E-Classes Project: Practical Application of Science Through Flipped Classes

Summary/Abstract: The article is based on the Erasmus+ project E-Classes (Ref. no.: 2017-1-RO01-KA202-037344), which addresses a few educational needs at the European level: the need to raise students’ interest in scientific issues and develop innovative and ICT based teaching approaches to make science learning more attractive and interactive. The article focuses on a new form of learning, flipped learning, which helps teachers to modify their teaching methods and adapt their teaching contents in a more complete, attractive, motivational, and economic way. The article relies on the transdisciplinary use of this method with science and technological school subjects in the VET sector. It introduces the main objectives, outputs and benefits of the project and gives insights into the efforts made to elaborate, train and experiment the flipped classroom pedagogic model by improving VET teachers and students e-competences and by involving companies in the educational process through multimedia enriched apprenticeship simulations, which aim at enhancing youth employability.
