Project Summary

Music is not only art, but also a powerful medium of communication. Notes can reach our ears 24 hours a day and they do not need any translation. Furthermore it doesn’t matter if you are a young person or an adult, music will be part of your everyday life.
Through the knowledge of folklore and cultural heritage we aim to promote internationalization among our students and our teachers. Tracing similarities and differences between our countries, students and teachers will get to know each other’s country’s background and will be projected with greater awareness in the international reality we live in. This awareness will lead our students to become promoters of international entrepreneurship among young people.
Music improves skills such as listening, expression, writing, reading and singing. It affects people’s feelings, increases interest towards topics that may not be very interesting to the eye of students, improving learning transfer and retention. Music entertains, but moreover it can educate if the artists understand their audience and what kind of information they need.
The first part of the project focuses on the sharing knowledge of folklore and cultural heritage among European partners. Then it will focus on composing music and songs to express and communicate the new gained awareness.
Our students will improve their skills and master a medium with which they can be able to change the world.
The objectives we would like to achieve are to build the awareness of international connections among European countries and therefore to improve international dialogues and relations, encouraging our students to be more open minded; to raise international entrepreneurship, to improve creativity and strengthen cooperation among young people; to make our students conscious of the works they can do in this international reality; to use ICT as an instrument for international communication, elaboration, evaluation and growth.
Comparing methods of teaching and learning of European partners and their values of education and curricula, will lead all partners to adapt to innovative ways of teaching and learning, methods that will be fundamental for this project and for future school strategic partnerships.
Reaching these objectives our students will improve their skills and master a medium with which they can be able to become promoters of international entrepreneurship among young people, and thus change the world.
The planned activities are going to lead to achievement of the project’s objectives by means of improving students skills and letting them be able to master a medium with which they can be able to become promoters of international entrepreneurship among young people.
