Project activities
-To raise awareness of cultural heritage pupils complete introductory tasks (a video pool research on cultural heritage, seminar classes on the changes in the attitude to heritage protection in the past, animation presenting factors that influenced cultural heritage in the country in the past, data mining on tourism). Before each mobility, pupils brainstorm ideas for presentation and case study, host pupils are involved in field trip arrangements. Pupils take part in five short-term exchanges in partner schools where mobility activities are held under the main theme (debate on cultural heritage issues, designing enterprise, workshops, field trips). The entrepreneurship techniques applied in the field trip activities include: brain-storming ideas, SWOT analyse, elements of feasibility study including technical, strategic and market analyses, elements of business plan, negotiations, decision tree etc.
