The 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.
