Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Our organization chose to cooperate with ITC for in service training, about leraning mobility of individuals. ITC has 18 years of experience in the field of education and the organization of courses. Is one of the official bodies established by the Czech Ministry of Education , Youth and Sport . We chose the training entitled " Encouraging creative learning " as it has been observed that the creativity of children is especially pronounced in small primary classes . As students are heading into the final classes of the school , their creativity is reduced . Our goal is to keep alive this creativity through our participation in this program . The objectives of the project to encourage creativity are:- Improving creative thinking ability of teachers and their students.- Develop tools and techniques for innovative problem solving. - Use of creative thinking in individuals often associated with rote learning . -Promotion of fantasy and enjoyment through creative thinking . Exchange experiences and intercultural practices in creativity and innovation . Our organization, in the context of in-service training of staff, in Erasmus +, will send a participant for five days in a European Union country, for in service training, providing by ITC . There, the participant will gain knowledge on new teaching methods and new teaching tools .The participant in the program, is an official public employee,with 6 years experience, graduated with honors from the Department of Education. Has good knowledge of English language( Lower ) and A -level certification in information technology and communications ( ICT ) .The training will be held in English and is divided into 11 training modules , each one focuses on a specific area related to creative thinking in education. Each section will include both the current theory of creativity in psychology and cognitive science , and its implementation by teachers through innovative teaching methods.The key learning outcomes of the participants of the project are:- Improving the level of basic skills and competencies .- Strengthening the professional profile of the learners , acquiring skills during the year.- Internationalization in educational contexts .- Encourage the exchange of best practices , ideas and materials among colleagues within the EU- Using innovative and learner-centered teaching approaches and development of appropriate methods of evaluation and certification , based on learning results .- Increased ability to address the needs of disadvantaged students .- Knowledge of transferable teaching techniques , eg multiple intelligences , processing and reading of structured texts, using different approaches to teaching.- Adoption of new ideas, techniques , sources of material .- Develop tools and techniques for innovative problem solving.- Promotion of imagination through creative thinking . By the end of the training , the participant presents to his colleagues and the school principal , soft and hard copies of all lesson material, to seize together new knowledge in their teaching work immediately.Teachers will create and implement a plan of creative thought suitable for the requirements of their class and their students. They evaluate and consider the results together , drawing together for feedback material. In addition, a mailing list of participants will be created in order to exchange ideas/experiences. It is estimated that students will be able to feel more comfortable when expressing their own creativity in a variety of ways, utilizing much more imaginative in their thinking , after the project ends .The results are advertised on our website. An informative meeting is being arranged, inviting the school councelor , teachers , parents , students , university staff training. Finally, we publish the results of the plan to the local press . The plan provides a guide for further staff training on educational issues, in collaboration with European educational institutions, which may lead to European school partnerships ,with staff and student exchanges. Benefits of " encouraging creative thinking" will have long term impact on the local community, for example, in professional life. Our organisation obtains an active role in the European educational community, our students experience the European dimension of education.
