Prosjekt

SOCRATES is an European Education Programme that involves around 30 European countries. Its main objective is precisely to build up a Europe of knowledge and thus provide a better response to the major challenges of this new century: to promote lifelong learning, encourage access to education for everybody, and help people acquire recognised qualifications and skills.

Within Socrates, COMENIUS focuses on the first phase of education, from pre-school and primary to secondary school, and it is addressed to all members of the education community in the broad sense – pupils, teachers, other education staff, but also local authorities, parents' associations, non-government organisations ...COMENIUS supports school partnerships, individual mobility of teachers and student teachers, projects for the training of school education staff, and school education networks. It thus aims to enhance the quality of teaching, strengthen its European dimension and promote language learning and mobility. COMENIUS also emphasises certain important issues: learning in a multi-cultural framework, which is the cornerstone of European citizenship, support for disadvantaged groups, countering under-achievement at school and preventing exclusion.
The Comenius Multilateral Projects aim at developing, promoting and disseminating educational best practice, including new teaching methods and materials, developing or exchanging experiences on information systems for learners, teachers or other education staff, and developing, promoting and disseminating new teacher training courses or course content

Members of this Project have already participated in previous Comenius projects, and more specifically dealing with school bullying (Novas-res COM.2.1, and school violence course COM 2.2), from a multidisciplinary perspective. Members are teachers, psychologist, sociologist, and experts on mediation. Our previous experience and contacts made the conditions to propose a new psycho-educational strategy as a response to teachers needs. Within this context we applied for a Comenius 2.1 which allows us the creation of a teacher course to provide a set of tools for dealing with behavioural problems and student’s motivation.

This is the legal and educational framework where the GOLDEN5 project emerged, which was started in Stavanger –Norway- during a preparatory visit on January 2004. The project started on October 2004.
