The most important goal of each school is to equip students with
knowledge and skills which will enable them to continue their education at
a higher education level and enable them to function in European society.
It is also important to stimulate cognitive activity and to educate
creativity, develop interests, but also to educate openness on the world
and attitudes of tolerance and respect for other cultures.
Participation in the project "Know the world - know yourself" will
undoubtedly increase students motivation to learn. Implementing tasks in
cooperation with peers from other countries will develop knowledge of
foreign languages and information technology.Thanks to the factthat the
tasksimplementedwilllargely be based on theirinterests and talents,
children’ssense of the value and educationalsuccesswillincrease and
willhelpthem to undertakefurthereducationalchallenges.
The
possibility of comparing the acquiredknowledge with peers from
othercountrieswill be extremelymotivating for them. As part of the
project, we willstrive to ensurethat part of the tasksiscarried out by
studentsusing the groupworkmethod. We want to create as manysituations as
possible in whichstudentswouldhave the opportunity to carry out
theirowntasks and to learncooperation, responsibility, planning, how to
recognize and usetheirownskills.
The project "Know the world - knowyourself" wouldserve not only to
improvekeycompetences but alsogetting to knowourselves, ourtalents and
predispositions. Teachers from Poland, Italy, Spain and France will
present their own teaching styles and methods and will share their
experience and knowledge on activating learning methods. Together, they
will develop lesson plans, rules for competitions and student projects.
They will search for new methodological solutions to inspire
students to act and to promote their own development. An important element
of the project will also be searching for effective teaching methods for
children with special educational needs, so that they can also achieve
success. We want to prepare our projects, lessons and competitions so that
all students can take part in them and the learning makes them happy. As a
result of our project implementation, the quality of school work will be
improved, examples of good practice observed during participation in
training meetings in partner schools will be implemented.
Teaching materials developed by teachers during the project
(scenarios of lessons, celebrations, projects) will create a base of
educational help that can be used in subsequent school years. The
implemented activities will broaden the educational offer of schools.
Perhaps they will become the inspiration or the beginning of other
innovative activities.
We hope that they will integrate with the curricula being
implemented and that they will be a permanent element of school work. The
implementation of known good practices and innovations will improve the
competences of both students and teachers and deepen their sense of
European identity
