PETIC
is a comprehensive project aimed to equip Physical Education (PE) teachers of primary
and secondary education with the appropriate knowledge and skills for raising
their own and pupils’ intercultural competence level. By the designing of a
Learning Management System and through a Digital Education ecosystem, project
attempts to upscale PE teachers’ learning and teaching competences for
designing and implemented competence based didactic scenarios tailored made to
the needs of their multicultural pupils. Additionally, project aims to ensure
equal opportunities for all and attemps to encourage and involve schools and
teachers with no experience in European projects, work in schools with high
rate of migrant and refugee students and in remote and urban areas, that are
most reluctant, or face
various participation difficulties. PETIC intends to convert PE into a setting
of exploratory learning, research, and expression, and lead all students,
regardless of their cultural background, to achieve intercultural
understanding, communication and sensitivity. Finally, project takes advantage
of the diverse cultural perspectives of all partners and through the exchanging
of experience and good practices aims to promote innovative, inclusive and
multilingual pedagogies, to support national reforms and promote social
inclusion.
