Project Summary

RED;This project depends on feeling a real necessity to be educated on learning a foreign language and arise the level of consciousness about cultural values by using effective ways that excite learners and teachers,like cultural characters(colors).Enthusiastic and social students’ dense insists made us
concentrate on this project.Because there is an excessive individualism which leads students to forget others. Also because of having an aim like being a member of EU,it has been thought that something must be done about cultural interaction. One of the basic aim is to spread the consciousness of being European. This awareness solely can be improved by learning the cultural characters or values of relevant.
By integrating cultural characters of societies we aimed to break up the prejudices among cultures and increase the level of tolerance. And we believe that our environment-especially participants-need to be minded about intercultural values.

We have formed a partnership who are into reaching the objectives:
-To raise the level of awareness among students, teachers, parents and community about international and common values of being
human, having a common humanity heritage and their cultural characters in stories increased at least 50%
-develop our students’ consciousness of being European Citizen
-create new learning methods and most importantly crash the bias between cultures
-To analyse the educational contexts of all partners and base project activities on identified needs
-To verify and check the results of the project comparing the starting situation with the reality prior,while and after some project activity is implemented.
-To disseminate the results of the project in other institutions with similar education context in order to spread its results.

The outcomes and values of this project will make a new line in our educational methods and give us new viewpoints to EU.In addition,as the project coordinator, we aimed proving that all people can be educated not only by limited inners but also by these kinds of free projects.
The participating organisations aim at reinforcing cooperation between students,schools,and also communities in what concerns the promotion of values decreasing level of people’s misunderstanding issues and improving academic achievement in schools by sharing good practices in enhancing and promoting values.

For all these purpose motto RED (Respect, Equality, Diversity) took place in our project’s headline. Activities were designed to achieve the objectives of the project having in mind the need to develop entrepreneurship(short movie about cultural protagonists etc.) autonomy(All the tasks will be performed in English; videos,presentations,using blog and facebook,etwinnig) The quality of a project requires being educated and expert.So our coordinators attended seminar
about EU projects at different sessions. While maintaining the project we will especially focus on the methodology of Education from the nearest to the furthest.

Monitoring and evaluation will be used in continuous process of assessing the progress mod towards stated objectives so that gaps between the original project plan and actual achievements can be identified and corrected. We prepared a dissemination plan to promote an ongoing exchange of information.For this reason, we prepared a blog and used facebook to raise awareness of the contribution of students’ community and schools.Also we aim to prepare a website to share experiences and new ideas about project.

This project consists of 10 teachers and 30 students(12-17 years old) at least for each school. In the end, all partners will acquire new learning and teaching methods,gain new experiences in the field of cultural education,like cooperation,time management team group work …etc. All in all they will be professional about intercultural interaction,overcome cultural prejudice,learn daily language,have self-importance of learning by doing.
