The MOVING HARZ project was the basis for strengthening European competences in vocational education and training in the goslar district. The creation of a consortium of the three vocational schools in the goslar district pooled existing competences and resources of the individual schools. Nevertheless, of the 47 planned mobility, only 32 mobilitys took place. These were carried out by both trainees and education staff. The reduced number is due to the redistribution of responsibilities, which led to a delayed start of mobility in the project. In addition to the consistently positive experiences of the project participants, the good and productive cooperation of the three schools must be highlighted above all. Synergies have been created, which will also be further exploited and expanded in a follow-up Project.

"Our project ""Our landscape. Our home. Our school"" is based on exchanging ideas and methodology of outdoor teaching. For some years our school teachers have organized different outdoor activities as a part of formal and informal educational process. These efforts to use outdoor learning methods haven't been constant and haven't been summarized and the system of using these activities and methods in curricular and extracurricular activities has not been created yet. This project could help to summarize and create methodological descriptions and recommendations how, where and when to use outdoor teaching methods for different European schools. Project partners would organize workshops, meetings, seminars, try to use outdoor methods in educational process. The aim of the project is to integrate outdoor education and learning to education system as well as to share experiences in the European perspective.

The name of the project: The Celtic culture in Bohemia and Galicia: similarities and differencesThe project was focused on the age group of the pupils from 16 to 18 years. The project was attended by the 10 disciples of our and 10 pupils of the partner´s school. Both groups were selected on the basis of their interests and abilities usable in the context of the project: the pupils interested in IT technology, with a specific interest in History, and the Celts especially, in the languages, the Geography, the creative pupils and pupils with their own vision of any possible realization of our proyect. There are the main objetives we wanted to reach: - the maximum improvement of the linguistic competences of young people, their oral and written speech, adquisition of a healthy self-confidence when communicating in a foreign language- on the basis of this communication there was the effort of mutual exchange of information relating to the settlements of the Celts on our own and the Spanish territory with a focus on the region where the schools are located (own elaboration of maps with the settlements and their publication in the final brochure). - we prefered our pupils to obtain a cultural and historical awareness of our ancestors by monitoring similar characters and differences between the Czech and the Spanish Celts and by evaluating which of the Celtic aspects we maintain even at the present time. This project was conducted across several subjects: Czech, Spanish and English languages, History, Geography, as well as in the subject of the Information Technology, and in the Czech school even Tourism. The project students were working or individualy, in pairs or in mixed groups togeather with their foreign mate to ensure the maximum contact among them and the best improvement of language and communication skills.During the project implementation there were two mobilities between the school institutions: the first one in autumn 2017 and the second one in spring 2018. During the mobilities pupils had the major possibility to exchange the information obtained from their local investigations. They even finished some of their tasks they had been working on remotely. According to the previously prepared itineraries we carried out different visits of places connected with the occurrence of the Celtic people in the corresponding regions. We even carried out the presentations of our institutions, of our results and finally made the evaluations.The main part of our communication was operated by Skype, Facebook, WhatsApp and eTwinning where the pupils and coordinators shared all the material, photos, videos, etc. Our project had been registered previously on eTwinning platform before its official opening. All our conclusions and the procedure of our work we shared with the wide public in form of articles in local magazines and on the webpages of our schools. Finally we created the unique product of our project - the publication - providing revision of our whole work and especially the compacted information about the similarities and differences between the Celtic culture in Bohemia and Galicia which was the main aim of our project. Thanks to this publication we managed the dissemination of the project results at local/regional/national and even EU level distributing it on different webpages and to the centres of Celtic culture (museums). This project was focused mainly on an independent work of pupils, of their own invention, ideas. The role of teachers was as a coordinator of their work and evaluator. Therefore, the main objective of this project completed the development of the individual capabilities, their development within the group, educating the pupils to team work, mutual respect and self-evaluation and the evaluation of the work of others. On the basis of this project we expected the deepening of cooperation with the school in Galicia. Thanks to all of this we think that we have reached all of the objetives. It was unforgettable, upgrading and very strong experience for all of us.
