Wind of change: The project deals with the construction of a well lighted bicycle stand. The light is generated by a wind turbine. None of the involved schools owns a lighted and roofed bicycle stand. With this project the students demonstrate that energy solutions with renewable energy can be simple and plain. The participants of the project are students who do their A levels within the next three years. The students attend the Berufskolleg in Geldern and the Stredni prumyslova skola stavebni akademika Stanoslava Bechyne in Havlickuv Brod. The students are 16-21 years old. The project has different aims. The first one is that the students realise how importent renewable energy is. They learn about the advantages of renewables and their local benefit. Moreover the students realise that solutions can be very simple. The participants learn how to handle new forms of technology and how to be creative and productive with these technologies (3D printer). The second aim is to show the students that cooperations with people from other countries is enriching. They learn to value knowledge of others and understand this cooperation as a chance for their life. The third aim demands the students' responsibility. They take over responsibility for the project and their fellow students. They organise the project themselves (with the help of the teachers). The students take part in a project course which is certified by the schools. The project course does not only take place at school but also at different places like Universities, a science park and at a wind power park. The bicycle stand can also be used when the project is done. In the future the bicycle stand should be used by students and recreational athletes who use the schools' gyms in the evening or at the weekend.

The students attended the Berufskolleg in Geldern and the Stredni prumyslova skola stavebni akademika Stanoslava Bechyne in Havlickuv Brod. The students were 16-21 years old. We planned 4 visits, 2 visit to each school. Unfortunaltey, we had to cancel the last visit to tschechia because of corona. The results werde presented through Microsoft Teams. The project had different aims. The first one was that the students realise how importent renewable energy is. They learned about the advantages of renewables and their local benefit. Moreover the students realised that solutions can be very simple. We visited a wind power so they realized the function of wind with producing energy. In addition to that the participants learnd new digital posibilities, like 3D-Printer. The second aim was to show the students that cooperations with people from other countries is enriching. They planned afternoon activities with each other so they got to know their culture. They learned to value knowledge of others and understood this cooperation as a chance for their life. The third aim demanded the students' responsibility. They took over responsibility for the project and their fellow students. They organised the project themselves (with the help of the teachers). The students took part in a project course which is certified by the schools. The project course did not only take place at school but also at different places like Universities, a science park and at a wind power park. As results we have a bike stand at each location.
