Project summary

Our project: "EFFECTIVE EDUCATION, BETTER FUTURE" is interdisciplinary and multi-faceted. It refers to foreign languages, new technologies and entrepreneurship. It gives our students the opportunity to use and broaden their knowledge and, above all, key competences that are essential in further education and the contemporary job market. During the project, participants learn effective learning strategies (especially foreign languages), develop self-presentation skills, learn to write such as the statements in the form of employee documents (CV, CV, business plan, advertisement). But they will also create a glossary of the most useful phrases in the languages ​​of their partners and improve their knowledge of English and Russian for business phrases. Undoubtedly, they will also learn how to deal with stress. In our project we would like to emphasise the importance of cooperation between project participants not only during design or organizational meetings, but also through social media or eTwinning platforms. Students will learn to collaborate in multinational groups. Other important social skills for young people in Europe, such as tolerance or equality between women and men, will be learned as well. We would also like to indicate the importance of pluralism. It allows to shape the skills of presentation, communication, and mobility (for example, on getting a job) of people living in the European Union. The main goals of the project are:   - effective and attractive teaching of foreign languages ​​(especially Russian and English) - increased use of new technologies to help teach and learn - promoting entrepreneurship attitudes In addition, we also hope to meet the following identified needs of our students: - increasing motivation to learn - effective use of new technologies to improve their language skills - increasing motivation to look for work (in the future, after graduation) - increase students’ self-confidence - higher professional and personal aspirations - developing intercultural competences based on acceptance, openness and tolerance - breaking stereotypes - learn the host country's history, culture and language - raising the level of self-assessment - improving the self-presentation - increased autonomy We hope that the actions we propose (broadly described in this proposal) will bring positive and long-term effects to students, teachers and schools participating in the project. They will affect not only them, but also (as a result of planned dissemination activities) to other groups of consumers (parents, teachers of other schools, officials involved in educational policy, local journalists). The implementation of this project means EFFECTIVE EDUCATION AND A BETTER FUTURE for all partners participating in it.
