APPROVAL E-TWINNING PROJECT

Dear collegues , we have just received the approval of the program. Anyone wishing to join let us send a request to add it to the program.

OUR PROJECT

Dear colleagues, 

The program has been uploaded to the e-twinning. We are waiting for the approval in order to have the platform open. If anyone of you want to join, please answer positively so we can add you as coworker. Here is the General Description, the Acrivities and the Results. Thank you

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Europe is the common house of millions of citizens from different countries. Countries with different language, religion and civilization co-exist adopting the common European values, as they have been defined by the official bodies of the European Union. The values of Freedom, Democracy, Equality, the Rule of Law, Dignity and Adherence to Human Rights constitute the basis of Europe.

The former values should be looked up and be presented by the students of the schools that will work upon the specific programme. Through looking for historic events, people and monuments both in the past and at present, students will be able to better understand the values mentioned above.

The cultural elements of each country play an important role in the formation of those values. Their presentation and understanding by the citizens of the other countries promotes tolerance and coexistence and strengthens the total value of the European Union.

We could say that Europe is like a colorful carpet, each different fabric of which makes the carpet even more beautiful and valuable.

The projects will be presented at the e-twinning webpage and each school will post their projects either in text, video or picture.  The projects can also be in the form of theatrical plays as well as songs. Each teacher can choose their own way of presenting the projects, always following their own working manner.

The teachers are responsible for posting the projects on the e-twinning webpage. English will be the language of communication. An exception will be made for the presentation of songs and theatrical plays, which the students can present in their mother tongue.

This programme should be open to the community of the participant schools, thus the teachers should make sure that the students parents will have access to the students’ projects. This does not mean that parents can edit projects; this is exclusively a matter of the teachers.

The presentation of the programme to the society of each school increases the value of our students’ projects and strengthens the notion of common Europe in the citizens of each country.

AIMS

The tasks of the project should aim at letting students recognize and feel that the values of peace and living together in harmony are necessary to promote prosperity as well as economic, spiritual and cultural development so that mistakes of the past are not repeated. In addition, it is necessary that the students discover and get to know the most significant human achievements that helped people be led towards common pursuits and objectives of spiritual development and the prosperity of Europe.

Moreover, we want students to learn to accept difference and fight against social discriminations so that wars and military conflicts can be avoided in the future. Also, we want them to understand the meaning of rejecting discrimination, that happen due to religion, sex, different beliefs and external characteristics of the people. Through multiculturalism, students become accustomed to, learn, respect, accept and promote peaceful and creative coexistence.

The aim is to understand that Europe represents our common house and that it should be formulated as a place without intellectual borders, where ideas, values and achievements such as freedom, safety and justice can be generously provided to all its people.

The use of New Technologies will give students the opportunity to communicate and cooperate with students from other countries in accordance to the goals we have set above. Finally , students will understand that the common cultural heritage is a result of the whole of the civilizations of each nation.

WORK PROCESS

School teachers can apply their own work programme.

New technologies will be the most essential communication tool between the members of the project.

The use of Skype, Social Networks and e-mail will be the media through which teachers and students will not only, work together but they will also develop links and relationships.

During the first term, schools can look up and post information about people whose life and actions gave boost to Democracy and Peace of Europe.

During the second term, schools can look up information and work upon the negative elements of Europe which should not be repeated.

Finally, schools can post their own cultural projects, plays, posters, songs, etc which promote European Culture, peace, Democracy and co-existence of the people

EXPECTED RESULTS

The results of the project will be posted on a public twinspace . The production of posters, videos, songs and plays are expected results.

Finally, there will be a questionnaire analyzing whether the objectives of the project have been met
