The project consists of 3 parts:

INTRODUCTION

E-BOOK - LET'S GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER BETTER, LOGO, PROJECT ENTRY TICKET (QUIZ)

The introduction to the project will begin in September, which will be the time dedicated to getting to know the project and getting to know the partners. Students will have the opportunity to explore the idea of the project and understand its goals and expectations. The first days will be devoted to presenting task proposals and voting so that everyone can express their preferences. After selecting the tasks, students will start the first part of the project, creating a book "Let's get to know each other better", which aims to better understand each other and establish cooperation. The next step will be a joint task of creating an image using artificial intelligence that reflects the theme of the project. The project logo will be created through a photo collage from previously created images, which will further emphasize the cooperation and involvement of the participants. Before the official start of the project, students will take an evaluation test to check their knowledge and skills, as well as to assess their readiness to work on the project. Additionally, the online meeting will enable participants to get to know each other better and build relationships. We hope that such a comprehensive introduction will allow students to fully immerse themselves in the project and effectively start working on completing the tasks. Before starting the main project tasks, students will complete a common challenge selected by voting.
