    The climate summit in Paris aimed at empowering people / nations / actors of that same civil society, to collaborate and take measures to sustain a sustainable world with a particular emphasis on energy, global warming and durability. It is for this purpose that we firmly believe that all the goals we established for our partnership are completely justified in the international sense, where all participants from the countries involved will exchange experiences and collectively instill a respectful and sustainable behavior towards the planet and environment in students.The U.N. Sustainable Development Target 6's newest priority applies to ' clean, available water for everyone. ' The teaching / training practices of our collaboration along with the results described above will set new standards for this crucial priority and our aim is to meet the targets of the U.N. Sustainable Development. We want to demonstrate how schools and local communities around Europe can take the lead in achieving Target 6.As educational suppliers, we, teachers, couldn't be naive about the threatened future which water holds, we need to take concrete steps to protect water supplies for the younger generations as well. We agree that a very powerful way of achieving this and behaving proactively is by designing the most relevant educational-to-project that will serve as the curriculum that will teach students about its strategic and critical role in life for both the short and long term. In this context, the aim of our collaboration is to establish an integrative as well as a multidisciplinary, realistic and clear teaching method, which can only be accomplished and supplemented by the assistance of all the project partners who will apply the knowledge, experience and competence they possess in different fields of school education. The fundamental goal of the collaboration unfolds around the central objective of collaborating together with teachers from five different countries to produce a methodological compilation of ' good practices` - which in fact will b e a well-designed and well-bonded curriculum for students aged between 15-18 years that will focus attention on supporting and enhancing interdisciplinary education.The program will be structured to help students become conscious of the value of water in fully supporting all life on earth. But nowadays it is also of crucial importance to enable the young generations-beginning with our students-understand how important it is to cultivate, sustain and encourage safe water consumption behaviour. A high priority is to allow students to realize how fragile water supplies are, how rapidly the amount of such a natural resource declines, and to work together to identify means to ensure sustainable management of water.In addition, the students would also realize how fruitful it is to work together and solve problems or find solutions to a general, fundamental, universal subject, one that creates and preserves living on Earth - water; Water is our reciprocal, global source of life as oceans or any other water source, it also traversing the boundaries of a country into another country, the same `water` being therefore administered by people in different countries. Throughout this collaboration, we wish to approach the problem of 'water' seen from different angles as a crucial natural component for life, with the help of various school subjects. Whilst doing so we want to raise awareness among students of all ages about the need for responsible as well as sustainable environmental attitude and behavior. The project would also provide students with the ability to obtain a concrete and practical knowledge that will eventually help them develop a deeper understanding of science, which otherwise could sound too complex and academic for them in certain respects.OBJECTIVES:O1. to raise direct participants` and members of local community`s awareness of the core problem of the endangered natural global resource-water O2. to raise awareness of responsible consumption and sustainability of the environment within students and regional communities O3. to establish an online instructional base — educational resourcesO4. to strengthen the transversal and cross-sectoral abilities of students, along with their agility, and to properly help them in becoming successful young learners, qualified for productive future careersO5. to boost teachers ' and students ' ability to develop their ICT, communication, and intercultural skills;O6. to increase students ' participation in classrooms, educational activities as well as support them to be more personally engaged in their educational process, contribute with ideas and overcome specific challengesO7. to foster European values as well as promoting intercultural awareness and unity among Europe's people

    "As of the beginning of 2020, we are living in historical days when societies took a serious test in their preparation for digital transformation. This event, which has written its name as the ""Coronavirus Outbreak"" in the history of the world, has fallen into our agenda as a global issue that opens not only the place of tourism and health services in our lives, but also the past and future of education systems.When we look at the studies and plans of the countries (eg Singapore, Finland, Norway, Japan, etc.) that have established the education system in the millennium age and are global pioneers, we can see a common point when we look at the existing structures of the underdeveloped countries: “The education should be provided by the educator (teacher). . ” We cannot see any education system trying to push teachers out of the system. We see that there is a lot of discussion about this, but each time the teacher maintains his position for human-centered education.So where do the debates in this direction lead? Or what is the difference between pioneering societies and lagging societies in education?Answer: ""The tools and methods used."" Yes, the most basic requirement of being a pioneer in education is the development, change and adaptation of the tools and methods used in accordance with the age. While technology changes industries and our daily lives, it is the common opinion of all pioneers working in this field that it makes no sense to provide education in the old ways. In this context, the main target group of our project is the participating school teachers who will directly participate in the project activities. Participants will carry out learning and teaching activities in the form of the exchange of good practices in the project activities, which will be planned both virtually and face to face throughout the project. Project participants will receive local and international training and practice in areas such as web tools, programming, coding, virtual reality. These activities will improve participants' skills to use educational technologies competently. Professional skills of the trainers who have the ability to use technology competently will increase. In recent years, the problem of keeping up with technology or staying behind in terms of technological competence is seen in people who are teaching profession. Today's students, especially the age group called generation