Works process
The activities were created based on our students' ideas and in order to support learning. Each activity had as a result a final common product and engaged all the participants: pupils, teachers, parents etc.
To achieve the project goals a variety of pedagogical methods will be used, taking student needs and interests into account, as well as the nature of each new theme/phase of the project. As we aim to increase student motivation and to promote critical thinking and understanding, we will use activities based on inquiry-based learning: independent research, group projects, guided research projects and group presentations.
