▶Objectives
The aim of the project Application of ICT tools in entrepreneurship education is to improve the digital competences of teachers and students, acquire new knowledge and skills in the application of ICT tools in entrepreneurship education, as well as prepare for the modern labor market. Improving digital competences and using ICT tools would contribute to strengthening the formal and informal education of students. Teachers would improve their methodological and didactic skills and modernize teaching by applying modern technologies in entrepreneurship education and other subjects. The benefit of the project is also intercultural learning of students and the development of skills that contribute to better coping in a new and unfamiliar environment. Teachers would implement the acquired knowledge in teaching and learning plans. The implementation of the project will have a positive impact on the overall work of the school, strengthen the network of international contacts and partnerships, and the project results and teaching materials will be included in the school's education strategy. The benefits of the project will also be felt by the local community, surrounding schools, as well as the students' parents.
▶Activities
The project planned and implemented six activities: Preparatory visits - project management in Slavonski Brod and Smederevo, Project implementation in Slavonski Brod and Smederevo, Project implementation - creation of teaching materials and Promotional activities - dissemination of the project. During the preparatory visits to both schools, the project participants got acquainted with the working methods of the partner school, the profiles they educate, agreed on the dynamics of the project implementation and defined tasks for all participants. During the 3rd and 4th activities, 4 students and 3 teachers each visited Slavonski Brod and Smederevo, got acquainted with the work of the school, attended classes in Entrepreneurship, Politics and Economy and other subjects, where ICT tools were applied in teaching, and got acquainted with the cultural and historical sights of the city. In the 5th activity, the teaching material Guide to Entrepreneurship was developed in Serbian and Croatian. The project was disseminated by teachers from both partner schools in schools in the city and surrounding areas, at the Teachers' Council, Professional Councils, and Professional Meetings.
▶Impact
The project yielded excellent results. Teaching was improved by using ICT tools, new teaching materials and modern methods in teaching entrepreneurship. Students improved their digital and professional competences, acquired new knowledge and skills, as well as the ability to create a personal CV and portfolio, which improved their position in the labor market. Teachers developed digital, communicational, ethical and entrepreneurial competences, as well as awareness of the importance of applying modern technologies and teaching methods used in the EU. New teaching units were included in the curricula. Positive evaluation results confirmed the success of the activity. The teaching material Guide to Entrepreneurship was well received by colleagues, with the remark that they will use it in teaching. One of the important outcomes is the increased interest of teachers in participating in Erasmus+ projects and applying new methods in teaching. After the presentations, several colleagues from elementary schools requested support in developing projects, which contributes to the expansion of the Erasmus+ program.
