Écoles' logie
▶Summary
The ecological transition is an imperative for us, at school as everywhere else. However, we felt it was essential not just to endure it, but to understand it, and to play an active role in it, bo...
▶Objectives
- Make our young students aware of the importance of the ecosystems that surround them, their fragility and the means that help them regenerate. - Enable students, citizens in the making, to respond to the challenges of ecological transition by promoting eco-responsible initiatives and behavior. - Help students discover the keys to sustainable consumption, and address cross-cutting issues such as waste management, production and transport methods, seasonality, etc. - Involve parents' associations to have an impact on family habits. In their development strategies, the administrative departments of the schools involved in this project give priority to training in sustainable development issues, as well as to the use of the digital tools needed for research and successful exchanges between partners. The 'Ecoles' logie' project has encouraged European cooperation and the development of creativity, multiple intelligences and innovative methods, so that everyone can feel involved and succeed, whatever their level or background.
▶Activities
Each partner prepared a training course involving local players who work with pupils. They were also able to appreciate and discuss ecological activities directly with pupils and other teachers in the schools. The training courses led to collaborative activities common to all the schools involved in the project. The training courses also helped to initiate or enrich activities specific to each school. Each training participant received a certificate of attendance. The activities are presented on the project website: http://www.ecoleslogie.com/ and in the E+PRP, since we didn't have any productions planned for the project, we exhibited the activities in this space.
▶Impact
Here's what all the schools came up with: - each school proposed a logo and we then held a vote. - Christmas 2020: exchange of Christmas cards to get to know each other. - Long live the wind' song: each school learns the song and films it to make a joint video to rally support for the project. -' Ce que je vois par ma fenêtre' (What I see out of my window): photo competition, with 5 photos selected from each school, to create a travelling exhibition that can be passed around on mobility. This makes it possible to compare our living environments and gives the project visibility in the schools at the time of the exhibition . - a collaborative video was used to assess the ecological awareness of students in each school. Interview on the environment. 4 common questions, each in their own language, with French subtitles. -Europe Day activities: tools shared on twinspace so that they could be accessed by project teachers. No common activities to suit the different ages of the schools. -November 2022: online training for 'my little planet' challenges and school participation. -Collaborative Advent calendar -Planting of vines brought back from Northern Macedonia. - Collaborative recipe 'book' in padlet format (videos), recipes using
