Start date: Jun 26, 2014, End date: Jun 25, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

This project has the goal to improve the skills of teachers in the use of ICT in their daily lessons and to develop the internationalization of the school. Also at our school the hardware is at place, but there is a lack of in-service-training offers in Rhineland-Palatinate for teachers in primary schools to assist them in the educational usefull use in daily school life. Seminars can also act only selectively, job shadowing over a longer period , however, provides a comprehensive insight into the daily lessons. Job shadowing teaching staff know also the "stumbling stones" in the use of new technologies (in contrast to a training course of a few hours in the "laboratory situation" of an in-service-training centre). Overall, we send out during the project period 15 teachers. Seven teachers will each carry out a one-week job-shadowing at our partner schools in Eskisehir / Turkey , Misso / Estonia and Silkeborg / Denmark (2 schools). With these institutions we are connected in past and ongoing Comenius and Regio projects and so we could win in the past already insight into the innovative use of tablets, interactive whiteboards / screens and e - schoolbooks or school social work. Two other teachers will each teach a week as part of an eTwinning project in Eskisehir / Turkey. Together teaching staff and students are geocaching during English lessons to explore the school environment with GPS devices and their own devices . In the second eTwinningproject children learn LEGO-Robotics, build the first models and present / compare them with the models that are built in parallel at our school. Per eTwinning platform and Skype teachers and stundents communicate together. In a training course in Spain take part two teachers to develop their ICT skills in the area of tablet PCs and learn new teaching and learning methods, new educational apps. Two teachers attend the BETT show in London and learn the latest developments in the field of ICT in the education sector and attend to the offered seminars. All actions are to be seen under the aspect of improving key skills of teachers and students. The reference frame of 2006 issued in the Recommendation of the European Parliament and of the Council on key competences for lifelong learning comprises eight key competences : - Computer skills - Initiative and entrepreneurship - Communication in foreign languages - Cultural awareness and expression. - Learning to learn - Mathematical competence and basic competences in science and technology; - Mother tongue - Social and civic competence Among the main objectives of the reference frame belongs , "to identify the key competencies an d to define which are necessary in a knowledge society for personal fulfillment, active citizenship, social inclusion and employability". Each of these key skills is thereby assigned the same meaning as each of them can contribute to a successful life in a knowledge society . Both the Standing Confernce (Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs of the Länder in the Federal Republic of Germany) and the Bund-Länder Commission for Educational Planning and Research Promotion ( BLK) demand to expand the key skills to media literacy , as the digital media keep increasing ınfluence into society. (Source: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlüsselqualifikation ) We want to address with these measures we apply to make our school, our students and teachers (more) competent for a world (of work) of digital media. But important in all the above mentioned measures for us is also to find potential partners for future strategic projects. As well at purely school level as well as in cooperation with universities We hope that the experiences made in the pedagogical use of ICT, school social work and internationalization makes our teaching more effective and motivating for both the teaching staff and also for the students.
