The project aimed to increase English and Math competences of students aged 15-19 using innovative teaching methods integrated with ICT. Cooperative strategies were utilized among partner countries like Turkey, Italy, Belgium, and Lithuania. Responsibilities were divided among countries for communication, budgeting, quality management, and dissemination. The project successfully achieved goals including improving student motivation, teaching methods, exam success rates, medial literacy, speaking skills, cooperative studying, self-esteem, and Europan citizenship awareness. The results showed positive impact on students' vocational competence in web programming and designing, mobile application development, and social media usage.
