INTERNATIONAL NOTE IC18 / IMPACTS AND INDICATORS: FINAL REPORT TO WRITE FOR THE eVe+ TEAM

 

Note de COORDINATION INTERNATIONALE n°18 – IC18 note / Le 02/07/23

Le cinquième élément : connaître les Forces de la Nature et produire une énergie durable 2020-2023

---

Hello my dear friends.

First I am praying you to accept the expression of all my gratitude for your help in the implementation of this partnership, that the Pandemic and other sad events made more complicated to implement than we first did hope. « Super Beetle » is now requested in order to write our final report and permit us to obtain as sooon as possible the total amount of the grants promised by the EU (let's cross fingers).

I think the French Erasmus+ Agency shall let us three months to complete the report and agents can wait for three months more before to pay the schools. But our common interest is to do it as quick as possible so I am begging your pardon by now, in the case I should be boring once again and send to you some questionaires during this summer so before you'll go back to school (?)

Anyway, if you have both drawings or graphic novels in your local stocks, please share its in order to enrich the collection published on our public website names Quintessence. I hope to see you again very soon, in some genial future cooperations (both the projects ACMÉ and Be.Bo.P are KA2 partnershipswich may concern you,and we'll keep in touch by eTwinning in the worst case. ILARGIA LEAGUE was also done to overcome some white periods in our relationships !).

You know how the intersectoral approach promoted by the EU and its demand for a break down of the collaborative works (fragmented in packages) in the same time an opening to different entities (not schools) was also claimed seemed me very pertubating. But we may be also optimistic and, for example, I consider the new opportunities created by the changing framework of KA2 goals will perhaps permit to do not so short meetings then the 3 days long seminars like R4 we just finished to implement, in wich it's really difficult to talk with everybody and to have enough of collective chilling moments.

IMPACTS AND INDICATORS

As we have seen during WORKSHOP 3, we must explain in the final report how we are doing now to check if these impacts are or not realized ; then to describe the reasons why we changed some of the goals and/or we were not able to target the goals. It is also a good point if we can show the Quality Control was made gradually and we were reactive and flexible in order to stay relient.You can find in NBE+ the list of all the objective and subjective indicators we planned to use before the implementation of energyplusQUINTESSENCE erasmus+ partnership (available on this page http://nbeplus.franceserv.eu/EVEprefig2.html); it can be interesting to compare with the analysis made on june 24 by people taking part in R4 meeting.

-the most EXPECTED IMPACTS were, at the beginnings :
1. Progress in academic performance and “well-being” for learners
2. Disciplinary decompartmentalization and better teamwork by teachers and learners
(re-legitimizing the assessment process, if necessary)
3. Debates on artistic expression or civics issues
4. Incentive for the material upgrading of the establishment
5. Reinforced integration into the network of local establishments
6. Better understanding of Sustainable Development through the prism of the unity of matter and living things
7. Sustainability of international and European openness by maintaining established personal relationships over time, implementing other projects and / or individual mobility beyond the partnership

-the results of the completion of questionaires made the 24^th: all the impacts seems to be felt thanks to the following indicators :

1. students school performance and motivation in getting better results in exams and contests / Upgraded intercultural comunication skills, foreign language, digital and soft skills. Students updated and complimented their natural sciences knowledge / better school performance and motivation

2. They made new friends, and adapted a possitive attitude towards enviremental issues / Higher tolerance, new friendships (networking) / Better teamwork, social skills

3. Sense of empathy, responsibility and cooperation / Students are able to use different methods to create artistic works (AI, drawing, canva.com etc) / Artistic output through values of empathy and responsibility

4. Changes integration in the school curriculum / School upgraded and included some new learning methods and approaches / Integration in the school curriculum

5. Support from local authorities / Cooperation with the local NGO and schools / Support and collaboration with local authoration

6. Students became more aware of the pollutions and global warming / Students got better understanding and wider perspective of the proceses of Sustainable Development / Increased awareness as to global warming, climate change / Personal relationships and continuation of upcoming projects

7. The continuation of the projects and relationships / New friendships with future plans for further cooperation / impeccable experience

and...

STRONGEST IMPACTS ACCORDING TO THE PROJECT HOLDERS:

Students developed social, linguistic and I.T.C skills / Awkward communication / People made a bridge across the « credibility gap » appeared beween school and learners as a consequence of the COVID

ABOUT THE MEETINGS MADE REMOTELY IN THE FUTURE KA2 PARTNERSHIPS : A big challenge for everybody, with some particular risks ; « Sometimes some technical inconveniences ( voice quality ) / remote meetings are less productive with lack of personal interaction » but « it could be solution in crisis times »

MAKING OFF A BRIDGE BETWEEN SCIENCES, HULANITIES AND ARTS TO APPLY THE Noah METHOD'S GOALS : aim was targeted for 100% of answering people ; « It is for sure because of the harmonization of values between cultures and partners / Yes, it was a unique experience!

SATISFACTION OF PUPILS AND TEACHERS : Great! (bad weather's effects on several ground activities is a challenge notified only by the Latvian team). Financial problems due to inflation are mainly : the increasing prices of accomodation and transportation.
