"Context/background of project:We decided to prepare the project “Our Digital Science Lab” taking into consideration: a/ the constant problems with learning Science subjects, b/ using the practical knowledge and skills from the area of Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geography, c/ poor exam results in the presented above subjects, d/ the demand for the science-oriented students and graduates of science studies, e/ high level of unemployment in our local areas. Objectives of the project: The project “Our Digital Science Lab” is aimed at developing key competences in the areas of Biology, Geography, Chemistry, Physics and foreign languages, using mathematical methods and digital tools. What is more, the students participating the project will have the opportunity to broaden their foreign language skills and digital competences. Our teachers’ experience will be the base for preparing new and interesting proposals (experiments, trips, active method lessons, local guides). Number and profile of participants: All students of our schools will participate in the activities organized during the project preparation, follow-up, implementation and dissemination. Some of the them will take active part in the mobilities. The choice of the students taking part in mobilities will be based on equal opportunities for male (50 %) and female (50 %), language skills and the interests and competence in the Science subjects. Some of the project participants will have economic,educational, geographical and social obstacles and demonstrate cultural differences.

We will exchange and share all the created teaching and learning materials between us and present them to the other schools and teachers, using online and digital. We will use ""Environmentally-friendly school - green programme"" in planning future curricula of various subjects in our schools."

Background of the project: before we started to write Pangea project we wanted our teachers and students to work together and gain experience in international cooperation and we wanted to focus on creativity and we also felt that our students don't really like reading and they don't know much about other countries literature which we thought were crucial if we wanted them to understand other nations culture. This project fitted well into the internationalising strategy of the school as six schools work together which gave the opportunity both for the students and the teachers to cooperate internationally, to practice English language, to meet peers from other EU countries.Objectives: our objectives were to promote the improvement of reading skills by reading short stories of six nations. We also aimed to make our students to study about cultures, international communication and as we involved ICT tools another objective was to make the participants use these tools to write a blog and to give presentations in different creative ways. At last but not least the promotion of the study of the English language was highlighted among the objectives as all the materials, lesson plans, the short stories, the communication went on in English.The participating organisations were Gimnazjum Nr 5 w Przemyslu from Poland (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/pangea-teams/poland/), Avonbourne Academy from UK (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/pangea-teams/united-kingdom/), WinNova from Finland (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/pangea-teams/finland/), MATSO Denizcilik Anadolu Meslek Lisesi from Turkey (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/pangea-teams/turkey/), IES GABRIEL MIRÓ from Spain (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/pangea-teams/spain/) and our school, Andrássy Catholic Business Academy from Hungary (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/pangea-teams/hungary/). The schools represented a wide range from general grammar schools to different types of vocational schools. We undertook the following main activities: we had six international project meetings where teachers and students representing their schools worked together in international teams and each of the schools presented one short story from their national literature using dramatisation, presentations, puppet show, mock-ups and cartoons, comics (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/). Between the transnational meetings the schools involved students in great numbers to read the short stories and to find creative ways to present them. In the schools there were exhibitions, afternoon literature classes, performances which the members of the participating groups published on the blogs of the project. The teachers worked on creating lesson plans and collecting tasks while they also annotated and supplemented the students' work (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com/category/lesson-plans/). The students received education to use ICT tools like Prezi, cartoon making programmes, blog writing. Results and impacts: our students have become more motivated to read in their mother tongue and in English. They gained experience in working in international cooperation. The number of participants at the national English reading competitions has tripled at Andrássy. Our students have become more open-minded and curious towards other cultures. The teachers have shared the tasks, excersises, lesson plans, presentations they had produced on six websites. The students and the teachers learnt to use several electronic devices such as desktop computers, laptops, e-book readers, tablets and smart phones. They have learnt to create tasks with ICT tools and they have learnt to use Prezi software. The organisational and intercultural skills of participants also have improved. Another very important result is a website (https://pangeateam.wordpress.com) which contains all the blogs, lesson plans, activities that we have done.Longer term benefits: since we published the results of the project online all the teachers of literature and English will be able to use these materials of the short stories for motivation and cultural improvements in their classes. Another long term benefit is that the participants have become committed to reading, studying, getting to know other nations, habits; have gained experience in foreign countries which will enhance their willingness to take part in other international projects; have become more motivated to improve their English language competences.

The project ” All for a greener Europe” is based on mutual interest of the participants towards a more environmentally conscious life and is devoted to work on topics related to nature, green tourism and eco tourism. It is composed of seven countries Abergele-Conwy (Wales), Istanbul(Turkey), Bremen(Germany), Bydgoszcz (Poland), Gran Canary (Spain), Karlskrona (Sweden), Horjul (Slovenia), La Spezia (Italy). All of the participating countries are aware of the dramatic situation caused by Global warming and are aware of the fact that transportation, travelling and tourism are also contributors to the greenhouse effect.Our main goal is to analyse current trends in tourism and promote future trends which are inter-twinned with culture, traditions environment and heritage. By involving international cooperation, we will compare cultural and eco-tourism with standard tourism and solve tourism related problems finding new creative methods and techniques.The main issues are to provide students and teachers with a deeper understanding of responsible tourism and to widen their knowledge in subjects connected to culture, history, traditions, gastronomy, environmental protection, English language and ICT whilst integrating students who come from different cultural backgroundsThe project promotes a development away from typical consumer oriented tourism towards tourism that focuses on cultural and environmental encounters and requires more responsibility from the key figures in tourism: tourists and specialists in tourism alike.Completing the project tasks and activities (visiting each other‘s countries, making mini–tour guides and itineraries, creating presentations and booklets etc.) will prepare our students to become open-minded, culture-conscious citizens and skilled travellers, who are consciously protecting the value of their touristic environment.International cooperation - common methods based on cooperative learning - will let us build a group and will promote collaboration. The project will put schools into cooperation with local, national and international institutions and organisations and it will encourage cross-curricular approaches. In order to get the partners to work towards a common purpose, staff will interact effectively with each other, creating international teams and sharing experiences whilst providing a unique opportunity for partners to input their own expertise and learn from each other.The project will have both intangible results (new content learned by the participants, improved learning in relevant subject areas, new skills acquired )and tangible results (concrete products). We will use the outcomes as a measure of the extent to which the project has contributed to the learning experiences of those involved and the quality of education on offer in the schools participating. The partnership will have a positive impact on the participating institutions by building a community consisting of teachers and students who have a strong commitment to and a sense of ownership of the project. By creating and carrying out several creative dissemination techniques and activities, it will also enable a wider community (stakeholders, parents, school authorities, hotels )to benefit from our partnership in the long run.
