The Comenius 3 E-CONS network, based on its long-established experience, aims with the ENFORMA EC, to organize a European Trainers Training Meeting in order to consolidate the progress achieved and to place them at the disposal of a crucial issue “Energy saving”, using methodologies that revolve around the school ambit, since everything shows that it is essential to educate for rational energy consumption, preventing wanton waste. The project satisfies the needs of information, training and education in a fundamental subject: saving energy.

Through the teachers attending/participating in the Meeting and those who will use the multimedia didactic material, we will reach pupils, families and society as a whole. The project comes to cover a need asked for by the members of the E-CONS Network in terms of useful, educational, and didactic resources that work in the classroom making pupils aware of the real need to save energy, taking advantages of good practices already carried out and new multimedia ideas.

The direct target group of the project, in the short term are the 150 teachers who will attend the Meeting and the 10,000 who will receive the DVD; in the mid-term the pupils and families, as well as those who visit our website. In the long term, citizens in general. The E-CONS network bases its activity on cooperative learning, boosting active participation of its members, the analysis and evaluation of actions, the use of new technology and strategies to “learn how to learn”.
