Changes in the natural environment caused by the moving of the Earth around the sun throughout the year, as a consequence of the influence of sun on the Earth and living organisms at both local and global level. Only by raising young people’s awareness and making them understand the Sun-Earth systems and the relationship between position of the Earth and Sun impact on it.
The Nature is a very generous subject, that allowed to explore so many topics and areas of knowledge. Beyond the scientific issues that will be approached (astronomical, biological, ecological, geographical features of the Nature, biological/ecological peculiarities of th environments, traditions connected with natural changes, nature and technology, alternative technologies in different European countries, power economy in Europe, the lenghth of lightday in our day to day life, traditions connected with changing seasons, culture/arts etc), the core of our project is to develop in our students skills that will permit them to interact in the future in a proper way with the environment. The goal of the project is to empower the project team in order to understand the functioning of natural processes in the respect of the future generation need, by respecting the sustainable development and sustainable use of the resources in our communities.
The analysis of the local environment, from astronomical point of view and the influence of the changing seasons toward human in different parts of Europe and the comparison of the consequences in diferent European countries, will only be the pretext of developing the students awarness/responsabilities by applying the principle of “learning by teaching”, “life long learning”, “self esteem development” etc, increasing that way the responsibility of the students in confront with the project objectives.
