C.L.I.L. activities 2016-2017 – “OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT”

During the last school year, Classes 1^B and 1^C of junior High school of IC “R. Moro”, Taranto  – Italy,  developed a C.l.I.L. activity about: “Our carbon foot print”.

Following their previous knowledge about the water cycle and some ecological issues, they were guided by their teachers to carry out a general brainstorming concerning the environment and other related topics; they learned about  ecosystems: atmosphere, soil, water and living beings, they studied the carbon cycle and found out that carbon is present in the natural environment.

Step by step, they built up their  vocabulary, they worked in pairs and in small groups and had great time too. Learning by doing they created posters and slogans and it was really amusing for them;

They tested and graded their carbon footprint and understood how fast we consume resources and generate waste.

They debated about Global warming, pollution, recycling, the ozone layer and deforestation; they focused on What to do to reduce our carbon footprint and Why,  filled in charts with missing information and learnt how they can make a difference in the world to preserve our wonderful natural beauties.

They children used Google Classroom app to keep in touch with their teachers and their classmates and  share their activities with them.

Now they are aware that the environmental implications are in our everyday activities It would be a big mistake not doing anything  to  help our planet, they promised they won’t give up and they hope they can change our world, but above all they are very proud of learning all the above improving their English knowledge.

Describe the activity

The project was intended to expose the students to science and its research method throughout a task oriented and guided practice teaching approach. The on-site visits on the coast line, for inspection, detection and sample survey and collection, aimed to learn more about the oyster reproductive cycle (Ostrea Edulis).
Considering the local oyster farming cultural and historical roots, the oyster spat collection, the growing cycle, the organisms set aside, the morphometric evaluations and the environmental assessment were the main activities developed on the matter.

The Project – G.R.E.E.N. in EUROPE

Green Entrepreneurial Education Network   in Europe

CODICE    PROGETTO       016-1-IT02-KA219-024333

The project G.R.E.E.N.  in EUROPE -Green Entrepreneurial Education Network in Europe –
is based on two pillars: the professional training of teachers and innovation in the field of education with the introduction of entrepreneurial education from primary school through content that is part of the value and culture of the partner schools: environmental sustainability and active citizenship education. It also includes certifications for the skills acquired during the learning pathway both for teachers and for students.

The project is about exchanging the best practices to implement better Green Life Styles in fact it aims  to create a network of good practices to deal with those environmental issues  that are threatening our own local areas (air, water and soil pollution, garbage disposal, etc), but also with unhealthy behavior (eating junk food,  sedentariness, use of chemical cleaning products, etc.).

As a first step in the development of the project, the students should acquire knowledge and be inspired by green good practices, already  successfully implemented in each partner country. In the second year of the project activities, they should plan how “to  import”, to replicate, that “green” idea/solution in their own local area (“green” products, technologies, sustainable alternatives etc.). In the end, 6-11year old students should be able to plan a “green” advertising campaign and 12-15 year old students should be able to draw up a simple “green” Business Plan to be submitted to the local organizations and institutions to support  and “to sell” the chosen green idea.

The project and  the study visits as well will be focused on experiential, environmental, and entrepreneurial learning expanding  the students’ sense of global citizenship and environmental responsibility and fostering entrepreneurial, technological education.

The objectives of the project  are in step with  the common political priorities and transversal priorities established  by the E.C. in the field of education and training (ET 2020) whose essential purpose is supporting the improvement of education systems, mutual learning, exchange of good practices and  professional development  of teachers as well.

All the  educational activities  expected in our project  as:

  • providing training for teachers;
  • considering and appreciating  the best practices of our  partners’ countries in the field of sustainable lifestyles,
  • finding  a way to ensure the exchange of information on best practices in this field (using English, modern technologies);
  • visiting our partners’ countries with  surveys and on-site workshops;
  • mentoring young students to produce business ideas in order to “export” and / or “to import” the healthy /eco-friendly lifestyle which is efficacious and innovative in our partner’s country;
  • steering the  students, future citizens of Europe, towards thinking and planning  a Green Economy that can be on the basis of future production and consumption systems based on the sustainable use of resources and reduction of negative impacts on the environment, are widely in line not only  with  the Strategic Objectives set by the E.U. for 2020 but also  with the strategic priorities redefined in COM (2015) 408 final del 26/08/2015 for European cooperation in education and training: 
  • Strengthening the development of transversal skills and key competences, in line with the Reference Framework on Key Competences for lifelong learning, in particular digital, entrepreneurship and linguistic competences;
  • Promoting  awareness and education in the environmental field developing skills reflecting growing sectors, such as the green economy;
  • Acquiring  and mainstreaming innovative and active pedagogies such as inter-disciplinary teaching and collaborative methods, to enhance the development of relevant and high-level skills and competences;
  • Supporting continuing professional development of teachers  especially to deal with work based learning, digital competences and innovative pedagogies, including through EU tools such as eTwinning;
  • Supporting the mobility of students, teachers and the development of strategic partnerships and joint courses by increasing internationalisation of education.

Dissemination is a very important phase in  the project  focused on two main aspects of it:

  • knowledge and dissemination processes, habits or products belonging to the sphere of Green lifestyles;
  • education of the students from primary school to the culture of entrepreneurship and business. 

The outcomes of this transnational  cooperation will be widely disseminated among all the relevant stakeholders through events, fairs, exhibitions and all the  path and activities  will be published on  T.E.S. and Junior Achievement  sites  that collect all the good practices related to teaching entrepreneurial skills and shared with E-twinning community.
