Follow Up
We were fortunate, that despite covid having a huge affect on our planning, that we were able to still deliver the different aspects of the project, whether that be in person or virtually over google classroom.
There was a lot of communication required to get the activities and mobilities to take place, but sheer perseverance from both schools allowed this to happen successfully.
We set out with a number of aims and objectives (as can be seen on the tabs above) and believe that we have managed to achieve them all for our students.
Our students were given the opportunity to experience culture in both countries, take part in collaborative learning (both in person and online), improve their Scientific and Mathematical knowledge and involve others from the schools involved to improve their life chances in the future
Priorities:
YOUTH: Promoting engaging, connecting and empowering young people
The exchanges and the feedback from the students, as can be seen on this website, has allowed us to view this as a success.
VET: Supporting the uptake of innovative approaches and digital technologies for teaching and learning.
The pandemic pushed this even further as important so involved online lessons from the UK to Italy, including Maths, an actual cooking lesson and English.
Creativity and culture
Students from both countries were given the opportunity and enjoyed the different culture of each country by staying with host families and taking part in many local cultural visits and experiences
ICT - new technologies - digital competences
The use of Google classroom in particular allowed our students to access new things such as online collaboration and learning. We also undertook programming activities whilst in Italy on Mobility 1.
Teaching and learning of foreign language
Both students enjoyed learning each other's languages through a number of different lessons.
We assessed these outcomes based on a mixture of concrete results that were gained during experiments and student and staff feedback. Much of this can be found on the website we created to share information and results.
