LISTEN - Community Learning for Social Inclusion
The project aims at developing a high quality early childhood education and care model promoting intergenerational solidarity and actively involving local communities. The consortium will co-design innovative learning environments using formal and non-formal methodologies to increase dialogue and cooperation among children, teachers, educators, families and a wider civil society.
Through our project we want to implement a mixed learning model to effectively integrate technology, to improve the teaching and learning experience for teachers in kindergartens and primary schools and pre-schools and primary school students.This will give the partners involved in the project the opportunity to provide a type of online learning that better meets the needs . The project will be implemented over a two-year period to give teachers in kindergartens and primary schools greater choice and flexibility in terms of what is taught and how students learn. This learning strategy will allow both teachers and students to engage in ways that would not normally be available or effective in a traditional face-to-face class style. We will frequently use the method known as a «Flipped classroom», pupils acquire preliminary knowledge at home or remotely (via books, online research, and so on) and teachers use in- school lesson time to facilitate the application of that in practice.
Art cultivates important skills that benefit a child’s development, expands a child’s ability to interact with the world around and provides a new set of skills for self-expression and communication.
