ABOUT OUR PROJECT

Bookpackers around Europe: inspiring trips through past and present cultures, (Booki Cult)  started as a reading club at IES Enric Valor in 2013, today is an eTwinning project, named “Let's create the biggest reading club in Europe (BRCE).” In this project, more than two hundred students vote, read and debate through video conference on the same book. Now, we want to enrich the experience of reading, reflection and debate with that of travel and coexistence. Booki Cult was born from the conviction that reading is ssociated with a series of pedagogical, social and individual needs. Therefore among our objectives are :

• to make the educational community aware of the importance of promoting reading through an international reading club that will involve the entire community.

• to integrate and implement activities that promote active methodologies and significant learning by contemplating reading and literary heritage as a transversal element.

• to improve the linguistic competences of reading comprehension and oral expression in native and
  foreign languages.

• to give value to debate and shared reading. Raise awareness in the educational community of the importance of the debate for the growth of democratic  processes in educational centers.

• to give value to European cultural heritage to increase our European civic identity.
