We will report the results in the end of the project and share our methodology by curricula makers,teachers groups and experts in School Education Gateaway Portal.
– Beside low academic success the participant schools include Romas and minorities.Through this project we will give chance to disadvantged pupils (who are Romas and minority and who have low academic success) to discover their skills and potential and make them keep attending lessons .

All results will be publicly available and each activity will be seized to measure the success of the project.
We will share our methods and results with stakeholders (teachers groups,school education gateaway, curricula meetings,and education governers in the local).So that this project, beside increasing school motivation in a short time among disadvantaged students and failed students , will help to shape the future curriculums and education methodologies in the long term.
The project will not only improve academic success but also disseminate the eTwinning portal in each community.In the P activity, each school will hold a dinner with the school principles,and keen teachers who are interested in international projects.The students will share their experineces with a Video show and play the Works composed during the Project process. In this activity we want to prove that Erasmus+ is easy and eTwinning broaden the minds and improves Project based learning methods.
