2013-2015: "Mare Nostrum", financed by COMENIUS Multilateral school partnerships

The project is a partnership between European Schools located in coastal cities from the following countries: Greece, Italy, Bulgaria, Portugal, France and Romania. The goals is to carry out a MULTIDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC LABORATORY ON COASTAL ECOSYSTEM. The basic idea is that school  must tend to the gradual transformation of the traditional learning into a "learning environment" that is to say a physical space of research: classroom, museum, science lab, natural environment but also mental space in which the search will replace the transmission, awaking in students the construction of meaning. We have chosen the sea as basic scope because it is closely linked to the concept of Europe in geographical, political, cultural and symbolic way. The sea, from which all forms of life have birth, is in itself a huge laboratory and a learning environment.
Pupils will study coastal ecosystem across Europe and they will compare their results by:
taking photos, organizing photo exibitions and Power Point presentations, making a film on the coastal health, monitoring the water, put their results in a dedicated multilingual website, improuving their fluency in foreign language, using TIC , learning by doing, making new friends. The work being flexible, pupils with special educational needs will have their part in it. All partners  will work in a collaborative way throughout the project, comparing their different methodologies, implementing and evaluating activities.
