Support for parents with intellectual disabilities

In this project the partner institutions, with their specific expertise, will exchange new approaches and support for people with intellectual disabilities who have problems with parenting. The new ideas and insights will be used for exchange and application in the participating partner institutions. Staff members and teaching staff of this partnership will gather in seminars and taskforces, in order to work out new training models which will contribute in a better quality of support for the target group. In a first phase the partnership will collect data and basic information. In a second phase different taskforces in each country will work out specific aspects in the support for parents with intellectual disabilities from different perspectives. In a last phase, the partnership will organise a seminar in which an evaluation will be made of the collected information and insights of the different taskforces.

European Learning Partnership on easy-to-read and plain language

In many countries of the EU 25 % or more of the adult population cannot use written information effectively to cope in daily life. Everybody has the right to information on their own conditions. The use of plain or ‘easy-to-read’ language can help all people with reading or writing difficulties to become a full member of society. Since many years, in several countries of the EU exist ‘easy-to- read’ newspapers and/or ‘plain language centres’. In this project partners will form a learning partnership to exchange experience, practice and successful methods, make an inventory of the present situation and needs in the field of easy-to-read and plain language in the participating countries and carry out joint actions.

The result of this partnership must be a strong European network where partners can work together on o quality improvement, marketing-strategy and web-strategy for their newspapers; o a European easy-to-read newspaper on current affairs in the EC; o awareness campaigns on the need of easy-to-read or plain language in the EC; o plain language rewriting services and courses; o testing methods to evaluate rewritten texts; o an easy-to-read and plain language quality label; o and other...

MIDI-ART-EDUCATION

By art education of any kind, which is music, word art, (gymnastic) dance and visual art, the project aims to collaborate between some organisations of different European countries to exchange experiences and to work out common programs for teaching and active citizenship building. The main target groups are ethnic and other minority groups of every kind, disadvantaged people and disabled persons. By better integrating these target groups in our organisations we want to lower barriers to reach better acceptance and understanding in both directions, create possibilities for active citizenship and change pedagogical attitudes of the teachers. We are convinced that the personal expression has a good chance to be a key for reaching our aims. In a later stadium our experiences will be very helpful to work out anti prejudicing training programs for teachers that are not provided in pedagogical and didactical high school education for the moment. Through the project we also can create opportunities for our learners to become teachers themselves, apply for learning other subjects or integrate in the community in general and in organisations that promote chances for the target groups.

Let’s Go For It: Learning English to start going forward into intereuropean travel

The project aims at promoting language learning among adult learners by introducing them to attractive and up-to-date means of cross-border communication. The purpose is to break down resistance to e-learning particularly among senior citizens and reduce cultural prejudice by organising effective means of communication between the learners and members of staff of the institutions concerned. The project should develop the learners’ aptitude at self-learning as well as stimulate team work; it should lay the foundation of a group of friendly relations within the enlarged European framework.

MEET: Methods Experience Exchange Teachers

We have two meetings per year during the two years of the project. The teachers visit the partner institutions’ school and give lessons focusing on communication skills. During the lesson, they use the methods they use in their home countries with the topic of the country they come from. Afterwards teachers evaluate the lesson, discussing what worked well and what did not. After the visiting teachers leave, the hosting teacher evaluates the experience with his students. The results of this evaluation are sent to the partners via e-mail. We will record the lessons. We put all the lessons and the evaluations on a website.

Strategies Towards Active Citizenship ( STAC)

The STAC Project brings together various Programmes/Processes concerned with the dynamics of Active Citizenship in a European context. Each Partner shall develop a local project/process and shall report, in an agreed and structured way, on its different phases using ICT. The general aim is to develop, learn and disseminate practical pathways towards this goal. The Partners strongly share the view that this growing group of European Citizens can play an increasingly important role in society through their involvement in local and regional projects. Involvement has a positive impact on the well being and quality of life of the Older Citizen as well as in the general area of Social Capital. STAC will exchange expertise and good practice in relation to enrolment, retention monitoring, managing, and assessment and progression strategies. The dynamics of learning and teaching will benefit both partners and participants.

