporting the members in need and others that we promote through the methodology we intend to apply to our activities.The participant countries are Poland, Turkey, Spain, Italy, Bulgaria and Romania. Out of these six organisations two have not participated in a European Union granted project in the 3 years preceding this application, Romania and Turkey. The target group of students is aged between ten and nineteen; it includes students who are intellectually or socially disadvantaged, who manifest behavioral disorder, students with special needs and migrants who need to be integrated in their new groups of friends and classes. To review the most important items of our project, it is worth reminding the following points:• The results of our partnership will be both theoretical and practical and include: a significant students' raise in knowledge about other countries national heritage, which will be measured by heritage knowledge quiz(we predict the results will be better at least 20 percent). • Frequent use of the latest ICT tools by teachers and students: The proof of this will be numerous digital results of the project, developing fluency in English languages, communication skills, collaboration and teamwork, raising self-confidence and job satisfaction and learning at first hand, thus gaining invaluable knowledge effortlessly. • Promoting European projects and European dimension of education on regional and national scale. • There are six learning teaching training activities that contain a variety of activities in accordance with our priorities and objectives. There is one teacher training held during the first LTT, where teachers will be trained on ICT tools: • flip grid• presentation tools (prezi, powtoon, slideshare, powerpoint, videoscribe, moovly or flixpress ) • brainstorming tools(tricider)• blogging(wordpress)• cloud storage services• curation • google forms• online collaboration tools(padlet)• creating timelines(sutori)• collage maker(picasa)There is also one coordinators' meeting along with the third LTT when evaluation of all the project activities will be made as well as necessary amendments, schedules and deadlines established.• The impact will be assured at all requested levels through making the project visible and applying in classes all that the project brings in the education process.• The dissemination plan will be respected thoroughly, setting examples of good practices for other stakeholders.• The sustainability will be assured by each partner through using the ensuing material and techniques in regular and optional courses, establishing new partnerships to go on this work and through maintaining the project ethos after its end. Thus, the longer term benefits become clear. We are intent on sharing our experience with our colleagues that show interest in this respect. The school climate change within our organisations will recommend us as sources of inspiration and materials for the school community.To sum up, we intend that our cultural heritage must be appreciated and preserved not only to keep our world more beautiful but also keep it as a compass to guide us in the future.
