Languages for all

<< Background >>We applied for this project in order to develop digital and languages skills and competences for children and teachers. One important need which our project has addressed is internationalization. So from this perspective our main purpose is to improve the younger generation’s awareness about learning English language and developing digital skills and competences, also, to understand how important are these key competences in order to communicate, interact, negotiate and solve real life problems. We established a context for 4 different European schools with different backgrounds to make students value these competences, as well as raising our communities (parents, teachers from other schools, local institution, local companies, press, etc) awareness about the importance of learning a foreign language and developing digital competences and encourage them to take action in their local communities, producing changes in their mentalities and having a huge impact on students future careers.<< Objectives >>The project objectives are:1)to equip teachers with tools and methods in order to promote and assess language and digital skills and competences;2)to improve students awareness and knowledge about the importance of learning English and developing digital skills;3)to develop students language and digital skills and competences;<< Implementation >>Unfortunately we have only achieved the mobility to Romania.(This part was completed by Romania)We realized management activities : preparatory activities preparing for children and teachers (linguistic,pedagogical, cultural, preventing risks), filling in the requested information in Beneficiary Module, collecting relevant information and materials like videos and picture in order to create presentations for dissemination, evaluating the activities, creating a dissemination plan and implementing itmeasuring the impact on students, teachers, parents by conducting surveys, dissemination activities, organizing regular meeting ( one per month ) to monitor the project evolution.Activities from Mobility to Romania1)Schools, children and teachers presentations;2) Guided tour of Secondary School Hălchiu under the form of a treasure hunt;3) Icebreaking games;4) Outdoor activities.5) Music based activities6) Drama play7) Cultural visit to Castle Bran.
