Project summary

To promote the "2018/2019 Year of Chemistry from School to University", a PEAC (Cultural Action Educational Project): "Chemistry and Natural and Architectural Heritage to develop eco-citizenship" is presented in pedagogical council and voted on the board of the LP DE L'HORIZON from the first trimester of the 2018 school year. This PEAC conducted with classes CAP Sale and classes of Bac Pro Architecture and Intervention on Built Heritage, coordinated by a professor of Math./Sciences, takes place over the school year. The registration of this PEAC on the e-twinning Platform since September 2018, is an opportunity for students to report on their actions by interacting with European partners on the valuation and preservation of Natural and Architectural Heritage. Virtual exchange students often in a situation of inclusion, expressed the will to create a real exchange of practices to show the projects carried out in the schools of each of the European partners. The teachers involved in the e-Twinning exchange decide to concretize by the candidacy for a school exchange KA229 2019 session whose coordinator is the LP DE L'HORIZON. European funding will provide students with country-specific heritage and geographical discoveries: mobility a lever against exclusion. This theme is the guiding principle to prevent school dropout by allowing students to create a "lived" by becoming actors in their skills. This partnership KA229 is realized with 4 high schools of secondary and professional education. The Valorization of European Natural and Architectural Heritage to develop eco-citizenship is the strategy used to develop basic skills (for students in inclusion) and also cross-curricular skills and European citizenship ie knowledge to be. As a result, it is necessary to prevent school dropout. The main objectives of the partnership are: - To exchange, pool on pedagogical and didactic approaches to help the student to be confident, to communicate with European counterparts of all horizons, to be aware of the riches of his country to be able to value them, to develop his skills basic reading and writing and maths for students most in difficulty, to overcome the geographical and psychological difficulties to achieve mobility, so prepare for professional integration that often requires being mobile, to discover trades. -to help students develop their transversal skills and create a "lived" that will make them actors of their knowledge, know-how and skills to become true eco-citizens and ambassadors of life in their country / city /school . The educational and didactic method is to use the professional skills acquired during the KA101 training in Granada in July 2019: - develop creativity and innovation to ensure the effectiveness of the knowledge triangle: education-research-innovation; - to explore innovative methods for intercultural dialogue and participation with a transversal approach. Several activities are implemented within the various European institutions to allow the realization of the objectives of the project and according to innovating modalities: - collaborative work: creation of padlets, communications by email, on the eTwinning platform; - co-teaching sessions between vocational and general education so that students are aware of the project as a whole; - In-house collaborations with communities, associations, businesses, artisans. - educational outings related to the project: visits to cultural sites, museums, businesses, artisans - stays in a reading and writing center to develop the basic skills of students in inclusion - the use of ICT Students work in a dual perspective and on the principle of the inverted class: - to carry out activities in connection with natural and built heritage and eco-citizen gestures in their own country; - to carry out investigations to discover the countries of the other partners while ensuring this discovery by communications on the TwinSpace Through these virtual and real school exchanges, transversal skills and key competences are implemented. The concrete result will be the Production of a Mobility Passport which will identify the techniques of appropriation of mobilities, an analysis of the eco-citizen activities carried out at each of the Partners visited to promote and preserve the Natural and Architectural Heritage. This Mobility Passport will be in the form of a Project Manager resulting from the pooling of acquired skills.

Final report summary

The application for the KA229 school exchange partnership project has been accepted by the Erasmus+ Agency and the 2019-1- FRO1-KA229-063023 project was scheduled to run from 01 September 2019 to 31 August 2021. This partnership aims, as indicated in the application file, to prevent early school leaving by promoting European Heritage and eco-citizen gestures. This KA229 partnership is carried out as agreed with 4 secondary and vocational high schools. The Valorization of European Natural and Architectural Heritage to develop eco-citizenship is the strategy used to develop basic skills (among students in inclusion) and also transversal skills and European citizenship, i.e. the know-how to be. Therefore, it is a question of preventing school dropout. The project started in September 2019 and in November 2019 the HORIZON Vocational High School welcomed European partners to report and exchange on activities carried out within the framework of this partnership. This first exchange was prepared in advance by virtual communications. During this first exchange the European counterparts participated in the Science Festival 2019 which valued more than 50 student animators and more than 800 students participated:http://lycee-horizon.ac-reunion.fr/2019/12/17/fete-de-la-science-le-12-14-et-15-novembre-2019/ The arrival of COVID-19 has disrupted the various partners and schools have suspended real exchanges and slowed down virtual communications. By mutual agreement the various partners agreed to continue the project with a year of postponement and therefore changes in mobility dates and the implementation of hybrid exchanges to continue preparing the remaining mobilities. It should be noted that this rebound was made possible thanks to the ERASMUS+ agency, which has set up facilities. Numerous videoconferences under the guidance of the coordinating high school were necessary to decide on the dates and objectives of the remaining mobilities. This is how the Bareiro High School hosted in March 2022, the ASSISI High School in May 2022 and the Slatina High School in June 2022.

European funding has enabled students to discover the heritage and geography specific to each country: mobility a lever against exclusion. This theme is the common thread to prevent school dropout by allowing students to create a "Lived Experience" by becoming actors of their skills. Through these mobilities and exchanges, the main objectives of the partnership are achieved: - exchange, pool on pedagogical and didactic approaches to help the student to be confident, to communicate with European counterparts from all horizons, to become aware of the riches of his country to be able to value them, to develop his basic skills in reading and writing and calculation for the most disadvantaged students, to overcome geographical and psychological difficulties to achieve mobility, therefore to prepare for professional integration which often requires to be mobile, to discover professions. - help students to develop their transversal skills and to create a "Lived Experience" that will make them actors of their knowledge, know-how and interpersonal skills to become real eco-citizens and Ambassadors of Life in their country / city / school. The pedagogical and didactic method: - developing creativity and innovation to ensure the effectiveness of the knowledge triangle: education-research-innovation; Several activities are implemented within the various European institutions to achieve the objectives of the project and in innovative ways: - co-teaching sessions between vocational and general education - internal collaborations with local authorities, associations, companies and craftsmen. - educational outings related to the project: visits to cultural sites, museums, companies, craftsmen These are transversal competences and key competences that are implemented. The concrete result is the production of a Mobility Passport which lists an analysis of eco-citizen activities to enhance and preserve Natural and Architectural Heritage. This Mobility Passport is in the form of a Masterpiece.
