Riassunto del progetto (max. 2000 caratteri): 
Starting from the students, teachers, parents and local community need to collaborate in solving an ecological problem and making the public opinion become sensitive towards it we initiated a partnership with three European schools (Colegio Heidelberg S.A. - Spain, Zespol Szkol Technicznych i Ogolnoksztalcacych nr 1-VIII Liceul Ogolnoksztalcace - Poland, Uddevalla gymnasieskola - Sweden). For this purpose we created and administrated a website encompassing the following: information about each of the partners, presentation of ecological problems identified in the areas surrounding the partners schools, photos taken durring thematic trips, meetings and tree-planting activities, an ecological polyglot (En-RO-Es-SW-PL) dictionary, the syllabus for an optional cross-curricular course initiated as a result of the partership. In the present, as a means of ensurring sustainability the project is implemented by the school's ecology club).

Che cosa possono imparare altri soggetti dal vostro progetto? (max. 1500 caratteri): 
Our project facilitates students and teachers progress by presenting a website containing materials for an optional course as well as materials for a cross - curricular course entitled Eco-nomy. The database containing scientific results is used by students and teachers during Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Geography classes as well as Photographic Art Optional classes. The parents and local community can access information on the website, can view problem and solution promotion posters, the online photo exhibition, developing in the way civic spirit. The linguistic and IT skills for students and teachers from the target group is improved by using the information uploaded on the website as well as by updating it by student and teachers.
