Comenius
Let’s make
school more enjoyable
The two-year project “Let’s make school more enjoyable” commenced in
September 2011 and is funded by the Lifelong Learning Program as a
Multilateral school Partnership COMENIUS. Through the use of new methods
which require an active participation of the students in the teaching
process, the project’s objective is to increase not only their motivation
for learning but also their interest in lifelong learning and reduce the
absenteeism as well.
The coordinator is Mr.Ildefonso Pregigueiro Sanchez from Instituto Espanol
Vicente Canada Blanch (London, England) and apart from our school, the
partner institutions are: Bartin Anadolu Ogretmen Lisesi (Bartin, Τurkey),
I.I.S.S. Paolo Frisi (Μilan, Italy) and “Τeleki Blanka” Gimnazium Budapest
(Budapest, Hungary).
In the first year of the project each participating country will identify
methods to improve the teaching and assessment process so that school
becomes more enjoyable. Moreover students and teachers will collaborate to
establish a common virtual library with the best activities. During the
second year of the project the partners will use their counterparts' best
methods for the same themes. The students and teachers will emphasize both
advantages and disadvantages of using the above mentioned techniques. Taking
into account that a good school is only the one in which both students and
teachers learn together, this project will help not only our students to
become well equipped and responsible European citizens, but also our
teachers to be well prepared for the new European educational requirements.
During the two-year project each school will organize science festivals,
exhibitions and at least a day when the students will be teachers.
Furthermore they will create a web site to host their library which could be
a global discussion forum. Teachers and students will also participate in
the transnational meetings of the partnership.
