e-School bank project has brought together three high schools from Croatia, Italy, and Portugal. This initiative has aimed to create innovative methodologies and best practices for teaching financial economics and banking services.

In the true spirit of Erasmus+ programme, these schools embarked on a journey of collaboration and cultural exchange. Their collective goal was to develop digital tools that would enhance the teaching-learning experience both for teachers and students in the field of finance and banking. Together, they designed and developed a website, an app, and a mobile application, all available in the three national languages and English, to simulate banking services and operations. All the project partners have been working to combine technical expertise with innovative ideas to create cutting-edge platforms.

The project’s main objective was to provide students with a practical and immersive learning experience in the world of IT and finance. By using these digital resources, students could explore various financial scenarios, practice decision-making skills, and gain a deeper understanding of the intricacies of banking services. The simulations offered a safe and controlled environment where students could experiment with different financial strategies and observe the consequences of their actions.

Throughout the project, the schools collaborated closely, sharing ideas, methodologies, and expertise. Teachers and students from each country contributed their unique perspectives, enriching the overall outcome. The cross-cultural exchange of knowledge and practices fostered an environment of growth and innovation, ensuring that the final products were comprehensive and effective.

Not only did this project enhance students’ understanding of financial economics, but it also strengthened their digital skills and language proficiency. Working together on a multilingual platform allowed teachers and students to improve their communication skills while embracing linguistic diversity. They learned to navigate cultural differences, adapting and respecting different approaches to finance and education.

The impact of this Erasmus+ project extends beyond the participating schools. The developed resources have the potential to be shared with other educational institutions, benefiting students and educators across Europe. By disseminating these methodologies and best practices, the project aims to contribute to the advancement of financial education on a broader scale.

In conclusion, this project exemplifies the true essence of Erasmus+. Through collaboration, cultural exchange, and innovation, the schools involved have created a set of outstanding digital resources for teaching financial economics and banking services. Their efforts have not only enriched the learning experiences of all the participants but also set a benchmark for future initiatives in the field.

All this has been possible thanks to the EU and national supportive institutions. May the impact of this collaboration continue to inspire and empower generations of learners to come.
