for your warm welcome, for the organisation of this conference

Page 3: Comenius Introduction Marleen

Aim of the project MobilID:

We address the important theme of intercultural learning of European children and their teachers: working and living together in 1 Europe: RESPECT, OPEN ATTITUDE.

We integrate European projects on environment, economy, citizenship education, and the teaching of handicapped children into our national curricula and annual lessons.

We combine traditional classroom learning

and mobile learning, using ict / mobile phones.

Page 4: Comenius Introduction Marleen

But how exactly do we do that?

• How do we integrate these new ict methods and collaborative projects into our daily lessons / curricula?

• How can we share contents, methods and tools and learn from each other and cross our own borders?

Page 5: Comenius Introduction Marleen

1. European Days in School Calendar

• Integrate European celebrations in all school calendars,which differ in time / space / possibilities

• Informing our management on these examples of European Days, results in new decisions for your management:

2. PUPILS SHARE + LEARN

• By allowing the pupils to communicate with other pupils in Europe through use of software / ict

• To share and to show others online what activities they do in their own school.

• For this teachers need to learn how to find, create, collect, and share online, communicative tasks and exchange good practices and

tools.
