Designed by Rooster Design – Greece Printed in the European Union CATALOGUE 2010/11 1 About the study visits programme The study visits programme for education and vocational training specialists, part of the lifelong learning programme 2007-13 (LLP), is an initiative of the European Commissionʼs Directorate-General for Education and Culture. Its objective is to support policy development and cooperation at European level in lifelong learning, notably in the context of the Lisbon process and the education and training agenda 2020 (E&T2020), as well as the Bologna and Copenhagen processes and their successors. As from 1 January 2008, Cedefop (European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training) coordinates, on behalf of the European Commission, the study visits for education and vocational training specialists and policy-makers from 2008 to 2013. A study visit is a short-term visit of three to five days for a small group of specialists and decision-makers representing various groups of education and vocational training. They are stakeholders who want to examine a particular aspect of lifelong learning in another Member State. The profile of a participant corresponds mainly to one of the following categories: • company training managers; • directors of education and vocational training institutions, centres or providers; • directors of guidance centres; • directors of validation or accreditation centres; • educational and vocational training inspectors; • head teachers, teacher trainers; • heads of departments; • human resource managers; • owners/managers of SMEs; • pedagogical or guidance advisers; • representatives of chambers of commerce/ industry/crafts; • representatives of education and training networks and associations; • representatives of educational services, labour offices or guidance centres; • representatives of employersʼ organisations; • representatives of local, regional and national authorities; • representatives of trade unions; • researchers. The groups normally consist of 10 to15 participants. Study visits are organised locally or regionally and coordinated by the National Agency. They provide a forum for discussion, exchange and learning on themes of common interest and on European and national priorities. By exchanging innovative ideas and practices, participants promote the quality and transparency of their education and training systems. HOW TO APPLY If you want to participate in a visit, please contact your National Agency to check eligibility and other procedures. They evaluate and select candidates, and also provide any further information or clarification. A list of contact persons in your country is available online at: http://studyvisits.cedefop.europa.eu 2 CEDEFOP – STUDY VISITS Read the catalogue carefully.

  • Suggestopaedia – Desuggestive Teaching
    SUGGESTOPAEDIA – DESUGGESTIVE TEACHING COMMUNICATIVE METHOD ON THE LEVEL OF THE HIDDEN RESERVES OF THE HUMAN MIND My personal belief is that human hidden reserves are endless. However, science has reached an understanding that they are far larger than currently realized?. (Dr. G. Lozanov?s speech at the meeting of the twenty UNESCO experts,1978) (Actually, the beginning of a new science reservology , i.e. tenderly use the oppressed capabilities we have in our minds, starts. Instead of suggestopaedia in the future the science and the methodology will be called reservopaedia.) In the very early stage when the present book was started, Bill Munro and Lupe, San Diego, U.S.A, were very kind to edit it and to advice me for some topics. Five years later when the book was enlarged Czeslawa Rudawska, Katowice, Poland, was very kind to edit it. It was very kind of Keneward Hill, Sofia, Bulgaria, to edit the book before publishing. The parts of the book about the latest development of suggestopaedia-desuggestive teaching were translated by Radostina Ivanova Mihaleva, Sofia, Bulgaria. 1 I kindly express gratitude to Professor Setsuko Iki, Tokyo, Japan, for her help with providing me with favourable conditions for writing.

Ivanova OCCULT COMMUNISM: CULTURE, SCIENCE AND SPIRITUALITY IN LATE SOCIALIST BULGARIA BY VENETA T. IVANOVA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Maria N. Todorova, Chair Professor Diane P. Koenker Associate Professor Zsuzsa Gille Associate Professor Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi Professor Peter Fritzsche Abstract “Occult Communism” explores the unlikely infusion of state-sponsored spiritualism into the materialist ideology of Bulgarian late communism. In the 1970s, Minister of Culture Lyudmila Zhivkova initiated grandiose state programs to inject the “occult” into Bulgaria’s national culture, art, science and even political philosophy. Inspired by her Eastern religious beliefs, she sought to ‘breed’ a nation of “all-round and harmoniously developed individuals,” devoted to spiritual self-perfection, who would ultimately “work, live and create according to the laws of beauty.” My project focuses on how Zhivkova translated her religio-philosophical worldview into state policies. I examine three realms of what I have termed “occult communism:” Zhivkova’s domestic and international cultural initiatives; occult religiosity and the mystical movement known as the White Brotherhood; and occult science as embodied by the Scientific Institute of Suggestology. I contend that as quixotic as Zhivkova’s vision was, her policies contributed to the liberalization of art and culture in a period that has long been associated exclusively with stagnation and decay.

