Project Progress Review (Logo competition, Travel Insurance, Criteria for selecting pupils and teachers)
Make plans for the sharing and promotion of our project results
Responsibilities for disseminating the project results and products
Developing the project sustainability strategy. The Turkish teacher helped to divide the work of the intellectual outputs by helping the project coordinator to explain how the ebook “School Climate guide” should be structured.
The main agenda items and outcomes of the meeting:
Project Progress Review:
The logo competition took place on 1 November 2022 via Mentimeter. The winner was declared on 14 November 2022: an Italian logo won the competition. From now on, the winning logo will be used on all official documents.
With regard to travel insurance for Covid, each school contacted insurance agencies and considered the best offer per country.
The criteria for selecting pupils and teachers to participate in future LTTAs. The criteria for choosing the pupils who will participate in the LTTAs are: readiness to express themselves in English, basic ICT skills, adaptability to different cultural contexts, collaborative approach to learning, the number of pupils involved in each LTTA, which will possibly be equal numbers of boys and girls.
In each school, a committee was formed to choose the criteria for the teachers who will be part of the LTTA: Level B1 English, basic digital skills, good communication skills and adaptability to different cultural contexts, active participation in project activities, willingness to organise workshops upon return from the mobility.
As far as dissemination is concerned, each country has decided on local targeted audiences and will make contact with local associations and schools. A series of conferences are also planned in each country to disseminate the actions and contents of our project.
The project foresees the creation of intellectual outputs through the production of an e-book called “School’s Climate Guide” to serve as a guideline for schools in the countries involved. For integrating Climate Change in education the partners agreed on the division of work, defining two subjects of the school curriculum for each country:
Physical Education/Geography for Italy,
History/ Literature for Greece,
Maths/ Physics for Turkey,
English/ Music and Arts for Latvia
Biology/ Chemistry for Poland.
Each country is producing 10 lessons for each indicated discipline with their final tests in their mother tongue and then translating it into English. This guidebook takes into account new approaches in teaching such as augmented reality and new technologies to teach children about the changing climate in the different subjects. It is a good starting point for diverse environmental education across subjects that encourages learning through exploring.
Individual contracts were concluded with local experts or teachers (equal to 60 working days) for the achievement of the Project Results.
