N.I.C.E – Nature in Cooperative Education

SPLOŠNO O PROJEKTU:

V projekt so ob slovenskem partnerju (RA Sotla) vključeni še partnerji iz Italije, Malte in Velike Britanije. Projekt se je začel konec leta 2014 in se bo izvajal 3 leta. Odobren je v programu Erasmus plus, akcija ključni ukrep 2, Več-sektorska strateška partnerstva.

Cilj mednarodnega projekta NICE je spodbujanje zavedanja o tem, kako pomemben je odnos človek-narava-dobro počutje. Glavna ciljna skupina projekta bo osnovnošolska mladina in učitelji. V projekt bomo tako aktivno vključili učitelje in učence – učitelji bodo usposobljeni v mentorje (s pomočjo v projektu razvitih modulov usposabljanja), učenci pa bodo pridobili in spoznali nova znanja s področja varovanja narave in pomena naravnih zakonitosti. Partnerji bomo v projektu vzpostavili mednarodno bazo primerov dobrih praks, s področja prenosa znanj izobraževanja o pomenu naravnega okolja na osnovnošolsko mladino, hkrati pa bo tudi priložnost za mednarodna srečanja partnerjev, ki bodo na svojih srečanjih izmenjevali znanja, ideje, razvajali skupna orodja za nadgradnjo projekta (oblikovanje elektronsko dostopnih učnih modulov za učitelje v vseh 4 vključenih državah) in podobno.
