educational paths

Schools training

There school, as a place of knowledge and sharing, is the main cradle of innovative ideas and of visions about the future; for these reasons it could only be one of the main protagonists of the LIFE SALVAGuARDiA project!

Starting from the 2021/22 school year and until 30 November 2023, are activated different Educational Paths aimed at Comprehensive Institutes and Higher Educational Institutes of the area, led by environmental educators of the CAUTO Social Cooperative until places are exhausted.

The paths are centered on insights mainly concerning environmental issues related to the Garda area.
The aim is to develop in students curiosity, awareness, critical thinking, but also a positive and proactive approach, aimed at finding creative solutions.

METHOLODOGY

How we work?

The methodology used is interactive, multidisciplinary and dynamic, preparatory to moments of sharing, participation and action by students. In particular, the educational approach is inspired by the constructivist vision which considers learning as a subjective construction of meanings on the basis of formal (school-given), non-formal (extra-curricular) and informal (implicit learning) experiences.

Participating is easy!

Sign up and follow the directions.

Your school will become part of the LIFE SALVAGuARDiA network and you will be able to share your work with others, helping to raise awareness on sustainability issues and receiving the LIFE SALVAGuARDiA brand as a project Ambassador!
Registration for AS 2022/2023 by 30 October 2022

Life SalvaGuARDiA, for the purposes of the necessary territorial monitoring, needs 3 minutes of your time to measure the effectiveness of the actions promoted through the answers you will send us by completing a simple questionnaire

I begin with me, the refusal that is not there

TARGET: 4th and 5th Primary School

Purpose of the path

Spreading the culture of environmental sustainability through an active citizenship training course. Promote awareness of everyone's co-responsibility in protecting the environment and affect individual behaviors making them more sustainable for a good quality of life and air.

SOS Biodiversity

TARGET: All Primary + 1st grade secondary classes

Purpose of the path

The centrality of the role played by Biodiversity in the balance mechanisms of our planet will be illustrated: it is the expression of innumerable relationships between species, thus enriching life, as opposed to extinction, impoverishment and homologation.

The innumerable areas of naturalistic interest present on the territory of the Brescia side of Lake Garda will be reported, therefore the precious biodiversity that lives there. We will also provide useful tools for the recognition and enhancement of local fauna and flora.

In the same way, the possible threats that could limit and hinder the development of this biodiversity will also be presented.

100% Water

TARGET: All Primary + 1st grade secondary classes

Purpose of the path

Spreading the culture of environmental sustainability through a training course of knowledge of the path of water and its vital importance for the life of living beings. Make students aware of the damage caused by climate change to the surrounding environment. Spread an education in ecological thinking.

CLIMATE CHANGE

TARGET: All 1st grade secondary classes

Purpose of the path

Make students aware of the damage done by humans to the surrounding environment, with a central focus on climate change and global warming. The causes and consequences of this phenomenon will be investigated, both on a global and local scale, by analyzing and observing the damage that is unfortunately already tangible also on our territory.

We therefore imagine a new way of acting on a daily basis through concrete and feasible practices by each of us, in order to lighten our impact on the planet and make the territory more usable and healthy, with a view to active and co-participated sustainability. .

Make goals for the environment - primary schools

TARGET: All Primary classes

NB For this course it is necessary to register at least 5 classes per school

Path

In one day, or several days, stands will be set up at the school in several places (garden, gym, porch, atrium) recalling the moment of play and party, but rich in contents and didactic purposes.

Why the game?

Turning to schools we cannot overlook the fundamental fact that play is the daily "work" of every child, an indispensable element for socialization, but also for learning. The game, if it is well addressed, offers the child concrete and direct experiences within his own environment and context of life.

Why the party?

The term party immediately evokes in our imagination a pleasant, relaxed moment of joy and fun with the characteristic of exceptionality and is inserted in the memories as a pleasant moment.

Exceptionality, in the pedagogical field, has positive feedback as a temporary form of education due to the attractive and captivating aspect of the event, touching every sphere of the person (motor, affective, social, cognitive), promoting growth and pupil development.

Starting from these assumptions, Fai Goals per l'Ambiente interprets the party as a "tool" with a strong educational value because it is able to transmit messages and consolidate teachings.

Paths for Superiors

TARGET: All high school classes

Path

The educational path is divided into two phases:

Knowledge and in-depth study of the chosen topic, through the intervention of a CAUTO teacher / expert in the environmental education sector.
Creation of an output chosen from:
