Folkloricity: Living Culture

Description

Folcloricity (FOLC) is an intercultural project based on the idea that music and dance are a part of the integral heritage of each nation. As such, we believe that these disciplines have the unquantifiable capacity to motivate students, and exposure to them will provide a unique opportunity in their educational process. Hence, Folcloricity has the potential to positively impact students’ personal and professional lives in the future. Furthermore, our project aims to highlight the importance of: Europeanization, modernization, and awareness of democratic values through equal and cooperative work.Our objectives will align with the SMART system (the objectives will be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and linked to Time).The specific objectives can be summarized as follows:Improve the relationship of students with their school to alleviate school absenteeism.Use innovative strategies through music to offer holistic teaching.Improve teaching through cooperative work with counterparts.Expand the horizons of students and increase their aspirations through collaborative activities with counterparts from other countries.Instill European democratic values to students.Mitigate the disadvantages of access to education.End stereotypes and improve coexistence.Bring exposure to the folklore of each participating member.Value Nature as an integral part of cultural heritage.Lead change and innovation in the educational field and establish the center as a centre of social dynamism.The coordinating center - IES El Valle in Hinojos - has experience in the eTwinning platform, having participated in the European Culture Olympics projects (ID163065 YEAR 2017/2018) for which it won the Mediterranean Prize demonstrating our ability to tackle a project of this magnitude. Currently, we are involved in the Young Biography Writer eTwinning project (ID18676, Year 2018/2019).Consequentially, an eTwinning project has been created ad hoc, in which there will be a staff forum for the exchange of opinions and audiovisual material. This project will serve to maintain and promote lasting relationships between the partners and accommodate new participants, as well as being a fundamental instrument for the dissemination of FOLC. The eTwinning, School Education Gateway and European Shared Tresure platforms were used to search for partners. The participants have a wide experience that helps us in our first coordination in Erasmus + projects.The associated centers are:IES El Valle in Spain: organizing country with experience in eTwinning.Karstulan Lukio Institute in Finland, a country of educational reference.Liceul Teoretic Henri Konda and Gymnasioum of Livadeia in Romania with disadvantaged students and extensive experience in European projects (Erasmus + and in Comenius multilateral projects).During the planning of the activities, the priorities and objectives, participants, tasks, timing, results and resources necessary to carry them out have all been taken into account. The results of the project will be tangible (presentations, audiovisual material and the Musical Book) and intangible (improvement of the expectations of the students, their perception of the institute and Europeanization).In summary, the activities are: workshops of creation and musical production, cultural visits, talks and conferences, and the finally: the creation of a Musical Book.All activities are related to the traditional dance culture, music and folklore of each nation and are aimed at improving communicative skills, the development of cultural and artistic competence, and education in values. With this methodology, students can go beyond the textbook and explore data, knowledge and experiences directly and immediately, as well as visually and audibly.The evaluation of the expected results, both tangible and intangible, will be useful to adjust the plans and ensure the long-term impact of the project. The evaluation will be carried out through quantitative indicators whenever possible. Certification is included in the management of the project, for which tools such as Europass mobility and Seneca will be used (in addition to other certificates issued by the participants themselves).The project is intended for the benefit of the entire community, including the local community of the municipality. Each country will be responsible for a series of actions to disseminate the project through web pages, blogs, press releases, social networks, eTwinning and Twinspace, School Education Gateway, Erasmus + results platform, Europass mobility certificate signage and an exhibition gallery of project photos. We will pay special attention to the correct use of European official logos as established in the National Agency corporate identity page. This diffusion will cover three areas: local, national and international.The contribution of this project will aid the growth of European citizens.
