Objectives

- Increasing the teaching capacity in partner schools by applying time-tested practices. This was reported through the seminars held, the open lessons taught and the methods shared with colleagues. - Increasing the motivation of students through the use of digital devices and lessons in class. This was accounted for by tracking school marks, which increase after participating in mobility and Erasmus + projects. - Raising the image of schools in society by involving them in projects Erasmus +. There was an increase in the number of students wishing to be part of such schools. - Increasing students' self-esteem and confidence in their abilities. Not only the success of the participants, but also the success of the classmates increased very quickly. The following cannot be measured realistically, but is extremely important for the psycho-climate in schools: - Improving the mental and emotional state of teachers and students by sharing ways to deal with anxiety, insecurity, lack of motivation, etc. during the pandemic and not usual conditions.

Background

In the modern society, when the world closed and everyone is staring at the screen, one of the first to adjust to work in the new reality are students and their teachers. The existence of all kinds of electronic gadgets, used so far as a mean of communication, entertainment and sharing interesting things, has become a tool for learning. Platforms, applications and websites have become a powerful educational instrument in the hands of teachers. In a very short time we had to become IT professionals who learned from each other. That is why sharing all this knowledge is essential today. Its application in the classroom, when we all return to the new normal, is inevitable and instead of denying, we must accept and use it all to the fullest. And the best way to learn is by doing something ourselves. The application of good practices from foreign schools, the use of already passed assignments and assessment cards will not only facilitate, but also make education more fun because there is no secret that students are tired of standing in front of screens. Using the most essential, the most motivating from distance learning will return their attention to the lessons.
