Description of the initiative
The project will be a duration of two years addressing Primary School children of ages six to twelve. Through encouraging caring, protecting and recycling ‘No Other World- CPR (Care, Protect, and Recycle)’ intends to become a first aid for the world which is undergoing difficult time due to global warming. It mainly aims to develop the three key competences; 1) Mathematical competence and basic competences in science and technology 2) Sense of entrepreneurship, creativity and productivity 3) Learning to learn. The outcomes of the project will be: 1. Documentaries(prepared by students about caring, protecting and recycling) 2. Green Corner 3. Web Page 4. Flyers (information about the project, caring, protecting and recycling in the environment). 5. Charts and database (storing the information and results of water bills collected by Eco-Detectives). 6. Exhibition and final presentation 7. Newsletters 8.Recycle bins 9. Calendar with artwork designed by the children The project strives to achieve highly responsible, sensitive, caring, intellectual individuals who accept the importance of nature and strive to care, protect and recycle, in other words who are aware of the importance of a sustainable environment. These individuals will thereby overcome xenophobia and accept other cultures. They will be able to relate nature to their learning and practice as well as encourage CPR.The project results and outcomes will be disseminated through, the project website as well as the school website, school newsletters, and exhibitions. Thereby all the school teachers, parents, and other stakeholders will be aware and up to date about the project.

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