Grundtvig Active Parents Education (GRAPE) The project aims to develop a model (strategy) that could be used to help parents, who are in some way disadvantaged, improve the way in which they might be able to better understand developmental problems of their children, to help them improve their understanding of how the education system works, and thus enable them to take a more active part in the education of their children, so the children themselves could become more active in creating their own future within the European Community. Our project will further include a comparative evaluation with respect to similar studies and projects already carried out elsewhere in Europe. At the same time we will aim to exchange professional insights between different European partners with respect to their experience in the area of dealing with disadvantaged parents with respect to the above, and to establish a European network of professionals from various fields and institutions in social and educational environments in order to promote the issue of lifelong and life-wide education in relation to developing citizenship skills particularly of disadvantaged social groups. The project will focus on the following: - improving socially disadvantaged parents’ understanding of the educational system; - developing a positive and outgoing attitude with respect to co-operation with the school and the teachers; - giving them specific strategies for becoming more involved in the education of their children and thus enable them to overcome their sense of being socially excluded or in some way marginalized; - improving parent-child relationships in the sense of becoming more supportive towards their children in their educational struggles. The project will be developed in three stages. Stage 1: includes the following: identifying individual beneficiaries; sending out and collecting questionnaires; analysing the data gained through the questionnaires; finalising the interview procedures on the basis of the feed-back from questionnaires; overall evaluation of stage 1 Stage 2: conducting interviews; analysing data; developing two versions of a manual, one for professional workers, the other for beneficiaries Stage 3: trial run of the manual in the partnership and other European countries; final evaluation of the manual; final evaluation of the project, including a comparison of results with other similar projects; publication of the manual in respective national languages

MR. DAL (Methods to Retain Disadvantaged Adult Learners on learning programmes)

The project aims to identify the factors that enable disadvantaged adult learners to remain on learning programmes. Partner organisations will jointly develop a research framework and reporting methodology to identify key factors, trial and test them in a variety of settings and evaluate their effectiveness. The project targets adult learners from disadvantaged backgrounds, for example, people who have not completed their education, women experiencing disadvantage, those with mental health problems, learners who live in rural isolation, those experiencing social exclusion, people from ethnic minorities, older learners and single parents.

Each partner will establish a retention baseline at the start of the project. This will describe retention patterns within their own institution. Along with the baseline, the partners will describe strategies used within their own teaching practises to encourage adult learners to stay on course and also the factors that they believe adversely and positively affect retention.

Over the two year period, partners will exchange ideas and try out new strategies and tactics to improve their own organisation’s adult learner retention rates. The findings of the two year research project will be disseminated through publications, a summative conference for both tutors and learners, and web sites.

Year one activities will focus on the compilation of retention baselines and strategies. Year two will focus on the implementation and evaluation of strategies in partner organisations and dissemination of findings.

Holistic learning self-knowledge as a guideline from pre-vocational training into the labour market

This project will focus on a ‘personalised approach’, ensuring that diversity of learning styles are catered for, and equipping learners with required skills for employment in the 21st Century. Lifelong learning represents a key tool for adaptation of people on the dynamic job market. So, the aim is supporting lifelong learning as a common practice emphasising non-formal and informal training. Each partner will exchange experiences and methods in training courses ‘Learners: how to learn to learn’ and ‘Teachers/lectures: how to guide, support and teach’: training of lecturers in partner’s institution in order to use the experiences of learning and guiding processes for students with their own specific and special needs. In the background, a quality plays an important role: it is necessary and essential to keep in mind demands of quality in training and educational processes of learners. The objectives in this project are the following: - To gather partners’ different ways/methods of assessment of learning styles, guidance, advising and supporting students’ learning processes, e.g. to find individual learning styles and techniques - To exchange ways to bring out what and how to assess and guide students in their learning process - To use an Internet-based virtual system to exchange and gather the a.m. methods, techniques etc. - To provide training courses for teachers, trainers and guides concerning how to guide & support students towards a holistic self- knowledge and course for learner how to learn to learn - To benchmark good practices - To disseminate good practises and methods via project’s website and workshops