z, come from birth by virtue of technology. This generation is a generation that easily adapts technological developments and perceives technology easily. For this reason, the trainers who will take part in the education of this generation need to have good skills in using the tools and equipment they will use while training them. For this reason, the participating teachers of our project will have digital competencies to avoid a technological gap with the young audience they are responsible for their training. The acquisition of digital competence by the project participants will not only aim to enable teachers and students to use technology at a similar level in education. Due to the Covid 19 outbreak, face-to-face education has not been carried out. In this case, the importance of distance education increases. Programs, applications, virtual reality applications to be used in distance education with project activities will increase the quality of distance education. Project activities will focus on using web 2 technologies, robotic coding, distance education tools and its implementation, virtual and artificial reality. 4 teachers or administrative staff from each project school will join the project activities directly and students are not planned to take part in cross country project activities due to covid 19 outbreak. In Ltt activities participants are going to attend seminars, workshops,conferences. As well as teachers working in the project schools are the main target groups, neighboring schools and educational institutions like universities, parents and companies are also included in the project target audience. Since the partner schools have different areas of expertise when considering digitalization, the project's involvement in transnational activities will create an important opportunity for the exchange of good practices. In addition, transnational project activities will enable wider audiences to benefit from the project results by globalizing the project.Our project will adapt the developing technologies of the age to the field of education and will enable the participants to train more efficiently. In addition, the main goal of our project is to ensure that training activities are carried out efficiently in conditions where face-to-face training is not possible. For this reason, we anticipate that supporting our project will be beneficial and add value to education so that training activities can be carried out in the most efficient way under all conditions"

    CONTEXTThe project was established in order to meet a couple of basic necessities identified at the level of the schools engaged in the project - the need to bolster students' motivation and subsequently their school performance and the requirement to advertise intercultural communication among people from various countries and backgrounds, in a European context which now has to deal with great challenges. Thus, the aim of this project consists of two apparently different directions. On one hand, we intend to get students more committed to learning by having them employ computers in their studying, having as effect the enhancement of their grades and performance. On the other hand, we want them to witness what it means to be European, to show them the different ways of thinking, principles and beliefs. The partnership encompasses 5 schools – The PL, MK, IT, RO, TR.GOAL: to enhance students' commitment, engagement and school performance and to advertise intercultural communication. OBJECTIVESThe objectives we foresee are:1. to engage students in their own learning with a view to accomplishing better results and becoming more motivated; (at least 40 percent from the target group will improve their school results)2. to upgrade students' cross training abilities - numeracy, computer literacy, critical and creative thinking, personal and social capability; (at least 30 percent of students will enhance these skills)3. to build up intercultural comprehension and tolerance; (at least 60 percent of students will have better knowledge of other cultures)4. to develop communication skills in English; (the 156 participants, students and teachers, will improve communication skills in English)5. to promote European principles and bolster unity among European citizens. (measurable by analyzing students' and teachers' behavior towards other cultures, as seen in the post-LTTA feedback)MAIN ACTIVITIESC1 - January 2022 - PL - Topic: DIGITAL AGE AND EDUCATION (JOINT STAFF)C2 - May 2021- RO - Topic: Utilizing software to design fun lessons; Customs and traditionsC3 - October 2021 - MK - Topic: Employing online tools to set up quizzes; MathC4 - March 2022 - IT - Topic: Using online tools to create book trailers; LiteratureC5 - May 2022 – TR - Digital tools for artwork; Religious StudiesNUMBER AND PROFILE OF PARTICIPANTS120 students aged 13-18 from the 5 schools, appointed from the target group of 250. The students come from very diverse backgrounds - urban and rural - and have a variety of ethnic and religious backgrounds, which makes the project even more attractive. 36 teachers of ICT, English, Math.METHODOLOGYThe project is meant to cover 5 main areas:A1. Project management – consists of monitoring and assessment, risk management, financial management, cooperation and communication strategy that will be implemented for the entire duration of the project. 1 TM is embedded, at the end of the project.A2. Implementation of activities – consists of appointment of participants, preparatory training sessions, participation in exchanges.A3. Design of ICT lessons – this will be completed before each mobility by every partner school.A4. Release of products - dissemination will be a continuous process that involves the sharing of both touchable and abstract outcomes at local, regional, national and international levels, utilizing various means of communications and addressing school and non-school target audiences.A5. Follow-up and sustainability - every school designates a group of teachers to implement the new methods during regular class work. The proficiency is measured comparatively against the outcomes and degree of satisfaction of students who acquired the same contents without the use of digital tools. Afterwards, another school in each area will be supported to include digital tools during class work in the next year.OUTCOMES AND EFFECTStudents will enhance knowledge regarding ICT tools for educational purposes, practical abilities related to establishing mini-lessons, story trailers, digital projects, online quizzes, digital artwork, motivation, school performance, get to know another culture, enhance adaptability, self-awareness and awareness of cultural differences which make Europe so diverse, and yet unitary.Teachers will have the opportunity to exchange good practices, teaching methods, ideas and will build up English and digital abilities, organizational skills, teaching methods and tools.Schools will advertise a positive self-image and become more visible in the community. They will acquire project management expertise and will act as an example for other schools to apply for projects.They will also become more united and a positive environment will be created among the members.
