The roots of our identities and values

<< Background >>We designed this project to develop students' digital and cultural competences and computer skills through the use of foreign languages.The project allowed students to gain experience with their peers from Greece and Turkey and fostered cooperation between students and teachers. The students were not familiar with European heritage sites, so the project allowed them to develop an awareness of the importance of working together to discover the traditions of the countries involved and to encourage them to love and preserve their own culture and traditions.We wanted to foster the educational, professional and personal development of individuals in the field of education and training, in Europe and the rest of the world, thus contributing to sustainable growth, the promotion of innovation and the strengthening of European identity and active citizenship. The project has been a key instrument for the construction of a European educational space, supporting the implementation of European strategic cooperation in the field of education and training.<< Objectives >>The main objectives desired and achieved are: 1) To develop European culture in the students involved, in order to make them aware of the importance of protecting and preserving it; 2) To create a healthy intercultural dialogue between the students and teachers of the three countries involved;3) To develop learning activities through the study of European cultural heritage;4) To create a healthy European learning environment.5) To strengthen the partnership between the institutions involved;6) To share good practices through meetings with teachers from the partner institutions;7) To design and implement a form of shared teaching and online communication in different languages;8) To present the results of various intellectual activities aimed at enriching the teaching and learning processes in each partner institution;9) To offer recommendations for the harmonization of learning outcomes and their recognition;10) To strengthen mobility on a European level.<< Implementation >>The activities had a formal and non-formal approach; the students of the three mobilities participated in lessons and workshops that took place inside and outside the school and helped to increase their sense of togetherness and familiarise them with other European cultures and traditions, including More active participation in society;Improved learning outcomes;Improved skills, particularly digital skills and foreign languages;Increased sense of initiative, empowerment and self-esteem;Improved interaction and operation at European levelImprovement of intercultural awareness Creation of a modern and dynamic environmentImprovement in meeting the needs of people with fewer opportunities.<< Results >>The activities carried out by the three partners made it possible to achieve the above-mentioned objectives.
