PROJECT
FINISHED
Starting in September 2016, this two-year project will involve my school "CEIP Manuel de Falla" Jerez, Spain with three other school (2 Northern Ireland, Ireland) where different teachers, Headmasters and Vice-headmasters can do "Job- shadowing" .Focusing on developing skill, knowledge and attitudes that help pupils with special needs and with the idea of attention to diversity for tomorrow´s world of work.We are confident that our project will keep in mind the main points:-Quality of education for all through equity and equal opportunities.-Face new challenges and difficulties.- Attend to students’ needs.- Respect students’ physical, cognitive and affective development.-Respect students’ learning styles and pace.-Provide them with the required educational support.What competencies should an educator develop?+Ability to diagnose and analyse training needs and plan teaching modalities and strategies.+Contextualised syllabus design+Ability to provide students with learning opportunities adapted to their individual, group and centres’ characteristics.+Communication abilities. Active listening.+Ability to assess learning processes and making improvement decisions.+Ability to manage ICT.The Culture of Enterprise nowadays is a way of thinking and living; supporting the enrichment of ideas and new focuses, taking maximum advantage of opportunities, and developing a balanced leadership and a global vision. As a result, we have the foundation of new values and beliefs that benefit entrepreneurs, education, economy, and overall, society.Regarding enterprise in preschool and primary education, our center takes the following as pivotal points when teaching:+ To generate knowledge and support the development of the habits, attitudes, and values needed to produce actions for personal growth and transformations towards better environments and society.+ To satisfy the social needs of our community, in an ethical manner, with a sense of social responsibility and a perspective of sustainable development. Under the basis of enterprise, the existing focus of our bilingual center is to work on AICLE with some essentials like:* The language (L1/L2) is used not only to learn certain specific contents; moreover the language has to be learned with the final objective of general knowledge and command of the language.* The subject that is being reviewed is what determines the type of language/vocabulary that needs to be learned.* Flow is more important than grammatical precision and linguistics in general.* As observed, all of these principals reflect that, with regards to ACLI/CLIL, collaboration between L2 specialists and the ones in the different subjects is imperative. Collaboration is just as important when it comes to learning material design as much as it is when it comes to the development of lesson plans.Under these principals, “Don´t get left behind” (Atencion a la Diversidad en un Centro Bilingüe), our 2 year project, wants to utilize job-shadowing, in two centers in Belfast, UK and other one in Kildare, Ireland, to develop strategies and to share knowledge and attitudes that can help prepare the students for the job market in tomorrow’s society. Teachers share ideas about teaching maths and enterprise, encouraging more creativity in the classroom.This will be demonstrated by attitudinal questionnaires both beforehand and afterwards.Greater understanding, awareness and respect for what it means to be European and for each other’s cultures.Teachers and pupils gain confidence through shared activities and teamwork across European classrooms.Pupils gain greater awareness of world cultures and issues around Fair Trade and activities like "Cube of Love " / "Calendar of the Year" will be shown in a special meeting "Drums for Peace"Special needs pupils gain confidence through involvement in all activities across the curriculum.
