Project description

The increasing efficiency of new technologies is transforming our way of life as well as the way to learn. The diversity of mobile devices, their simple use and applications digital practices are invading our daily lives, attracting more and more people, and bring together the interests of young people, mainly with regard to fun activities and social. As educators, these devices can be considered as distractions

of school activity and alienation of reality or, on the contrary, use them as motivating elements learning and educational resources for practical and experimental activities, in touch with the real world.

This project will enable teachers, educators and the general public to use digital tools and home automation educational purposes.

So the five partners will pool and share their know-how to build (virtually and / or on site) tomorrow's home (connected modern home) and its immediate environment (floral garden and aromatic and medicinal plants) in respect of sustainable development rules and answers to the problem of transition which consists mainly of reducing the consumption of fossil fuels in a a large part of human activities: industry, transport, lighting, etc., taking into account the natural, cultural, historical heritage of each country.

Virtual productions or physical productions (which will be evolutionary) will be used as teaching aids by the teachers of the disciplines involved but also in the framework for creating a mini-enterprise for construction professionals.

Experiences, good practices, know-how for the use of new technologies the project and the evolutionary possibilities will be multiplied during an international seminar at the end of project.

The Lycée Professionnel de la Trinité will coordinate work teams of more than 30 teachers and 150 pupils between 15 and 19 years old from six general and vocational schools (Lycée Professionnel de la Trinité, France, Escola Secundária de Loulé, Portugal, Liceo Scientifico e Linguistico Principe Umberto di Savoia, Italy; Šolski center Krško-Sevnica, Slovenia; Pärnu Ühisgümnaasium, Estonia and HTL Pinkafeld, Austria).

Based on the priorities of the Institutional Projects, the analysis of the needs of each target groups, the partnership has set the following objectives for this project:

1. Encourage the use of teaching and learning methodologies with the use of ICTs and new technologies to motivate students and facilitate learning.

2. Build educational resources that bring together the teaching of theoretical subjects of practical and real learning situations, motivating factor important for students with learning difficulties and demotivated.

3. Develop the skills needed for the use of digital resources. For students, especially those who are falling behind the traditional system, ICT can to be a motivating factor, facilitating learning through the wealth of its resources.

4. Develop communication skills (oral and written) in students' foreign languages and teachers.

5. Promote inclusion and tolerance through collaborative work between students of different pathways (general and vocational), of different social origins and belonging to vulnerable groups, and from different countries and cultures.

With this project, the partnership therefore has a strong impact in:

- the development of collaborative work capabilities, project management, skills linguistics and the use of digital technology and new technologies,

- the evolution of social skills and promotion of European citizenship,

- the impetus of practical teaching and learning methodologies to increase the student motivation and reduce school dropout,

- the discovery and promotion of the cultural heritage of the six partner countries in the service of space school, but also educational.