  • Adapting an English Language Textbook to the Principles and Laws of Suggestopedia Dessislava Georgieva Todorova-Hlavacik*
    90 Challenges in English Teaching and Research Adapting an English language textbook to the principles and laws of Suggestopedia Dessislava Georgieva Todorova-Hlavacik* Abstract: The article aims to describe the application of Suggestology in the pedagogical practice – Suggestopedia/Reservopedia. An overview of “suggestion” as a communicative factor and as a psychological basis for the science of Suggestology is presente together with the main principles, means and laws of Suggestopedia. Some characteristics of the suggestopedic textbook and my work in remodelling the original textbook “Energy for Bulgaria, for the 6-th grade” into a new stopedically adapted version are presented. Key words: suggestion, suggestology, suggestopedia, suggestopedic textbook Introduction Teachers of foreign languages often have an idea about the teaching/learning process formed on their experience of studying foreign languages themselves. When teachers are informed and exposed to varieties of different methods they become more aware of their personal values and beliefs about the educational process. By being clear on their own assumptions teachers may choose to teach differently. Thus, the knowledge of various alternative methods will help them in modifying their current practices. One humane method which deserves attention because it has proven to be effective for teaching many subjects including foreign languages is the method called Suggestopedia. It is based on the Suggestology science, and its founder is the Bulgarian scientist, psychotherapist and psychiatrist – Prof. Dr. Georgi Lozanov M.D., who in the 1950s began his search for safe ways to uncover the reserves of the human brain (mind) through suggestion and thus created the science of Suggestology. Doctor Lozanov was the director of the Research Institute of Suggestology founded by the Ministry of Education and the Bulgarian Science Academy in 1966, for the period of 20 years (1966-1985).

  • Some Personal Observations of SALT, Suggestopedia and Other Accelerative Learning Methods in Japan and Europe Si Grid Gassner-Roberts
    PER LINGUAM VOL. 2 NO. 11986 http://perlinguam.journals.ac.za Some personal observations of SALT, Suggestopedia and other accelerative learning methods in Japan and Europe Si grid Gassner-Roberts During the last six months of 1984, the author of this paper travelled to Japan and to several Western European countries, investigating Suggestopedia and other accelera­ tive learning methods. The original suggestopedic method as developed by Dr Georgi Lozanov has undergone many changes and adaptations to suit the cultural and political situation of individual countries. This article gives an overview of the changes and adaptations made by the different countries as well as an evaluation of the amount of success with which a given country has adapted Suggestology to suit its own particular needs and circumstances. Gedurende die tweede helfte van 1984 het die skrywer van hierdie artikel na Japan, sowel as na verskeie Wes-Europese Jande gereis met die doel om ondersoek in te stel na Suggestopedagogiek en ander versnellingsmetodes in die onderwys. Die oorspronklike suggestopediese metode soos ontwikkel deur Dr Georgi Lozanov, het baie verander­ inge ondergaan en is aangepas om in te skakel by die kulturele en politieke omstandig­ hede van die onderhawige lande. Met hierdie artikel word 'n oorsig gegee oor die veranderings; die aanpassings word bespreek en die skrywer gee 'n evaluering van die mate van sukses wat daarmee behaal is. In 1984 I spent seven months in Japan and Europe SALT in Australia. After five hours of a rather in pursuit of SALT, Suggestopedia and other ac­ one-way conversation suddenly doors opened.
