Our project called "Traditions That Shape Culture" has the main objective to exchange good practices.

The idea of this project came up as a response to the need of our students to rediscover the cultural heritage in our areas and in different countries so that they know their roots and can understand where they come from, valuing also other countries and developing their European awareness and citizenship. Modern learning could be a great option to increase the interest of young people to study. New apps in learning, digital materials and the experience of having direct contact with other cultures and countries will increase the interest of young people to study, discovering European cultural heritage and the need to protect it.

As part of this project, will be 4 schools participating: 

Poland: - Turkey: - Italy - France 

Disadvantaged students are present in all participating schools. For that reason, many students don´t really have the possibility to travel to another country. We intend to offer them the opportunity to become more aware of what being a European citizen is as going abroad would be a new experience for them. Everyone will prepare the presentations or activities related to the topic to be presented during the meetings during the learning teaching training activities in each country, the organisation of the formative activities, the workshops, the exhibitions and the cultural visits in their own country. Each school has to upload online on eTwinning all the information needed: their part regarding the dissemination of the project, any extra information and their activities plan; to publish articles in the local newspapers. Carrying out this project will imply a lot of achievements and results. Some of them will be tangible,direct products of the activities such us the photo exhibition, the website, documentaries...

For students: the Increase in motivation, Improvement of communication, social skills, team work, foreign language skills, development of digital competence.

For schools and teachers: Synergies between schools and local and foreign institutions, Making, teaching more attractive working on a project oriented learning and using ICT, Improvement of their knowledge about cultural heritage.

Our schools have been taking part in different programs and projects during the last years and the advantages have been immeasurable. Taking part in this type of European projects has become a necessity and a demand from the part of our students. Cultural heritage shapes our identities and everyday lives and it is all around Europe. In its towns, cities, nature and archaeological sites, but also in art, objects, crafts from our ancestors, music, food and so on.
