Project Summary

The project finds its origin during the training course TCA ” long term study mobility ” organized by the spanish Erasmus agency in October, 2018 in Tenerife of the joint will of Antone Barral, italian subject teacher (Pape Clément) and Liliane Garcia Mateo French teacher ( Canonigo Manchon) to work on the elaboration of a project mixing language learning and good eating habits. Approached, Gesuina Cottu (French, Città di Piero) already in connection with Pape Clément via middle-term individual exchanges, is deeply interested in the project. Afterward, Elise Bulatovic teacher (spanish, Pape Clément) with Serbian origin goes to Belgrade to look for a high school partner and meets, with the support of the French cultural Institute, the management team of the high school n°3 and teachers who support the project enthusiastically.
The four schools are complementary through their geographical diversity and their pedagogical similar profiles: they all offer a scientific and linguistic instruction and have been involved for a long time in European exchanges.
The four partners agree on the need to address the common concerns of young Europeans about food practices and the need to exchange and feed on the difference of others.
The objectives of the project are to improve the language level of the participants through communication by using the three languages of the project (Spanish, French and Italian) and to enable young people, through crossing their views, to recognise the importance of sustainable, proximity and quality food.
It has been agreed that the local committees composed of science and foreign language will sponsor 20 students learning two among the three languages of the project (French, Italian, Spanish) from 15 to 17 years old. They will be involved in the mobilities 10 by 10.
Exchanges among partners will be frequent and will take place in particular through the etwinning platform. The students, at the heart of the project, are a proposal force. They will benefit from training in photo, radio and video tools in order to make reports in connection with the project. They will organize the schedule of meetings and activities before the mobilities. These mobilities will make it possible to confront the partners directly on a daily basis and to carry out on site studies and field surveys which will be formalized once the participants will be back at school.
By crossing the views and regular practice of the foreign languages applied to the project, its realization will enable participants to gain autonomy at work, and to implement and disseminate the food recommendations that will emerge. A trilingual lexicon booklet, recipes and photos, as well as a roll-up mobile exhibition, will serve as project testimonials and will make it possible to disseminate this review to other institutions.
