APPROACHING EUROPE AND ITS JOB OPPORTUNITIES
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2017 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

We could summarize that our project seeks to promote an active role of the students in the research of information, to improve their personal, professional and social competences , and teachers will be the facilitators. The project we have developed, called "Approaching Europe and its Job Opportunities", lays the emphasis on the students' learning more about their own culture and labor situation, and those of our European countries. There are five partners in this project: four VET schools in four different European countries (Italy, France, Germany and Spain), whose students will play an active role in the exchange of information and creation of a FINAL GUIDE of good educational practices; and an Italian NGO with experience in European projects, which leads us in the preparation of the project, in the search for suitable partners and in the dissemination of the results. Through specific actions and commitments related to intellectual activities and, ultimately, learning through action (PBL - Project Based Learning Methodology), we aim to train students, strengthen and increase their different skills (personal, social and professional), such as cooperation among students and the community that surrounds them, leading them in conflict resolution and interpersonal sensitivity and awareness to issues such as respect for multiculturalism, a sense of being part of a huge entity that is called Europe, the need for learning languages, the possibility of getting a job abroad, etc. We understand that the interpersonal behavior of young people is essential and it plays an important role in the acquisition of social, cultural and economic reinforcement of the community. Young people who do not show appropriate social behaviors experience isolation, selfishness, rejection and, overall, less happiness and personal dissatisfaction. This project is approached from the illusion and the belief that European education systems in coordination with their communities can meet the new challenges of coexistence and responsible citizenship in the 21st century Europe. Some of the specific activities that we are going to implement with our project, both in the transnational meetings and when each partner is working in their own VET school, are the following: Find information about students’ participation in several social fields: sports, culture, entertainment, etc. Initial diagnosis of the commitments in the personal and social settings the students show: study time, time spent on homework, time spent with family, friends, etc. Gather the opinion of the companies on areas for improvement of FCT, monitoring and coordination. Contrast between partners’ information in the transnational meetings. Create of a common interschool network for finding employment opportunities. Design a Website (starting point for interschool coordination and communication, and final website to give life and continuity to the project and / or social networks that could be generated). Social network(s), which maintain and exchange activities that keep the spirit of the project or micro-project, as in the case of exchange of time, in order to have continuity in time. Information and cultural guide that spreads best educational practices in the whole experiment carried out in each country. Audiovisual edition of the experience presented in the Website. Search services and internationalized job bank, created and maintained by the network of participating centers (second year). Exchange experiences on previous technical and intellectual skills’ contests, organized to encourage and recognize innovation and entrepreneurship. Videoconferencing, a lecture where to contrast, debate and conclude on issues having to do with the application of learning for life: “Being competent is knowing how.” Visits to companies of the nearby environment, where students do their FCT periods (Job Training Companies). Organize visits to different places of interest in each community, according to the phase of the project: Town Hall, associations of companies, companies, youth associations, etc.). Creation of an information leaflet about the “Zona Media” (our part of the region), in our case, but each partner will create another about their own region. Design, develop and evaluate the agenda of each meeting by the students of each organizing partner. In any case, each activity will have a person responsible for its proper organization, and the committee in charge of development and monitoring will assess the project implementation. Consequently, the activities will follow the guidelines explained in detail in the activities section of the planning. Each host partner will try to integrate the visitors in their communities as much as possible so that all the partners have a relatively deep knowledge of each other’s surroundings.
