The Young Sociopreneurs: A project in Social Entrepreneurship in EU Schools (2021-2-EL01-KA210-SCH-000050235)
The Educational Toolkit aims to train and empower
teachers & principals/directors of schools on teaching practices of
entrepreneurship and especially social and green entrepreneurship and social
economy to students.
Teachers will become familiar with the concept of
social economy and learn tools and methodologies in order to adopt and
introduce them into their teaching. The training manual will include modules
and detailed chapters on social entrepreneurship. The training material will
also provide information and insights on how to integrate e-learning and other
digital tools into training courses to support engagement, online team
collaboration and document sharing, providing useful tips on how to use
multiple platforms such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or online educational games
such as Kahoot and more digital tools such as Dotstorming, Padlet, Wakelet,
Bubbl.us, Mind Mapping Tools, as well as group communication applications such
as Slack, Trello, Popplet.
The abilities of the teachers that will be strengthened through the study of the manual are:
- Knowledge of Social & Green businesses, Social
entrepreneurship, basic skills
- Teaching methods and professional competence
- Management, Marketing, Leadership, Problem Solving -
Increasing social and environmental awareness
- Business planning and programming
Indicative manual sections
We recommend that the
modules contain 6 Units.
• Each Unit should have this structure:
1. Purpose for the unit and a brief description of the
main objectives
2. The expected learning outcomes
3. The material for the unit
4. Digital teaching tools and applications
5. Video – Supervisory material
6. Evaluation tools (questionnaire, open questions,
quizzes, etc.)
Chapter – Unit presentations
Unit 1. Introduction Social entrepreneurship, Social Economy
and related concepts (unit 1)
Unit 2. Social Entrepreneurship & Social/Green Businesses (success stories).
Here we will provide indicative material that needs to be
enriched. Maybe here even a a detailed example how APTET works will be nice
since you are social company right? Not an NGO.

Other instructions

On Thursday 09-03-2023 and within the framework of the program " Recycling and Entrepreneurship at School " (Erasmus + SOSentre) a book exchange day was organized at our school. (Give one - Get one). Both students and teachers participated in the activity. Everyone could bring one or more books of any category (children's, novels, school supplies, comics, etc) and exchange them again. The participation was satisfying. Thanks to everyone who participated!
The teachers of the 4th GEL of Larisa Gatselis Christos, Dedousi Maria and Domanoglou Kiriaki in the context of the environmental education programs Recycling and entrepreneurship in schools I, II and Erasmus+ SoSEntre visited on 6/2/2023 the facilities of the Hellenic Environmental Recycling company based in Larissa and has as its object the recycling of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment. The manager of the company, Mr. George Prassas, informed the teachers that since its establishment in 2008 until the end of 2022, the company has diverted 26460 tons of waste from landfill. Of this amount, a greater part concerns metals and plastics which are promoted to the respective industries for further processing and reuse, but there are also polluting substances which, thanks to the correct management they receive, do not burden the environment...
Discussed objects:
1. What about mapping research
2. A year from the start day, what we have done
3. What we have to do next ...
