Goals of the Project :

New technologies are constantly changing the way we learn, work, live and function in a digital and knowledge-based society. Life is increasingly non-routine, problem-based and technology rich. That’s why education systems are moving away from solely content-led approaches, and focusing more on helping learners develop a range of competences and student-based learning systems to cope in the complex world.

"I hear and I forget. I see and I believe.
I do and I understand."

(Project Motto - Confucius.)

The biggest challenge any teacher faces is capturing the students’ attention, and putting across ideas in such a way that stays with them long after they have left the classroom. 

Therefore, the necessity of this project has its origins in the need of enhancing the motivation for students and teachers by learning 21st Century Key Competences and innovative teaching techniques which will be integrated into the curriculum and School Development Strategy Plan in order to create student-based learning system and decrease the school dropout rates which is a big problem throughout Europe and World.

The biggest challenge any teacher faces is capturing the students’ attention, and putting across ideas in such a way that stays with them long after they have left the classroom. 

For this to happen, classroom experience should be redefined and innovative ideas that make teaching methods more effective should be implemented.
