Final ReportDigital engine to successThe main reason why teachers chose his project was a certain degree of cluelessness among students concerning the requirements and opportunities of the European job market. Therefore, motivating our students to deal with aspects of how to choose a career has been our goal .The project has been conducted by The Berlin College of Further Education for Information Technology and Medical Equipment Technology and the Florida Centre de Formacio ; COOP in Catarroja/Valencia/Spain.Both schools offer courses in general and vocational education subjects at grades 11 to 13. Florida Centre de Formacio also offers courses at secondary level (ESO). Participants were students from the 11th grade of our specialised grammar school and students from the fourth grade of ESO which corresponds to the tenth grade in Germany.Gathering and exchanging material about choosing the right career and options for internships, application strategies and study opportunities in Germany and Spain has been on the agenda. The results have been published on a website that can be used as an inspiration or a source of reference.Creating this website required a certain command of programming and language skills.Working in teams consisting of students from Valencia and Berlin, they attended different career advice centres and careers fairs. They put together common application forms, reports about internships, wordlists, created videos, translated interviews, added subtitles.During their stays students also explored the history and the culture of the cities. As a result, this website is available now. Participants have made great progress with regard to their language skills, their ability to work together and coping with problems. They also learned a lot about career options.In addition, these topics have been widely discussed in families and schools, not only by those involved in the project.In the long run, this website will be available to the public and can be used in classes. Contents and translations will be updated on a regular basis. Thus it can be used in the fields of career advice, language practice and infromation technology.All in all, this project has been a highly intense, positive experience of working together with young people from a different European country. The teachers involved in this project will make use of the contacts they made, e.g. by placing students into internships.
