OUR GOAL

​​We aim to enhance basic skills using innovative methods in education-training, to offer the students the learning opportunities in high quality and to contribute to the digital integration in education-training. Also by means of our project “WET” (Web 2.0 Education Technologies), we target to enhance teaching profile and skill and to make the classroom performance be effective. And we aim our students to use technology in the manner of increasing their achievement. We believe that education-training isn’t only an obligation but it is also an amusing journey via web 2.0 tools’ being well-known, being taught and being practiced.
The students will improve their skills of maths, science and digital literacy and also coding via the innovative web 2.0 tools. They can solve their failure problems in the lessons and be motivated.
And also, we aim to enhance our teachers' competences about digital literacy in classes via using web 2.0 tools.
Nowadays, traditional methods have been still using in most of the schools and the approaches focused on “Logical and Verbal” intelligence have been practiced. However, everyone has different abilities of learning, solving problem and communicating as well as intelligence. We believe that we have to leave the traditional methods to educate the person whom the technology age needs, to produce the methods addressing to the intelligences of “Digital, Verbal, Visual, Music, Physical, Social, Internal and Natural” and use these new methods. While preparing our project, we purposed that we will be able to have access to every kind of intelligence such as Intelligences of “Verbal” that learn by listening, reading, writing and speaking, “Digital” that fancy drawing graph, schema and figure, “Visual” that convert the information into perceptible and visual presentation, “Physical” that learn better via active participations, “Social” that enjoy group works, “Music”, “Internal”, and “Natural”. We aim that they will search with pleasure by using innovative education technologies, improve themselves by sharing their studies and learning criticizing/being criticized, enhance their self-confidence via the success and feedback by feeling the sense of being liked.
Also, these days when information technologies cross borders we believe that our teachers, who educate the scientists, teachers, doctors and engineers of the future, should be qualified in EU standards, are able to use innovative approaches in education and also have to educate international qualified students. In order to make our teachers and students have information and equipment appropriate to EU criterion, we object to contribute to the adaptation of the education system of the community countries.
By means of our project our students will improve their skills of language and digital literacy, get the opportunity of practicing innovative technologies via web 2.0 tools and communicate face to face and on the Internet and also have cultural exchange. Our goal is to encourage the student groups who have different opportunities to use equal facilities in education by means of cooperation and sharing, to improve the teaching capacity and quality of teachers, to be able to administer the group works inside and outside the classroom and to transport the capability of using the new and innovative education technologies to the classrooms. Also, we plan to enhance the European Lifelong Learning in order to promote the cooperation in the field of policy and modernization of the schools.
What is Erasmus+ and how is it managed?
The European Union's Erasmus+ programme is a funding scheme to support activities in the fields of Education, Training, Youth and Sport.
The Programme is made up of three so-called "Key Actions" and two additional actions. They are managed partly at the national level by National Agencies and partly at the European level by the EACEA. The European Commission is responsible for Erasmus+ policies and oversees the overall programme implementation.
What does it support: Erasmus+ provides grants for activities in the fields of education, training, youth and sport. It offers opportunities for:
  • individuals to spend a mobility or volunteering period abroad and to receive linguistic training,
  • organisations to collaborate in project partnerships in the fields of academic and vocational training, schools, adult learning and European sport events.
Erasmus+ also supports teaching, research, networking and policy debate on EU topics.
