The pupils will discover the present situation by assessing
the water quality, inquiring about the local water treatment, questioning
families in the region about energy consumption, lifestyles, sustainable living.
The interpreted outcomes will be the starting point for virtual discussions and
real meetings. During this social learning process, pupils and teachers will use
an e-learning platform, and modern high tech tools, created by Free Your River.
Pupils will discover and compare each others situation, way of thinking, living,
language, culture and decide together on the ideal solution for each part of the
GREEN house. Unanimously, they will propose sustainable solutions: each partner
creating one virtual room of THE ideal house and show it in a video clip. They
will make a little dictionary with the essential words related to the video
clips; and a quiz to understand better each typical approach. Pupils will
experience European citizenship as a quality of attitudes, interactions of
individuals related to one big society. During the fair, big final event, pupils
will present all the outcomes. They will invite other youngsters, parents, and
local decision makers; the whole community.
One important action of the Home GREEN Home project is the
linking with Free Your River, a Minerva project which develops a learning
environment and IT-tools on how to become a river friendly community. Besides
the developing of an own unique project, all partners will do the testing of the
tools, the formulating of critical feedback and the reporting, since the Minerva
project doesn’t foresee any grant for this testing by us, partner schools.
