The House of Culture of the Trade Unions “Lucian Grigorescu” in Medgidia hosted today the Multiplication Event – Interactive Application on Mobile Phone, within the Erasmus+ project no. 2021-1-RO01-KA220-SCH-000030265, with the title “Innovative Teaching/Learning Approaches”, financed with the support of the European Commission. Over a hundred students and teachers were present, as well as guests from Italy and Turkey.

For two years (2021-2023), within the project, numerous activities were carried out aimed at developing the creative, entrepreneurial and collaborative skills of the participants with the help of foreign languages, digital knowledge and notions acquired in school. Students thus become aware of the need to use computer applications and knowledge from the scientific subjects studied at school (mathematics, sciences, new technologies). Through project activities, students are encouraged to engage in experiential learning, problem solving and team work.

The Technological High School “Dragomir Hurmuzescu” Medgidia, the project coordinator, is an educational institution recognized locally as a successful organization, which meets the requests of parents and students of the city of Medgidia, but also from the neighboring rural areas.

Partner organizations and schools:

  • Zespol Szkol Technicznych i Ogolnoksztalcacych z Oddzialami Integracyjnymi im. Stanislawa Staszica, high school in Bialystok-Poland
  • Ozel Adalya Anadolu Lisesi, college in Antalya – Turkey
  • Özel Antalya Vizyon Koleji Anadolu Lisesi, college in Antalya – Turkey
  • ARDA Beratung & Bildung GmbH, Non-Governmental Organization-Berlin, Germany
  • Cofac Cooperativa De Formacao E Animacao Cultural Crl – University of Lisbon.

Among the results of the project is the creation of an IT application for mobile phones to be used in STEAM subjects. With the help of this application, students can more efficiently manage homework, upload projects, and teachers the lessons, explained the director of the “Dragomir Hurmuzescu” Medgidia Technological High School, Camelia Deșliu.

The students communicated in English, an important condition for successful integration into the European labor market. Another result of this project is the positive attitude that the students from disadvantaged backgrounds involved display towards their peers, teaching staff, the school in general, and last but not least, towards themselves and the social environment they come from.

Deputy director Georgeta Prică, project manager from “Dragomir Hurmuzescu” Technological High School Medgidia presented the stages and main activities carried out within the project: Lisbon – Portugal, between April 18-22, 2022, Berlin – Germany, between July 1-7 2022, Antalya – Turkey, between February 20-24, 2023 – Bialystok – Poland, between March 27-31, 2023.
