Objectives

Through the implementation of the project, we wanted to strengthen the sense of value of students' underestimated talents in education. Students could develop their strengths, interests and gain life skills. Thanks to this, students who do not achieve high results at school had a chance to raise their self-esteem and develop themselves. We focused on cooperation and inclusion, using our hobby for this purpose. The weaker students rebuilt their self-confidence, presenting their talents in international cooperation. Another need was to strengthen language competences, we showed students that multilingualism is the future. We worked to eliminate disproportions in the knowledge of English between students and teaching staff, which is a must to run international projects. Participation in the project provided students of our school with the opportunity to improve their digital competences, including: acquiring new knowledge and skills in the field of creating professional and effective information and promotional content and using it in professional practice. We paid special attention to the rules of online security. An important element for us was to raise students' motivation to learn, develop their innovation and creativity.
