Who are we?

_Explica - Centro Apz Complementar copy.png

@Explica develops activities in the field of educational support from the 1990s and follows a line of development, it has been following a development line, supported by innovation and pedagogical quality that has resulted in the diversification of the services provided, in the increase of the target audience, in the improvement of the infrastructures.It has recently integrated Erasmus+ training into its strategic line by offering courses for teachers under Key Action 1 of the program.
 

This strategic option is based on the fact that there is currently extensive experience in the implementation of Erasmus+ projects in schools, in which several @Explica professionals are involved. The wide network of work, the wide knowledge of schools, experiences the attendance of structured courses leading us to believe that we are able to offer high quality training experiences for European teachers. Our commitment is to promote professional and personal development, with conditions of reference, in a place as special as Madeira.  
At the same time, we aim to increase @Explica's work network and the teachers and institutions that attend our courses to create new opportunities for cooperation. Our courses include a formal learning component, a cultural knowledge program of Madeira, a social component for the development of interpersonal relationships and an inheritance component of the lived experience.

The MátrixSuli Primary School has been operating successfully for 4 years, with three member institutions: in Budapest, Budaörs and Kecskemét. The school, which is operated by a foundation, carries out its quality pedagogical work based on the subject regulations of the centrally prescribed National Foundation Curriculum. With this, we ensure transferability to any elementary school and responsibly prepare our students for secondary school education. Therefore, we are not an alternative school, but we have developed the specific image of our school. We primarily prepare children for the expectations of the 21st century, by acquiring skills that will enable them to stand their ground in today's still unpredictable future. We place great emphasis on the development of skills and personality. We educate creative, happy and responsible young people with good communication and cooperation skills, who are able to identify and solve problems, are persistent and have a high level of emotional intelligence. The course of our lessons differs from traditional school methods. For the sake of efficiency, we operate with smaller classes of no more than 15 people, and we often block the curriculum. We learn in interesting projects, cooperative learning, cooperation and activity-oriented, pedagogical methods supporting active participation come to the fore in our classes. Our modern experiential pedagogic procedures allow us to learn in extracurricular programs as well. We consider it important to build so that, in addition to guided activities, students can independently plan and organize their learning processes and take responsibility for their own duties and tasks. In our constantly changing world, we respond sensitively to the needs of children.

Why So? - Searching for Reasons and Possible Solutions of the Effective Teaching Method-Gaps in Public Education

The aim of the project is not to introduce new teaching methodologies - which would not be used in the same way as others. It does present some new techniques, but only in order to guide the experimentation of their implementation and to identify more precisely the factors that prevent the process from being successful. The main focus is on the experiment itself, its evaluation (which is supported by a SWOT analysis also) and the recommendations for solutions based on the evaluated results. A more precise understanding and definition of the causes offers the opportunity to build a network of coaches around public education, who, after appropriate training, can help teachers in the teaching process, taking into account their circumstances, the exact reasons for failure, understanding their personal and systemic problems, providing personalised and differentiated help, with a focus on mental and physical health recovery.
