"CONTEXTThe aim of the project is to provide the necessary framework for teachers and students to work together, share ideas and good practices in European context and learn how to develop teaching abilities and methods to improve educational system. By providing different lessons based on IT and other sensitive subjects (Literature and religion) improving English language we intend to achieve a number of topic-related objectives as well as objectives related to the intercultural dialogue that the project presupposes:Therefore, the purpose of this project lies in two apparently different directions. From the one point of view, we intend students to be more involved in their own learning process by using their computer for studies. From another point of view, we wish them to experience what it means to belong to European community, to reveal them different ways of thinking, values and beliefs. The partnership includes 5 schools – IT, RO, PL, TR, LT.OBJECTIVESThe objectives of the project we agree on:1. Develop students learning process so that their results are much better (at least 40% of the target group will improve their learning skills)2. Developing flexibility to European diversity and flexible thinking to designate the competences to permanently restructure gained experience, find out and discuss multiple solutions, and apply them to real or specific situations. At least 30% of students will improve these skills)3. Ensuring tolerance to cultural and religious differences, but within mutual attitudes.4. Acquaintance of complexity and sites between cultural and social classes, institutions, education systems, school rules and traditions, scientific aims, and between human beings despite of the language, nationalities, age, language or ethnicity. (at least 60% of students will broaden their knowledge of other countries identities)5. Developing the communication English skills in speaking, listening reading and writing.6.

Students will be able to use ICT, English, mathematics skills at appropriate level in order to avoid some misunderstandings.METHODOLOGYThe project involves 5 main stages: initiation (identification of needs and partners), planning (action plan, methodologies, and resources), implementation (organization of activities before, during and after the TLTA meetings), evaluation (throughout the entire project, in steps, but also at the end of the project), and finalization (reporting, elaboration of impact study, sustainability plan).A1. Project management: financial and risk management, communication and cooperation plans and strategies, monitoring and evaluation of the project results will be applied timely within the project. 1 TM will be organized at the end of the project.A2. Implementation of the activities: this stage includes the selection and training courses for the participants.A3. Each partner schools organize ICT courses which will be attended by students before the TLTA meeting.A4.
