"“We are committed to help every learner develop as a whole person, fulfill his or her potential and help shape a shared future”. Totally agreeing with this goal defined by OEDC and in order to make it happened in our schools to fulfill those goals of OEDC to the future of education we created this project, based in cooperation at European level.I - We believe that developing student's soft skills and emotional intelligence will empower them to face the future challenges, as the current situation of the world pandemic is an example. As this is still a recent subject in European school’s curricula we decided to create this project and start a cooperation between five European schools which share the will and motivation to implement specific strategies and methods to develop emotional intelligence and soft skills at school context, on a consistent basis, in order to contribute to pupils' personal development and success. II - We try a different solution to an old problem: Often school failure is not related to learning difficulties, but it lies in deeper and more comprehensive causes of deficits in the soft skills, related to each pupil’s context as an individual and as a human and social being. In order to help those students, we need to empower them with the right skills, namely soft skills (self-esteem, autonomy, self-control resilience…) and emotional intelligence which will lead to the achievement of one or two of the main objectives. III – We want to give importance to motivation. In the era of digital transformation, it is even more difficult to motivate students for traditional school tasks, so teachers need to be empowered with new educational strategies and resources to increase pupils’ motivation and efficacy. We will use multimedia to motivate and engage students in school projects and to promote communication at and from school to the world.With this project we want to reach these main objectives: Increase motivation at school, for learners and teachers; Reinforce students’ engagement in school projects; Enhance social skills through team work and several common activities among partners; Improve social and interpersonal relationship between students; Develop emotional intelligence in learners and staff; Develop soft skills for learners and staff; Use multimedia (video) to increase communication at school and between schools; Develop specific skills on audiovisual and multimedia (to create short movies and video contents); Reinforce awareness of European cultural diversity; Increase the use of ICT in all phases of the project; Increase digital literacy using multiple digital resources to search and share knowledge about emotional intelligence and different topics; Use foreign languages to communicate and present specific contents ; Increase foreign languages skills for students and teachers;Methodology: Phase I - Each partner school will focused on a specific method and activity and will implement it in its school. Phase II - They share the method / strategy and results with partners through eTwinning. Phase III - Each school experiments other's strategies/methods with their own classes and share comments, results and assessment reports with partners through eTwinning. Phase IV- Each school will experiment their most efficient strategies/methods in site, with partners, during transnational pupils' exchanges, involving students from all partnering schools. All coordinators analyse the strategy/method and do the assessment report, to decide if and how these methods will be part of the e-guide. We'll use a big variety of methods: Team work; active learning; gaming; debate; drama...Tangible Results: e-guide (on students’ soft skills enchanement); Presentations (Prezi, PowerPoint, PowToon or similar);Theater play;Video documentary;Video Festival; Project Website;YouTube channel;Web page; eTwinning TwinSpace; Photo album (digital);Photo exhibition; Art exhibition; Project song; We will monitor and assess each activity during and at the end to measure in what extend it has contributed to the project goals, using questionnaires to all participants and observers (students and teachers, parents and other member of local community eventually involved).We will also do the assessment of each pupils' exchange as a whole activity in order to evaluate if and in what extend we achieved that meeting predefined goals. The assessment methodology will include questionnaires (Google forms) for all participants, teachers, parents but also interviews to guests and reports for teachers from the host school to report their students ""behavior"" comparing everyday with that Erasmus week and finally the very important teachers' and students' grids we will fill in to check the efficacy of each activity in developing motivation, soft skills and emotional intelligence.To spread and dissemination we'll have events in all schools, a flash drive with the e-guide; websites; YouTube channel;on-line TV."
