FINISHED
Project NICE (NATURE IN COOPERATIVE EDUCATION) wants to link the central idea of the relationship between man and nature and the ability of teachers to transfer their pupils these values by a new training methodology which will develop a “training path” among this central idea and a stronger awareness among young generations.
To do this, project will develop actions and activities involving teachers, as tools to transfer knowledge, to develop critical skills.
Involved teachers belong to primary schools of the four participating countries (Italy, Great Britain, Slovenia and Malta) and they will be pointed out in schools or they will be able to voluntary choose to participate. The subject they teach has not importance because a main feature of the project is its strong interdisciplinary.
Added value of NICE is given by the methodology of training – action which will allow the acquisition of transversal and strategic skills, comparable and sharable in a European context, able to be replicate and disseminate by a constant peer to peer training.
Main objective of NICE is to promote among beneficiaries of first level (teachers) and second level (students) the knowledge and importance of agriculture by understanding the existing relationships among production, food consumption and sustainability of environment.
All project activities will focus on training moment using a training - action method . The following activities will be implemented:
- (i)creation of a virtual platform realized by a web site 2.0, Bank of Experiences , that will be the main tool for trainers, teachers and project users, giving tools and means to plan, realize and monitor training paths..
- (ii) The realisation foresees the research of more significant experiences.
-(iii) Together with the research it is foreseen the creation of the web site to foster and disseminate project values.
- (iv)Teachers who at the end of the experience will be able to enrich the Bank of experiences, will be able to enroll in the NICE BOOK and will be able to participate in training activities foressen by the project.
-(v) Each year NICE FESTIVAL will be realized during which they will present how to participate in the activities and Bank of Experiences.
