We knew that it was a long and systematic process that needed time to be implemented in teaching, but we wanted to achieve the following: Improving teaching through the introduction of teaching outside the classroom in partner schools through acquiring the skills of project partners - Developing awareness of the need and importance of this type of teaching in both teachers and students and its advantages brings through the development of awareness about a healthy lifestyle, preservation, and protection of the environment, and the use of natural resources environment - Application of acquired knowledge and development of this type of teaching, not only within the school but also in the wider local community -Improving the language competencies of teachers in partner schools -Improving the digital skills of teachers in partner schools - Increasing the number of students in partner schools - Increasing student achievement in tests and final exams - Arranging the schoolyard and adjusting the conditions for teaching outside the classroom
We signed up for the project to exchange ideas, work methods, and approaches to teaching that would take place outside the classroom. Everything arose from the need to improve this type of teaching, due to the epidemiological situation in previous years. But not only because of the problem with Covid, which limited work in a closed space, but also because of the benefits that this type of teaching would have on the students. Contact with nature and teaching in a natural environment can contribute to the improvement of work results in many ways, and yes at the same time, it does not endanger the health of students and teachers. Staying and learning in a natural environment affects the improvement of physical abilities, mental health, social-emotional connections, motor function, and academic achievement. Finally, training outside the classroom is performed sporadically and unsystematically, we are of the opinion that through the exchange of good practices this teaching method, especially in the era of the KOVID19 pandemic, found a positive response among employees in both partner schools and in social communities to which they belong.
