Objetives of the project
We have set up 6 main objetives for this project. (updated with the implementations of the objetives)
1) Create a virtual museum with craft trades in Europe to contribute to conserving European cultural heritage, enhancing its value and guaranteeing its transmission to future generations.
We will work with the students and teachers using the Etwinning project to make the collaborations between students in differents countries. The result has been a website with information about many crafts in europe the Product A44 : museum.eucrafts.eu
2) Develop an app with “App inventor” that collects the artisan trades that are at risk of disappearing in Europe.
Students & Teachers will collaborate to create an app with this information using a Etwinning project to improve the collaboration between students. This product can be downloaded in this link http://eucrafts.eu/a43-app-with-trades-at-risk-getting-lost/
3) Promote employability and youth entrepreneurship in the craft sector, based on the opportunities offered by new technologies, in order to attract young people to these trades in a way that guarantees their continuity.
This objetive will be developed in several final products. Economics & ITC Teachers will create an exelearning didactics units to improve the entrepreneurship in relation with crafts. It will be translated to many languages of the project. This Didactic units can be downloaded in this link http://eucrafts.eu/a38-enterpreneurship-didactic-units-final-product/
