Project Summary

Historical heritage is often unknown or ignored by teenagers. This project will promote access to culture, especially for french and Spanish students who, for cultural, social and economic reasons, cannot benefit from these heritage sites.

With the help of new technologies, we will implement activities that will promote public awareness of the existence of a cultural heritage and of common European values similarities and differences among nations.

The 42 participants are aged 15 to 19 years old and are from very different cultural backgrounds.

The objectives of our project will be to build a European identity and to better understand how to live together; to favour their geographical mobility; to build experiences allowing them to develop and strengthen their self-esteem; to master new technologies of digital tools witch they could use in their daily life.

For teachers we aim at comparing our experiences and our ways of teaching, at enriching our professional teaching practices at increasing the cultural experiences of our school and making our carrer more attractive.

Before the exchanges, students will complete a research work on their cities and their regions that they will introduce to others through videos, written travel diaries, and digital ones in their native and foreigh languages.

They will show you the places that matter to them so, as producers, editors or readers they will have to gather, analyze the information and think about their presentation. They could thus carry on their language and digital skills, be more aware of their culyural expression and their social and civil duties.

The eTwinning platform information and documents will be collected and will benefit the entire education community.

Through this experience participants could realize what the European dimension means both in the emergence of new professions and in the need to share knowledge. Therefore the student will be able to study or work abroad with fewer tensions and unknown.
