The project E.CH.O. is  focused on the use of music as a means of knowledge, enlargement of cultural boundaries,and as a learning tool. Even the most disadvantaged students will have the opportunity, through E.CH.O., and through music to make experience of a European context, to improve their foreign language skills and use of ICT. Through the musical activity (choir and orchestra) also pupils with fewer opportunities will have the chance to participate, collaborate, interact with results that feed and strengthen self-esteem and social skills. To achieve the desired results the entire orchestral body must be able to work with constant and continuous commitment, developing a capacity for collaboration, interaction and coordination. Similarly this process will allow students to improve decision-making and responsability of individuals and of groups. The entire project will develop precisely thanks to the use of ICT by the systematic use of video conferencing, electronic mail, computer programs, blogs, websites and social networks. Students will therefore be direct protagonists of these activities because of their predisposition towards new technologies. |
