Schools from Lithuania, Germany, France and Slovakia wanted to be joint partners in a project with a scientific background. OneNeeds analysis revealed different competence deficits at different schools: The use of ICT tools for teachers and students in learning processes were insufficient and therefore this was the focus of attention and took the current development into account. The development of digital media is taking rapidly, leaving a large gap for use in educational contexts.Second, there was a great lack of knowledge about the production and preservation of food in all schools. The families use more and more non homemade food and they have easy access to a wide variety in supermarkets without thinking about where the food is coming.In addition, the awareness of the need for good language skills for communication between international partners in universities and companies and especially English as the language of science also for the publication of research results and cooperation between was too little for researchers.From this position, the partners derived various goals to fill these gaps:- Promotion of the acquisition of skills and competencies- Increase digital skills for the educational environment and create innovative learning methods- Performance of experiments on food preservation- Research of the cultural heritage and traditions in relation to preservation of food- Development of language skills, in particular the scientificVocabulary for communication and collaborationStudents aged 15/16 years participated in various activities:- conducting scientific experiments, using mobile technologies (tablets, smartphones), exploring the cultural, historical and culinary heritage with field trips, collaboration in the eTwinning Twinspace, creation of online presentations, storytelling and cards, quizzes and posters. The students were made aware that they can use their own food products such as herb mixes, cheese, cucumbers or salty be able to produce herb. By learning how to use their hands and heads, they became more self-confident and proud of what they had produced themselves. Also they learned and used the scientific terminology. In this way, the students were better prepared for the choice of their future profession, also in European context, prepared. For the teachers, this meant professional development in the use of innovative digital media, a refreshing of the use of foreign languages and an expansion of their teaching methods, especially through experimentation. The longer term benefits showed also in the application of the acquired skills in their own lessons.Pupils were better prepared for a life with digital skills, they can better look after their health and well-being and have gained valuable experience in working with other students. This also had effects and benefits in the cancellation of the last meeting in Berlin in March 2020 due to Corona. Thus, digital media, which had previously been used for were used. In the same way, communication between teachers was increasingly taking place digitally, which was also used for further training and competence development of the teachers.
