Quinta mobilità
18-22 May 2022
My second time in Budapest as coordinator of the project was an excellent experience that confirmed the previous one, the kick off in October 2019.
The Italian group, composed of 5 students, a teacher and an administrative, was warmly welcomed at the airport by the Hungarian coordinator and some host students.
It was only two months from the Erasmus week spent in Pisa and 6 weeks from the meeting in Belgium and we all, students and teachers, realised how strong friendship feelings and relationship this Erasmus plus project had created!
The program at Poli was characterised by different activities:
the 5 days included learning by doing experiences presented by the teachers Hajna and Rob, sport games presented by an excellent PE teacher, the vision of the film The chocolate factory, how to make chocolate or soap, a chocolate masterclass, discovering Budapest through different activities for students and teachers. Lab activities were carried out by the students in transational groups in the afternoon.
The best experience for me was the guided tour in Budapest with a professional guide, we learned about Buda and Pest from the historical and artistic point of view, a wonderful city that I advice everyone to visit.
During the five days all the didactic tasks and multicultural objectives in the project were achieved, the week was very rich of stimulating inputs that summarised all the previous weeks in the other countries as in a final closed circle.
A great week in a great school!

Quarta mobilità
From 26th March to 1st April
Our week in Ghent was fantastic due to the relevant artistic importance of the city and … the Erasmus project week that was almost a surprise!
In fact this mobility took place just a fortnight after the week “From bean to brain”in Pisa and all the coordinators had to work hard to fulfil documents, reports and plans the such a short time.
Fortunately the Belgium staff was a great staff, lots of teachers were involved in the project, so we had a really great week, based on interesting excursions in Antwerp, where we visited the museum of chocolate, in Brussels where we visited the European Parliament and lots activities at school but also outdoor. Students enjoyed very much Canoeing Garbage, they had to pick up trash from the river while canoeing and this was very educational.
We shared lots of moments that reinforced teachers relationship and host/guest students friendship, we can say that all the objectives of this Erasmus plus project, English fluency, learning by doing methodology and the topic of cacao were achieved; the feeling of multiculturalism, the most important aspect, was implemented!

Terza mobilità
From Bean to Brain – Pisa 7-11 Marzo
E’ stata una festa la quarta mobilità del progetto Erasmus plus “Culture and History of Cacao dal tema” From Bean to Brain” che si è svolta a Pisa, nel nostro liceo, dal 4 all’11 marzo!
Durante la settimana abbiamo ospitato quattro delegazioni provenienti da Isole Azzorre, Spagna, Ungheria e Belgio, con grande gioia ed emozione da parte dei docenti e degli studenti italiani, dopo la lunga attesa causata dal lockdown.
Il progetto, coordinato per l’Italia dalla prof.ssa Santonocito, ha previsto lo svolgimento di un programma su contenuti letterari e su esperienze scientifiche e artistiche che ben rappresentano la “mission” del liceo Dini, con attività di peer to peer education e metodologia inquiry svolte dai gruppi transnazionali.
Oltre alle attività didattiche, il gruppo Erasmus ha condiviso escursioni nel territorio pisano e visite guidate della città inerenti alle tematiche del progetto.
Dal punto di vista didattico, gli allievi sono stati guidati dalle loro docenti di inglese Proff. Rossi e Santonocito e dalla prof.ssa Marini per la parte scientifica.
La settimana si è conclusa con il completamento dei lavori e la presentazione dei prodotti finali, la consegna degli attestati di partecipazione a docenti e studenti con certificazione Europass e con valutazione e disseminazione del progetto su Twinspace e pagina Facebook dedicata.
E’ stata un’esperienza significativa sul fronte della condivisione di buone pratiche tra scuole europee, forte, emozionante e costruttiva dal punto di vista della cittadinanza intesa come apertura verso orizzonti multiculturali che gettano ponti e non alzano muri tra popoli di diverse nazionalità, ci è sembrata la giusta risposta da parte della scuola al momento storico che stiamo vivendo.
Complimenti ai nostri studenti Erasmus plus che hanno preso parte al progetto e realizzato in maniera brillante le attività presentate ai nostri corrispondenti stranieri!
