TEACHERS’ TESTIMONIALS
HERE ARE A FEW IMPRESSIONS OF THE TEACHERS INVOLVED IN THIS
P0ROJECT
What Benefits I see from this projects?For the students: talking about themes of interest for their
age and develop sensitivity for suffering-suffering of the others. Also, working in teams for small projects they develop interpersonal skills
For the teachers: develop cooperation between them and abilities for partnership in the community.
For the school: a sense of being a part of the world that transcend the border of our school, our country and Europe, a responsible part for finding solution to the problems that affect global society.
We are glad to have a chance of being part of the communication network about .world problems: awareness about consequences of our behavior.
SILVIA TINICA,Head of Horea School, Cluj-Napoca, Romania
This project seemed to be very interesting from the very beginning for both for pupils and for teachers.
Our planet and the environment has suffered a lot of changes and destructions during the ages. Everybody heard about natural disasters, but we weren’t really interested in them. Working in this project is a good opportunity to learn more about them, to teach children how to avoid them or to try to protect the environment and the people as well, and to see what is really going on during an earthquake or a flood..
The children really enjoyed the courses about disasters and how to avoid them.
The group work on these subjects make them think about these problems and find out more and more information, and why not a solution in the future!
AGATHA SIRBU, copartner of the project, Horea School,Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
As the faculty of the program I was deeply implied in working with it. It was a challenge for me and I see it first as a personal gain, acquiring and developing my abilities in working within a partnership, enlarging my communicative skills as a team coordinator with students and my colleagues.
As far as the topic of the program, we have tackled Natural Disasters.
It is very important for us to become aware of the problems that are peeping on us at every step in our lives and to be prepared to handle them in the most appropriate and quickest way possible.
It’s a great opportunity for me, my students and my colleagues to work together and to enlarge our perspective from a personal egocentric point of view towards a panoramic worldwide more charitable one.. my problem should become our problems and we should never be alone while dealing with natural disasters that occur in our lives.
It’s great getting out of the stereotypes of the learning process, and combining interesting, important, valuable and useful together in one session.
