Support Roma Children Integration via Multiliteracies and Multimodality for Language Learning in Early Primary Education

Description

The modern citizen, due to technological developments and the need to transcend different linguistic and cultural codes, must develop new skills in order to be able to understand, use and produce a variety of multimodal texts (texts that combine words, symbols, images) charts and sound, and appear with the help of new forms of typography and interoperable digital technology. The development of such skills within the European Union educational systems, Multilingualism and student minorities’ integration in the everyday educational classroom are innovative and important teaching and learning objectives. Hence, Multiliteracies, Multimodality, Multiligualism, the integration of Romani students in the everyday school activities and language learning, can help the students of 6-12 yo to express themselves by adapting to the modern communication requirements to utilize different media for meaning other than linguistic. Romani students can familiarize with new and more attractive ways of presenting written language via multimodal texts and the perception of the morphological variety of semantic modes to decode the everyday communicative messages. In addition, emotional mapping will aid their emotional stability and adaption to the modern creative classroom in order to transfer the newly acquired skills outside the classroom walls. The project offers the students the advantage of extracting elements from their own everyday life, such culture, art or fairy-tales so that students' daily experiences and teamwork are directly linked to classroom learning.RomaMultiLangPrimE project main aim is to increase Romani primary school students' Multiliteracies Language Learning Competences to support their early and natural integration in the everyday educational classroom activities. Hence, the project objectives are to: (a) increase active and emotionally engaged participation in pre-school education; (b) minimize the high risk of segregation in schools, aggravated by prejudice and discrimination; (c) increase the active interest in education; and (d) increase the literacy, multiliteracies and digital skills for multimodality rates engaging the students both mentally and emotionally in active and attractive learning.Number and profile of participants 125 pupils and 25 teachersRomaMultiLangPrimE activities include the baseline research, the main project activities and evaluation as well as dissemination activities. The initial baseline research sheds light into: (a) Romani students’ integration in the classroom levels, (b) reading and writing abilities test as in some European countries the initial language learning level starts at 6 yo, (c) self-expression of emotions based on recent studies on emotional mapping, and (d) the ways these emotions are externalised via a multimodal own story. The main project activities include the design, development and evaluation of all project toolkits and training courses, contests, multiplier events and workshops. The dissemination activities include all dissemination in target groups inside the schools, outside the schools inn the local community, on regional, national and international level as well as academic dissemination and overall exploitation of results. Based on the initial research, the innovative Multiplications Pedagogical Methodology (multi-literacies, multi-modalities, multi-lingual educational activities) is combined with emotional mapping aiming at high levels of engagement in the project educational activities. Multiplications Methodology is implemented in the project tangible and intangible results; this is the 2-levels toolkit for Roma students and their co-students for ages 6-8 and 9-12 yo. Additionally, a teachers’ training online and onsite course and educational material will provide the school teachers and everyone involved in the Roma education with the knowledge, the methods and the tools for the successful Roma students’ integration. The ShareOurStory platform will host the students’ projects in partner languages and English. Intangible results include the overall improvement of the Romani students and co-students in language learning and associated skills and competences.
