Observation of schools
Observation of schools One of the tasks of the Share Train partners is facilitating and organizing observation visits to schools that have become benchmarks in the implementation of active methodologies, innovative projects and use of technology, mobile learning and learning spaces and maker spaces.
We visited the following schools in the Bordeux area:
Ensemble Scolaire Saint Louis Sainte Thérèse Bordeaux is a school that is implementing a digital project (class numérique) . A project that started in 2010 and focus on mobile learning and flipped classroom.
Ensemble Scolaire Notre Dame Sevigné is redesigning spaces in the infant and primary classrooms with a low budget and the Collége Lycée Notre Dame Bordeaux is piloting the Heracles project, an innovative project that focus on autonomous learning and make use of PBL, digital tools and design of learning spaces. For them a class is a place in which young students work like researchers on interdisciplinary projects, with only one referent teacher or “guide” who is there to help and accompany them, side by side with the students, not face to face.

Cultural visitsOne of the best ways to support linguistic development and intercultural understanding are social activities and cultural visits. Our host, ISFEC Aquitaine organized very interesting tours around the city of Bordeaux and we enjoyed a wine tasting experience at La Cité du vin. What a nice way to discover and engage with The European Year of Cultural Heritage 2018.
The different sessions and experiences have contributed to our knowledge of new methodologies and innovative practices that will be shared by Sharetrain project.
Remember that our project main objective is to share activities and school experiences worth sharing with you. You can find a detailed description and videos and photos of these experiences and observations in this website and our blogs.
