HIGH TIDES PARTNERSHIP PROJECT

Full Title: Cross Diciplinary peer learning using Nautical Studies and ICT

The purpose of this project is to share best practice in 14-19 maritime education across Europe.
• The rationale for this project is to use ICT based peer-learning to modernize teaching methods in our schools via
1- Improving student and teacher digital literacy
2-Creating local sources of ICT based pedagogical and maritime education resources and
3-Creating a uniform digital learning environment within the participating schools in the project.

• Our project will seek to address the above three identified development areas by implementing peer learning methods on ICT platforms; in this way we hope to reduce the current negative aspects of one student-one computer based learning and realize the full potential of computers in schools.

• Peer learning is defined as students themselves teaching/communicating knowledge to students at the same level. The process of explaining to others establishes learning at a deeper level within the student doing the explaining, while the student receiving help has the chance to ask questions on their own level to his/her peers without loss of prestige or embarrassment. Together the students become jointly responsible for their own learning; such as sense of responsibility and ownership has been shown to be a critical aspect of successful learning.
