This project is aimed to work with our Secondary School students (12 to 18 yo.) in order to present the production and introduction to the market of products made out of recycled materials, do research into the economic viability and then transform all that into a business plan. This entrepreneurial venture will be the thread which will allow us to use RECYCLING ART to connect as many subjects as possible in order to give our students a new perspective about COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATION and develop the different kinds of intelligence so every pupil can be aware of their own abilities sharing the DIVERSE POINTS OF VIEW that the different countries and cultures taking part in the project can contribute to. The project will work with RECYCLING ART from two different perspectives: - From the entrepreneurial point of view to develop an entrepreneurial attitude, - From a creative way connecting the different curricula Besides, this project will bring us the opportunity to implement co-training activities for teachers based on each partner's strongest points. Our partnership is made up of 5 secondary schools from different countries: Spain, Hungary and Slovakia, whose schools are bilingual in English, an Italian one, which is a vocational school and will become bilingual next year and, although no bilingual, a Greek school where English is taught up to a B2 level. Each school has a strong and different ICT skill, which is bound to be essential for the project implementation. In our schools and at a national level we do not have a specific strategy for entrepreneurship education, except in Spain. We all have highly motivated students coming from different backgrounds and in some of our schools we can find some students with minor special educational needs, who need activities aimed to develop and enhance basic skills. OBJECTIVES: - Foster the awareness of the importance of minimizing the harm we do to the environment - Develop more attractive education to prevent drop-out - Enhance teachers' professional skills, including new pedagogies and ICT and CLIL based methodologies - Foster positive attitude towards the European project and the EU values - Improve the use of English as our common language to communicate - Increase the level of digital competence - Promote entrepreneurship education to develop active citizenship - Promote teachers' and students' mobility - Reinforce cooperation among partners from other countries - Foster multidisciplinary and inter-disciplinary approaches - Facilitate the validation of non-formal and informal learning and its permeability with formal education pathways - Reinforce comprehensive education to foster the assessment of transversal and key competences - Facilitate the use of EU recognition tool EUROPASS - Develop artistic skills ACTIVITIES AND METHODOLOGY 6 Transnational Project Meetings will be held, one at an early stage of the project to make the most important decisions on working plans and the other 5 will take place at the same time as the rest of the mobilities for students and teachers. 6 students per country will participate in 4 short term exchanges of groups of pupils where 5 open-Air Recycling Art Market, one in each country, will be organized. There, the products made during the project (sculptures, videos, mechanic recycled devices, decoration products, etc) will be displayed and ready to be sold. The content is based on a collaborative methodology starred by our learners although supported by their teachers. They will take part in every stage of the project: planning, organization and assessment. Teachers are also a target group, taking part in 5 short-term joint staff training events, which activities have been specially designed according to the needs faced during this project (web design, robotics, ICT, video editing, entrepreneurship and how to develop basic skills through artistic forms of expression) or in our daily work, either now or in the future (ICT integration in teaching and learning, CLIL methodology, integration of students with special needs, etc.). We expect our schools to have more modern and motivating teaching methods to prevent early drop-out, supporting an ICT-based, holistic approach of teaching and learning, reinforcing English language and basic skills. As we are working with recycled materials, we expect to raise consciousness about the need of promoting a more sustainable entrepreneurial point of view so that a proposal about a good waste management can be implemented at a local or regional level by our authorities. One of the added values for our schools will be their internationalization. This fact will ensure a common field to work with our partner countries and take part in regular exchanges (mobilities and on-line via eTwinning) after the project has finished, which will be beneficial for students, teachers, our own institutions and NA's, sharing on-line OER, workshops, seminars and talks.
