«Best Practices of Spanish Secondary School Teachers»

Today officially marked the beginning of the Study Visit to Spain within the framework of the international Erasmus+ project “LECTURE.” Berdyansk State Pedagogical University is represented by Rector Ihor Bohdanov, First Vice-Rector Olha Hurenko (project coordinator at BSPU), Coordinator of International Activities Ihor Lyman, and Head of the Department of Pedagogy Khrystyna Petryk.

Together with partner colleagues from other Ukrainian universities, BSPU representatives are exploring best practices in teaching mathematics, history, and languages in secondary schools, as well as the specifics of teacher training at the University of the Balearic Islands (Ibiza, Spain).

The study visit focuses on modern educational approaches, including Mindfulness, Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), and the use of IT in the educational process.

Today’s programme included a visit to the secondary school IES Santa Maria d’Eivissa, where participants were introduced to the school’s infrastructure. The coordinator, Nuria Torres, delivered a presentation about the school, the city of Ibiza, and the education system of the Balearic Islands.

In addition, participants had the opportunity to observe real lessons in English, mathematics, geography, and history within the Job Shadowing format, as well as to communicate with the teaching staff.
