It arises from the need to make students aware of the importance of healthy and sport lifestyles among teenagers all over the world in a technological society of the XXI century. All the patner schools have asked the school communities to answer a questionaire on their food and sport habits. The results show that the students want more sport lessons and nutrition lessons as well.The title, ""Healthier minds, Smarter minds"" results from some research studies which state that if students have a healthy lifestyle, they can learn better and improve results. Not to mention the importance of improving their self-steem, their physical appearance, so important when they are teenagers, and the fact that sport strenghthens the social ties that can be sometimes difficult to tackle together with students with special needs. On the one hand, there is an increase of unbalanced food among people in a society with many economic problems. On the other hand, we have to take into account the sedentary life that nowadays favours habits of staying at home playing online computer games,social networks and play stations.The fact that having a new and innovative school in Sweden( MTH utbildning AB) gives the project a reference of the ideal kind of school for our students. The project activities will involve collaborative work among the students of the partner schools, leading to different material created by students, such as the creation of Apps, websites and different digital products dealing with the Mediterranean diet and sport world and lifestyle, which will include the use of videos, interviews, slides, research and documentation, will be accurately collated and revised by the Erasmus teaching staff committee with the use of evaluation rubrics. The fact that two sport schools are also involved in the project, it will help us provide the maximum detailed information and specific background to the project during the two years.There is also a need to improve social inclusion in the school communities and include students with special needs in the European project so as to improve our teaching methods and learning strategies. We wll be able to take advantage of the Mediterranen Games which will have taken place in Tarragona in June this year 2018, information we will have at first hand about games, organization and results. The project is current and innovative because it tackles an important issue for teenagers nowadays. This issue has become one of the most relevant ones in our present society among teenagers, their health, both physically and mentally, it is directly related to the food they eat and the amount of sport they practise. The project is considered innovative because students will work collaboratively with European teenagers creating apps and other digital products included in the activities proposed along the project. As far dissemination is concerned, students of each participating school will also be European ambassors of good healthy habits and sport lifestyle in the different primary, secondary schools, local health centres and town hall of each country, not to mention the spreading of their project among higher education, such as the Technological Nutrition and Health Institute (CTNS)in Spain where the future nutrition professionals are formed, the education department to let them know about the need to change the school curricula and other local communities, such as Parents' associations or youth centres of each partner country and giving lectures about our European project to students in the Secondary Teachers' Master course for future teachers to let them know about our results. Although it is true that our school has not participated in an Erasmus project during the last three years, the school has participated in other local school projects, such as the Green school projects, GEP project participation some years ago(Experimenting Plurilingualism Group) and the German exchange some students took part in last year."

The topic is developed by a scientific, bioethic, philosophical and religious point of view. The objectives of the project are different and focus on several key factors such as the development of civic, social and intercultural competences; the promotion of innovative solutions to ensure competences acquired through an informal, formal, and non formal learning; the promotion of the internationalisation, the development of the critical mindset, especially considering the cultural and environmental aspect of science; the adoption of an holistic approach in the learning of foreigner languages and the development of ICT skills using them in a creative way.Thirty-two students and eight teachers will be directly involved in the project, but the activities led at school will interest a major number of students and teachers.The project activities will be structured in the following way:1. The first activity is to prepare a questionnaire to give to the students involved in the project, whose aim is to investigate their previous knowledge about the topic.2. Then the students will be asked to investigate the topic using the methodology of brainstorming, web quest and debating. This activity will increase their knowledge and develop their sensitivity. During this classroom activity, they will look for information in the internet, they will read documents arranged by the teachers and will get in touch with the main associations for organ donation in their countries. Cooperative learning activities about stem cells will be done during this phase. 3. Students will attend conferences, seminars and lectures organised by the school whose aim is give them an holistic vision of the theme proposed by different points of views. Doctors, biologists, philosophers, religious people, common men and women who have received an organ or struggle with this problem will be invited at school to give their support to the project and increase the students' knowledge of the proplem/topic.4. Students will be asked to create posters with slogans to be put at school and in town. The best slogan and poster will become the official logo of the project and will be put in the website.5. Students will create a brochure using softwares like Padlet to promote Organ Donation6. Students will organise a Donor's day at school and they will distribute their brochures to disseminate to all the school's population their work and at the same time to make people aware of the problem. They will also organize a visit in the nearby schools to disseminate their activity.7.Students will create a website and they will communicate using the twinspace because they will divide tasks and each country will develop a particular aspect of the topic:scientific: how can stem cells research solve the problem of the lack of organs?religious: what do the main religions think about organ donation?bioethical: what are the reasons behind the refusal of families to authorise explant? and how a ops-out law (presumed consent) would be seen by the public opinion? statistic:survey: how is organ donation approach changed in the last 20 years? All these activities will be shown and discussed during the transnational learning teaching trainings.8. Each country will create a video to promote organ donation and this is a competitive part because the best video will be awarded. Students will create an on line survey to vote the best video. All the video will be uploaded on twinspace, youtube and their website so that it can be useful to disseminate their activity as much as possible.9. Students will be asked to write a script to be performed during their last transnational meeting whose focus is to propose possible solutions according to their knowledge. This part will develop their critical thought, their language skills and their creativity.The methodology used will be cooperative learning, pair/group work, role playing, brainstorming, web quest and problem solving; all the methologies used are suitable to a student-centred perspective of learning/teaching. The expected results are not only an increased sensitivity towards the issue of organ donation, but even a concrete involvement of students in the improvement of the good practice of becoming organ donation. The desired impact of the project is to make them Organ Ambassadors outside their schools: in their families, and in all the social agencies they belong to. This project offers many long term advantages such as the annual organisation and celebration of the Organ Donation Day at school may become a common scholar practice. Moreover the project may open an important window on a theme not often debated in society but of fundamental importance. At last all the products realised can contribute to disseminate the project and the topic.
