Project Description

Description Frase (max. 500 characters): 

ARCHEOSAPORI vuole legare attraverso il cibo di epoca imperiale le culture culinarie di alunni provenienti dalle province dell'ex Impero Romano, intese come contaminazioni positive dei gusti in piatti specifici.
L'iniziativa rappresenta un'occasione di incontro e confronto tra diverse culture essendo il "De re culinaria" di Apicio un manuale presente non solo nelle cucine dei popoli italici, ma anche nelle cucine dell'Africa settentrionale e dell'Asia minore

Project Summary (max. 2000 characters): 

Il cibo tramanda storie e abitudini di vita raccontando molto sull'evoluzione dell'uomo e le sue fasi di crescita; considerato il forte valore simbolico e affettivo che il cibo porta in se, la proposta si sviluppa trasversalmente toccando le sue principali sfere di appartenenza: la cultura, l'identità, il piacere, la conoscenza, la consapevolezza, la relazione, l'interdisciplinarietà e l'intercultura.
Il progetto funge da collettore inclusivo nelle relazioni tra gli alunni di etnie diverse; si intende coinvolgere in modalità itinerante strutture educative, ricreative, ristorative e culturali mediante strumenti di diffusione sociale.

Objectives and Innovative Aspects

Il Progetto Archeosapori mira, in prima battuta, ad allestire una coquina romana itinerante, laddove la lezione di storia si fonde con quella di cucina. Spendibile per qualsiasi epoca storica, il Progetto Archeosapori propone il suo percorso culinario reinterpretando e attualizzando i suggerimenti di Apicio per giungere all'arte del maestro Artusi senza disdegnare Scappi, Tanara e Carnacina. Strizza l'occhio alla cucina storica francese citando Carème, de Bechamel ed Escoffier.

Results

Describe the results achieved by your project How do you measure (parameters) these. (max. 2000 characters): 
Il Progetto Archeosapori è risultato tra i migliori progetti nel concorso regionale "Le scuole della Lombardia per EXPO" classificandosi come primo nella provincia di Cremona e primo tra gli Istituti alberghieri di Lombardia ottenendo uno spazio espositivo presso il Padiglione Italia in Expo il 16 maggio 2015. Non da poco è stata l'eco sui media locali. Diverse sono state le richieste da parte di privati di aprire corsi extrascolastici di cucina storica. Il Progetto Archeosapori ha dimostrato di essere una valida attività curricolare ed extracurricolare contro la dispersione scolastica poiché i numerosi alunni a forte rischio di abbandono scolastico, hanno trovato nuovi stimoli per proseguire gli studi finalizzati al conseguimento del titolo di studio.

What lessons can others learn from your project? (max. 1500 characters): 

Numerosi sono gli spunti educativi del Progetto Archeosapori; dalla Tecnica gastronomica alla Cucina storica passando per la Storia della scienza, chiunque può ritrovare e ritrovarsi in ogni singola portata proposta.
Il confronto scientifico/culinario con altre epoche storiche è immediato: fare propri concetti come biosostenibilità, dieta equilibrata, sviluppo sostenibile, naturale, OGM, slow food è imprescindibile. Non secondaria la riscoperta di gusti, accostamenti, sperimentazioni e visioni enogastronomiche d'altri tempi

Background Information

Barriers and Solutions (max. 1000 characters): 
Il maggiore ostacolo è costituito dall'allestimento della "coquina" vera e propria. Laddove i forni a legna e le fiamme vive sono spesso ostacolo per la pubblica dimostrazione e il porre in essere la singola pietanza, la soluzione di comodo rimane la cucina con fornelli ad induzione. Un secondo ostacolo è dato dalla necessità di avere due spazi separati ma contigui tra l'ambiente "cucina" e l'ambiente "sala" per permettere all'ospite o cliente di cogliere appieno la trasposizione spazio-temporale proposta
Future plans and wish list (max. 750 characters): 
Il Progetto sta già "migrando" verso il Sudamerica con la versione Archeosapori 2.0. Numerosa è la componente venezuelana, boliviana, cilena, peruviana, colombiana e messicana nella nostra scuola. Essendo l'inclusività uno dei primi presupposti per la riuscita del Progetto, la riscoperta delle tradizioni enogastronomiche Maya, Incas ed Azteca è d'obbligo. Il Progetto Archeosapori vorrebbe crescere e diventare una vera e propria Sagra storica del gusto, con un percorso guidato ove chiunque possa riscoprire le micro e macro contaminazioni globali dei sapori in piatti specifici

