Act & React: towards Involved Students for a democratic Europe

<< Objectives >>After 5 years of bilateral cooperation between the 2 leading schools, we believe it's time to upscale our citizenship project by promoting the educational, professional and personal development of all participants. We aim for the strengthening of the European identity and active citizenship through mobilities of groups, transnational cooperation, quality, inclusion and equity, creativity and innovation at the level of our organisations. To achieve this, we will be supported by external experts.<< Implementation >>We will achieve our goals by developing learning, teaching and evaluation material in collaborative learning activities, by organising group mobilities, workshops, teacher training sessions etc. and by developing an innovative digital evaluation system to support the recognition and validation of citizenship competencies. In our project work, all partners will use the PDCA cycle (plan, do, check, act) and Project Life Cycle (initiation, planning, execution, control, closure) methods.<< Results >>We aim for the development of teaching material: podcasts, posters, exhibitions, international collaborative learning activities, group mobilities, workshops, teacher manuals, policy recommendation etc. about democracy and citizenship by letting pupils, teachers and experts (the neuroscientific research department from Bremen University and the Gollwitz foundation in Brandenburg) from 5 countries (B/NL/D/F/E) cooperate. Our results will inspire stakeholders dealing with wicked societal issues.
