INVATA CREATIV IN CONTEXT EUROPEAN
Date du début: 15 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 15 sept. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

The project entitled ’’Learn Creatively in a European Context’’ is generated by the undergoing SWOT analysis of the Science Language Teachers’ Meeting taking place within the ‘Ion Luca Caragiale’ College, which revealed three weaknesses, as follows: firstly, the threat of having to liquidate the English/French Bilingual classes; secondly, the competition that exists between schools; last but not least, the crumbling of the teaching deontology that is brought about by the fluctuating values encompassed by the diminishing of the number of students and by the social pressures. Hence, the project aims to encourage innovative approaches, cohesion between teachers and students, and the due diligence of preventing student drop out and teacher/student unaccountability, by means of accessing ICT technology stimuli within The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. Moreover, the project’s goal is on the one hand, to encourage the team to use the communicative and cognitive resources in spite of all the bureaucratic and legislative tensions taking place at the moment and, on the other hand, to support the involved parties into having the necessary pleasure of learning through Erasmus Plus. Undoubtedly, there will be linguistic and intercultural benefits for the eight Romanian teachers currently teaching at elementary and high school level who will receive the scholarship at ‘Collège International de Cannes’ from France. Their selection consists of four different subjects/workshops: 1. It is said that; 2. The fairy tale in oral examination; 3. Analysing literary masterpieces; 4. Intercultural Issues. The Romanian trainees will use the fairy tale techniques as tool for oral and written expression in integrating cultural topics in order to revise their ‘in vivo’ experience, irrespectively of the native tongue used. A series of teaching aids (poems, photography, video document, theatrical expression) and artistic and cultural assets (songs, painting, music, and literature) are being tested in this project, fact which enables the accumulation of more methodological methods in FLE. The later mentioned ideas associate directly culture and arts in pedagogy and, hence, offer security, motivation and dynamism in the teaching-learning process. The CEFR content and performance language descriptors will serve as viable reference assets. The apprenticeship is focused on a set of practical assignments that are to be accomplished either individually or in a team, in order to demonstrate to what extend are arts designed to allow the usage of language, by means of associating multiple skills in the teaching-learning process. The cultural and artistic contemporaneousness will influence the schedule of the activities. The lexical, grammatical and phonetic properties of language itself will represent a priority, as well as associating logically complementary leaning skills. The CEFR content and performance language descriptors will serve as viable reference assets. The last workshop is aimed at establishing an inventory of skills, abilities and cultural assets gained through the course, but also at deciding the means of adapting these in the Romanian context. The trainees will be encouraged to stay in touch with each other and with their trainer in order to facilitate further sharing of teaching methods and principles. Another group of eight Romanian teachers will apply for the course taking place in Great Britain, at Richard Language College in Bournemouth on British Culture and Civilization. Their aim is to have a better understanding of the ethnicity and multiculturalism facets that exist in the British educational system. Gaining experience signifies: planning and applying activities; involvement in the students’ assessing process; students’ monitoring; attending extracurricular activities with students and teachers; establishing ways of approaching subjects in an interdisciplinary and multicultural context. As a result, the teachers will create an optional course when they return at home, entitled Identity/Otherness, where they will share their acquisitions and teachings aids gained in the apprenticeship, that made them embrace the pleasure of learning. The target of this course will be: the linguistic and science teachers, but also the students and the parents interested in gaining insight on the apprenticeship. An outcome would be that fact that ‘Ion Luca Caragiale’ College will embrace a new pan-European image thanks to the Erasmus Plus initiative and more and more teachers from Prahova county and Romania will be interested in applying for this type of course.