Project Description

Description Frase (max. 500 characters): 

Students with and without special needs of 4 different countries show eachother in what they are an expert by using 4 themes: computer, gardening, art and cooking.

Project Summary (max. 2000 characters): 

The project ‘Experts academy’ has a student oriented as well as a school oriented intention. With the students we started from the strengths of students with special needs. By working with different themes we showed each other what we are good in. Each partner country has chosen a theme in which the school has a lot of expertise.
For the work with the students we always had the same structure. One of the partners prepared a task for the others according to the theme in which he is an expert. The students took pictures from the result as well as the work process. They sent the images with instructions to the other partners and they had to try to do the same exercise and achieve a good result. We have put together the results of the partners in different ways. In this way we all became an expert in the themes of the others.
In the block of each team we met in the ‘expert-country’. We also took some of our students to the meetings. During the meetings the students worked together and tried to reach a common goal by working on a common result.
On teacher level we have built expertise about integration in education. There for we visited the different partner countries to exchange the ideas of inclusion, integration. The partners worked on a common publication in which we describe the way of working in the different countries together with some reflections, impressions and thoughts.
We had a lot of different activities and different themes to involve as many students as possible.

Objectives and Innovative Aspects

PUPILS:
-To be open minded towards European cultures:
By exchanging working methods and experiences we want to open their minds for European cultures. To achieve this we worked with audiovisual tools.
-To integrate students in mainstream schools and local community:
For future life it is important that students are included in their social environment. To achieve this we have let them work in mixed ability groups.
-To recognize strengths and increase self-esteem:
We wanted to make them aware that they have good qualities and others can learn from them. To achieve this they became an expert on a topic.
-To increase ICT-skills:
ICT can help students to gain autonomy. To achieve this we teached them how to use different ICT-tools by sharing knowledge between students.

TEACHERS:
-To share strategies about how special needs students and mainstream students can interact and cooperate:
sharing our experience can help to improve our pedagogical skills about inclusion. To achieve this we shared methodologies with our partners.
-To compare and adopt new pedagogical approaches according to integration of students in society:
To achieve this we exchanged expertise by observing strategies and methodologies in other countries.
-Improve ICT, language and communication skills:
To achieve this we organised some training sessions on different communication and ICT-tools.
-To value the importance of working together to achieve a common goal:
We believe that knowledge building in teamwork requires some complex processes (discussing, reflecting). To achieve this we organised a possibility to collaborate in our own school and with school partners.

What lessons can others learn from your project? (max. 1500 characters): 

We were scared to travel with our special needs students because of the language. We learned that there is nog reason for fear, because especially our students are very good in communicating by trial and error. They always found a way to understand eachother and ask what they wanted to know.
Others can learn out of the information we collected about inclusion in the different partner schools. The activities and workshops we organised with our students are perfectly usable by others. The step-by-step schemes and descriptions of the tasks are on the Twinspace and can be used.

Are you available to help others to start or work on similar projects?:

Background Information

Barriers and Solutions (max. 1000 characters): 
It was not easy to find common dates for our meetings. Every school has his own agenda and holidays are not always together. Also the weather is sometimes important. We tried to plan everything very long in advance and had a calendar for almost the whole schoolyear everytime.
Future plans and wish list (max. 750 characters): 
At this moment our project is going to his end. The funding of the national agencies ended in june 2014. During the rest of 2014 we finished some paperwork and worked together to apply our project for some labels and prices. We want to get the projet under attention because it was very important for our schools.
