Project Summary

It was observed by all our partners during education and training that rapidly growing robotic applications in education attracted the interest and attention of the students and helped them to participate classes more effectively and more enthusiastically. Preparing today’s students requires educational systems to provide a core body of knowledge as well as a set of skills neede. At the same time the rapid growth of digital tools available increase the challenges of nowadays. The high exposure of 21st century students in web 2.0 tools, devices, and environments opens a window of new affordances, challenges, opportunities, and skills for learning/teaching and assessment.

The project is expected to have a fundamental and lasting impact on pedagogy and innovation in practice of teachers across Europe, modernizing and making more relevant and motivating many aspects of the teaching activity, through the use of new technology. The project has major potential for enhancing student understanding, reflection and collaborative contributions to the creation of knowledge in school across different subjects. The project also aims to influence students’ (and teachers’) attitudes, particularly their awareness of major issues such as global climate change and the importance of observing and monitoring the natural world, and to improve their knowledge and respect for the environment

Project aims:
1. Develop in students basic knowledge (based on national curriculum) and a set of skills necesary for 21st century students
2. Implement at school learners’ centred approaches based on self-regulated learning, self-reflections, peer assessment, collaborative work , etc
3. Use of relevant technology Robotics, Coding, Computational Thinking in order to engage students in the learning process
4. Create a at schools framework to introduce innovative learning and teaching practices and this will be done through improving teachers’ competences to implement innovative teaching approaches and also prepare teachers to assses students’ learning (both knowledge and skills)

Outputs:
Organizing training workshops, materials, services and resources to assist teachers design learning tasks for aligning learning goals and assessing transversal skills using ICT affordances and opportunities.
Sharing professional practice in relation to the development new learning and teaching methods and assessment of transversal skills.
A website with ten learning practices by country ready to use at the classroom on different subjects (using robotics, coding, etc) The materials will be in own laguage of the participants and in English.

There will be organized 5 LTTs (one per country) lasting 5 working days:
Italy – Computational thinking;
Turkey – Use of 3D printer;
Poland – Circuit drawing, simulation, animation and PCB drawing: Proteus;
Romania – Own designed robotic projects;
Greece- Open Source Coding: Scratch and Mblock Programming Languages.

To guarantee that the project is executed within scope, time and budget, assure the effectiveness of the project activities we create a Project Executive Board (PEB): main decision-making board, formed by one representative from each partner. It will define the strategic objectives, solve any conflicts between partners, manage necessary changes to the project and exploitation of common results.
