Short project description
The project ,,Let's learn for knowledge" began in December 2015 and was completed in June 2016.
Participated in two secondary schools in Serbia (Nis, Prokuplje), one from Macedonia (Prilep), and one school from Turkey (Istanbul).
The project is aimed at students aged 15 to 19 years.
The aim of the project is to show students the importance of learning with understanding. The essence of the method is the Inquirer and get to know the research, and the ideas or concepts that lead to the understanding that becomes deeper and deeper with age students.
Since December 2015.do May 2016. processed very interesting topics. Last Sunday of the month were introduced (via Skype or Live event events) topics that are researched pupils and teachers of schools participating in the project. After each presentation, realized a discussion with all parties on how to research, difficulties in research, the results, experiences, etc. The communication is performed in English.

Pedagogical innovation and creativity
The aim of the project is to show students the importance of learning with understanding. The essence of the method is the Inquirer and get to know the research, and the ideas or concepts that lead to the understanding that becomes deeper and deeper with age students.
Since December 2015.do May 2016. were processed very interesting topics. Last Sunday of the month were introduced (via Skype or Live event events) topics that are researched pupils and teachers of schools participating in the project. After each presentation, realized a discussion with all parties on how to research, difficulties in research, the results, experiences, etc. The communication is performed in English.
Students were teaching the choir concrete topics (projects) were collectors information on the Internet and in the school library. Critically analyze the information collected and based on them created the text of the selected temi.Na the basis of the final version of the text, made the presentation in Power Point.
Students were free to choose to study the problem. Each group made a research plan and determine responsibilities on individuals. Each individual was required to process their part, and processed parts were then merged into a whole. Teachers were routers work of students.
Applied methods
Cooperative learning in groups, the students, with the use of devices (computer, internet, library books) doing research on a chosen topic. In this way students are taught various levels of knowledge together in small groups. You are responsible for their own learning. Divided learning (study) gave students the opportunity to participate in the discussion, take responsibility for their own learning and the exchange of ideas has increased the interest among students, improve critical thinking.
Methods used:
- Monologue, with the presentation of the research; dialogue: teacher-student, and student-student; and discussion among students;
- The method of use of the text, the use of texts on the Internet and in books;
- Applied types of work: the frontal and work in small groups.
Communication and exchange among the partner schools
For communication are used: TwinSpace forum, email, tools Live event, Skype, facebook messenger, google drive, Google hangout, You Tube.
The results of different studies, we asked the TwinSpace space. Some of the results (video recordings of activities) were placed on You Tube, and sharing presentations, photos and documents were used Google Drive and email.
Each video meeting was well planned and designed. About the time and manner of presentation dogaovarale the teachers who worked with students of project activities. At these meetings trial, tried out the tool for presentation, agreed upon a start time and duration of connection, a discussion of these and kojac be presented. The results of operations of each study a variety of topics, students are the other project participants (students and teachers) through Skype or Live eTwinning event on the Twin Space. After the presentation, I always take the time to discuss students and teachers where students ask questions, discuss their experiences, commenting on the survey results, a discussion of the ways in which the research was conducted on a given subject, etc.
The cooperation between partner schools
At the end of each month, starting in December 2015. It is organized video meeting via Skype or in which they represented under one mini project ie. Research and results of research on the topic. Schedule presentation topic is as follows:
1. December 2015: Board of Plastic, Technical school ,, 15 May "from Prokuplje, Serbia, presented their research on recycling PET packaging, how harmful PET packaging, whether you can make a plastic that is less harmful to the environment how they can make bioplastics.
2. January 2015 .: Differential calculus, ETS ,, Nikola Tesla ", Nis, Serbia
3 February 2015 .: The light pollution, SOU ,, Orde Cope ", Prilep Macedonia,
4 March 2015: Landfill gas as an energy source, Gymnasium, Istanbul, Turkey
5 March 2015 .: Eratosthenes experiment (measurement of Earth's circumference using trigonometry and stick) worked three schools on the day of the vernal equinox and their results presented at the Twin Space.
6 May, 2016: Great scientific Neolithic party, multidisciplinary scientific event in the archaeological park of the causeway, near Prokuplje, Serbia. One of the organizers of the Technical school ,, May 15 "Prokuplje, at the invitation of the school joined the teachers Carolina Damjanoski i Slavica Petrovska and students from SOU ,, Orde COPE," Prilep, Macedonia.
All project activities are presented in detail on the project website: http://learningwithinquiry.weebly.com/
All project partners are cooperating in the agreement on the date of presentation of topics, new topics that will be of interest to students, as well as the agreement on arrival in Serbia, their accommodation, travel, student activities, visits, etc.
Students had joint discussions during skajp meetings were presented their own research.
Use of technology

Video materials are placed on the TwinSpace space for materials created or direct recording of the atmosphere (camera, mobile phone, fotoaparatm, tablet) during the study or during the presentation of research results. To create a video of pictures used are free software tools: PhotoStory, MovieMaker, Stupeflix. Also on the site are placed and video recordings Radio Television of Serbia (contribution to the emission of Serbia today and contribution in Dnevniku2).
Video meetings of teachers and students are organized via Skype, and scheduling events with eTwinning tools Live event.

Within the project, pupils and other founder of the project, Karolina Damjanoski students accepted the invitation to come to Serbia and join us to jointly popularize science through joint activities at the great event that our school is organized in the Archaeological Park Pavement. Cooperation with the school SOU ,, Orde Cope "from Prilep will certainly continue in the future, regardless of whether the project will have a sequel or not. Also, cooperation with other schools participating in the project will continue through the continuation of this or a new project.

Also, the results achieved during the project are:
- Students showed great ability for independent information gathering and demonstrated that know how to critically choose information they received from various sources which have contributed to the development of creative thinking .
- They showed a high level of intrinsic motivation for learning and research;
- They showed a good ability to present ideas and information as well as communication skills (to listen to each other, discuss, argue their positions, take into account other people's ideas);
Within the project, pupils and other founder of the project, Karolina Damjanoski students accepted the invitation to come to Serbia and join us to jointly popularize science through joint activities at the great event that our school is organized in the Archaeological Park Pavement.
