New innovative educational methods are among the priority targets of Europe in order to provide to students more methods and more opportunities to their self-development. Early school living is a problem which we can solve involving students in activities that will motivate them, can contribute to a good development, discovering creativity and work with creative and critical educational methods. In the Europe Strategy 2020, it has been planned to reduce the dropout rate to 10% from the current 15%. We aim to contribute to the achievement of this target and also to offer an appropriate frame/learning environment in which children can achieve the skills needed in order to become accomplished adults personally and professionally. We want to teach students to think and open their minds, and nurture unconventional talents and skills. Creative, critical thinking pervades all aspects of our daily life-planning at home and planning at work, as well as navigating leisure time and on the job - creative thinking is central to each person's daily life and is an essential life skill. Children should be prepared for life with strong skills and competencies to ensure their personal development. They must be taught, supported to discover themselves and creative thinking methods are good instruments in this regard. Children need to know what they want, they need to discover their strengths and qualities and try to develop them. This project will help them communicate better, share their experiences, shape their personality in the context of being part of an international community. Partnership and collaboration between the partner schools will be developed through the activities that are included in the teaching and extracurricular activities. Within this project we want to offer a range of activities that will involve as many students and community members as possible and also make these curricular and extracurricular activities attractive and educational to different age groups. The project will contribute to the self-development of our students using creative thinking. Outdoor education and sustainable development/. Students has to be aware about the importance of the nature and environment for their own benefit, for the world benefit. Our door education can motivate more and more pupils to become more responsible and to appreciate what we have. Methods and approaches that will be mainly used include work with ICT, presentations, research, analysis, critical thinking, creative thinking, and summary. All schools will be equally involved in the planning and the realization of the activities. Students will be encouraged to become active members of their community and school, to learn about life in the partner school's community, to research and present how education and culture is being used as a positive force in different places around Europe, all under the form of workshops, sessions, practical activities. Through this project our students will have engaged in core studies to master critical and creative thinking, verbal and written communication, computational confidence, a global awareness, and the ability to work collaboratively. They will have developed a critical thinking character, they will have gained interpersonal skills such as teamwork, resolving conflict, and being an advocate. The number of partners is 6. We have a partnership consisting of Ireland, Romania, Italy, Portugal, Greece and Turkey. During the project we will develop and we will organize short term join staff training events. Each partner school will be responsible for the organization in their institution of such an event. These activities will be the best occasion to share and exchange educational methods, culture, best practice examples. The project will have a great positive impact on the whole educational process, as it will teach learners how to learn creatively and become creators of their own future. The methods and strategies used will be based on the individual needs and abilities of the students. At the end of the project they will be used to question things and actions and to act creatively about ideas and issues across a range of disciplines. We expect our pupils to be happier, more active while learning and getting involved in the activities of the project. They will realize the diversity in languages and cultures. Teachers will profit from the project in many ways. New ideas, new methods of teaching, new experiences will widen all partners’ horizons. The main aim of European projects and partnerships is involving young people in their education and training. We want our students to develop pro – active attitudes in school life, but also in their social life, thus ensuring a continuously social progress.
