OENOLOGICAL PROJECT
Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

We present this project carried out by the schools of Agrupamento Vertical de Escolas de Cristelo (Portugal), the scuola immacolata de novara (italy), the collège du plantaurel in Cazères (Francia) and the Colegio Aurelio Gómez Escolar in Burgos (Spain). After a self-assessment process, it is considered as one of the main aims to enhance the promotion of culture and European unity and the integration of students with procedures of group work with multivariate students of the European community. The work and coordination team of the project are teachers, covering groups of students from the 3rd E. S. O. (14-15 year-old Spanish students), students of the same age in the Collège du Plantaurel in Cazeres (France), 3rd scuola media (12-13-14 year-old Italian students) and 9th course of compulsory education (14-15 year-old Portuguese), group supervised by the team and school leadership of the schools described. The Spanish school where the project is being developed is located on the outskirts of the city of Burgos; the Portuguese school is located in the small city of Cristelo, close to Porto; the French school is in a small town located in the region of Haute Garonne and the Italian School is in Novara, an average city located in the Piedmont. They are therefore four schools with a similar social and cultural environment. The project is an experience that seeks to foster in students the entrepreneurial spirit. Students will create an oenological company monitoring aspects of wine making, as well as economic, administrative and legal aspects. Students will be divided into working groups, groups consisting of students of the four schools, groups covering an area of knowledge. The aims of each of the areas are linked to the curriculum of each subject and the work is carried out and evaluated according to its own assesment criteria. The presentations in the classroom and the publication of works in a network will serve pupils to acquire knowledge outside of the area that develops. Besides, the areas are completely associated with each other and the assessment of basic skills will be used to assess the skills acquired by students. Obviously, all the material developed will be evaluated to a level for their age and knowledge and it will be analyzed with constructive considerations for the students. To sum up and taking into account the Initial Assessment of the School and quality criteria, the project is based on the following basis: 1. The student will be part of a working group together with students from other countries by exchanging information and knowledge, in attention to the search for new teaching methodologies and environments for learning. 2. The group work seeks as cross curricular aims to create an appropriate atmosphere of coexistence. 3. The work will be developed in a network, looking for a decisive support in information technologies. 4. This work will be carried out mainly in English, both in the videoconferences developed and in almost all the work produced. The use of Facebook and whatsapp will be encouraged in students. 5. A blog where to publish all the multimedia material developed will be generated. 6. A project linked to core areas is generated, encouraging entrepreneurship in the students as well. 7. The project will be linked to several areas of knowledge, so it will require the supervision of several teachers from the four schools. 8. The student will be asessed by the work required. 9. The project will have several assessment systems. 10. The educational community made up of the teaching, the leadership, the students and their parents will have up-to-date information of the project through the blog of the project and the websites of the schools. Within the project, there is a common area in which all of the students will be evaluated: the area of the English language. The project will be divided into five areas within the five areas of work; biology, technology, mathematics, ICT and entrepreneurship. Practices and activities associated with each of the areas will be developed; students should acquire the accompanying concepts in the curriculum project to develop their job properly. The concepts will be acquired in the classroom, taught by the teachers, and through researching, the information provided by their classmates and the reading comprehension on the part of the students, always supervised by the teachers in charge of the subjects. Finally, re-emphasize in the design oriented motivate students at risk of school failure (practical approach to the project) and aimed at facilitating the opening of the four centers and students for his departure to Europe, which currently only available to a minority of students. The project is encouraging, participatory and oriented to entrepreneurship.
