Each partner school has one or more items to work on. The Germans will deal with organic food and renewable energies; the Finns will be concerned with sports to be made attractive to young people; Cyprus and Spain will be engaged in migration, refugees and the value of volunteering in the civil society; the Portuguese are occupied with conveying European values as well as the importance and mutual understanding of traditions and individual cultural heritage and the Italians are going to design and operate the website and provide necessary steps of digitalization for schools. The schools are responsible for creating tutorials on their topics and forward and amplify them so their partners so that those can use them during lessons consistent with their local conditions. All the schools are working on volunteering activities closely affiliated to the items mentioned above. The entirety of these accomplishments is tightly linked to the future and the challenges the EU is facing. Communication is an indispensable element in cooperation and project progress so we have agreed on some binding arrangements accepted by all partners. These will ensure a steady flow of information and allow a permanent process of monitoring project objectives.
• English is the project language and will be used for communication and documentation.
• There is a collective E-Mail list of the participating colleagues so that they have access to all information – this has already been successfully operated in the pre project period
. • A virtual group will be installed(Facebook, google,….) to provide transparency and ease communication
• Skype will be used for joint talks at fixed dates or ad hoc talks between smaller groups of partners
• The project website (operated by the Italian school) will list the results of the participating partners thus ensuring that the schools are always up to date with project progress. The website will be installed contemporary so that we can start publishing results and impressions soon after the project has started.
• The local Erasmus teams meet regularly to discuss the stage of activities. They are also responsible to inform the students, the staff, the parents and other people involved in project work about the status quo of the project.
• All partners establish an “Erasmus Board” placed in a good position at school so that it can be noticed by students, staff and visitor without any difficulties.
• There will be three LTTA at the beginning of the first and second year and at the end of the project. They will be essential for the evaluation project objectives, exchanging the activity experiences, adjust objectives of the project, boost personal contacts(with Finland, Portugal and Cyprus there are new schools in the project and this will be the first opportunities to meet and get to know each other’s working partners personally) and of course suitable places for communication generally.
