Description
<< Background >>The project BE GREEN is a collaboration of 5 schools (France, Bulgaria, Italy, Iceland and Turkey) and an Institute ofHumanities and Social Sciences (IAKE : non-profit scientific association) . It’s a project which is organized by a team of several teachers, it is an international relationship of 6 places with a different culture, different educational systems and a different integration in the EU because of their location. The priority of the partnership BE GREEN is through using PBL, ICT and English as a foreign language to study in non-formal and formal class on topics like the environment, sustainability and to promote the Green Deal policy through PBLs. This will help teachers to share didactics and to collaborate and create online lessons in the contemporary digitalera.<< Objectives >>During the project period, our goal was to use new technologies and to make students think of the Environment and sustainable future. We focused on the development and evaluation of the Green Deal topics: Biodiversity and Measures to protect our fragile ecosystem, From farm to fork or Ways to ensure more sustainable food systems, Sustainability in EU agriculture and rural areas thanks to the common agricultural policy, Clean energy, Sustainable industry and Ways to ensure more sustainable, more environmentally-respectful production cycles, Building and renovating and The need for a cleaner construction sector, Sustainable mobility - Promoting more sustainable means of transport, Eliminating pollution and Measures to cut pollution rapidly and efficiently, Climate action and Making the EU climate neutral by 2050. We implemented these topics at school, through the following subjects: PBL of Economy, History, Science, Human Science, Maths, ICT.<< Implementation >>Collaborating and working in a small group using technologies was an easier way of learning and reach high results. That was the motivation to create a collection of PBL as a final, sustainable product : – in 6 different European languages – in English, the language of the partnership. We hope to make our students understand they should have a position in their future environment. Moreover, that school should not be an isolated, closed community. It should be the place where young people and future citizens learn how to play an active role in our European democratic society. We hzve achieved these goals by involving our students in formal and non-formal teaching activities. During these two years, they have studied and conducted research, done fieldwork, used new technologies, prepared presentations, and so on. They were also be in contact with governmental organizations and local authorities. They collected data, elaborated on them, learned how to think critically, and draw conclusions. All the work was done in national and mixed groups.<< Results >>The project BE GREEN has allowed us to have: - tangible results: a book in 6 different languages, new ICT skills, improving spoken English, eTwinning , reports, videos, a website, etc. - intangible results: helpful lessons in periods of distant education and ways of teaching/learning, changes in students‘ attitudes and many insights gained that could be shown afterwards. We use the Erasmus+ Project Results Platform for the visualization of the achievement and results sharing. The School Education Gateway will promote our project through a public website. Therefore, our project will be opened to other educational stakeholders in order to encourage cooperation between schools and other organizations.