Efficient e-learning for adult with literacy problems: conditions and effects

In the “Lisbon strategy” (2000) ICT were identified as playing a key role in achieving higher growth, more and better jobs and greater scoial inclusion. E-learning is one of the ICT tools, and the last years there has been an increasing use of e-learning. Adults with literacy problems are one of the groups who might take advantage of using e-learning and ICT in education and every day life. Effective e-learning could be one step forward closing the “digital divide” and may help improving employability and adaptability to the job market, for adults with literacy problems. The partners in this project, who already provide e-learning, want to exchange experiences and good practice. The project will focus on ongoing experiences with e-learning for adults with literacy problems. We will share and disseminate good practice, how to make e-learning effective and easier for all kinds of adult learners as a way to give equal possibilities to everyone. We will make a framework for evaluation of the effect of e-learning for adults with literacy problems. The successful implementation of these new learning possibilities requires new literacy and e-learning competencies which are central challenges both world-wide and regionally.

METODA: Methodological Exchange between Trainers Of Disadvantaged Adults

We are six organisations from different European countries and we have different kinds of services, but we all have the same objective: to involve young adults who are marginalised in society into lifelong learning. We want to investigate, exchange and develop different methods how to engage young disadvantaged adults into learning activities and to keep them motivated for learning and for future projects of work. To achive this the Learning Partnership plans: o to exchange different pedagogical methodologies used in the various partner organisations o in particular to learn from each other about different methods of engaging and motivating into learning o to investigate the potential of peer learning and mentoring approaches o to develop and implement a transnational seminar to train trainers in the participating organisations in these methodologies o to apply these training methods in the partner organisations and evaluate their suitability for the respective target groups o to develop and implement a transnational seminar for learners of the participating institutions in which the acquired methodological knowledge is applied where the participants form all the countries involved can discuss and evaluate together the various methodologies they have experienced thorugh the project and can experience the European dimension.

Learning Partnership for the European Institute for Performing Arts

The objective of the project is to establish a learning partnership for a new and innovative European institute of performing arts. The tuition of the institute will focus on aesthetic subjects: theatre, dance, music, but with a multi-aesthetic and interdisciplinary approach. Through focus on artistic professionalism the project wants to enhance the learning process with personal development, the meeting of cultures and vocational/personal qualifications such as the willingness to adapt, commitment, attentiveness, mobility, tolerance, interpersonal skills, responsibility, creativity and entrepreneurial skills and problem-solving ability and other life competencies. The institute will be called Performers House, and will basically address young Europeans with creative abilities but without education. Through interaction between theory and practice, interaction with the research environment and an international network, the project will create a knowledge centre for aesthetic interdisciplinary learning processes. This will ensure development, documentation and the spreading of experience within the area. An international artistic and educational council will be connected to the institute with representatives from a wide European network. The council will meet once or twice annually and will be a steering body to the institute and help initiate activities. The European network will recruit students from non-formal education and make it possible to use experienced European teachers.

ELPN - European Learning Partnership Network. "Get together - learn together"

The idea of the project is to promote lifelong learning focusing on innovative teaching and learning methods. The project will explore the effect and efficiency of different ways of planning and practising training in terms of place, time, appearance and pedagogical methods. The target group is less educated adults who need to be motivated to continue life long to build up competencies, which can help them to keep up with the growing demands on the labour market or for unemployed to get a job. The project will try to find answers to questions like: Does the way of planning the education have an effect on whether students get their certification or drop out? Can e-learning be the answer to continue learning instead of dropping out? The partners represent a varity of institutions with very different experiences. Best practice examples to inspire trainers to deliver more qualified education and a living network of teachers, coaching groups and students groups in the partner countries will be some of the useful results. The project is planned as a two-year project. In the first year the partners plan to exchange practice and experience. In the second year the focus will be on transformation of ideas in different structures (groups, countries, subjects) and if possible we will experiment with various forms of flexible learning. This approach gives a new dimension to the idea of lifelong learning.

Innovative ways of reaching out

The purpose of the learning partnership is the experience on innovative ways to reach marginalized groups or such groups threatened by marginalisation and ensure the completion of the courses through pedagogical and educational strategies. These groups vary between regions, but they have certain traits in common: 1) difficulties in obtaining steady jobs, 2) they are disincline to participate in education voluntarily and 3) they are not affected by traditional methods of marketing education. The learning partnership is a transnational cooperation between different teaching institutions with a common wish to try to use untraditional ways of reaching these groups. Each institution has targeted a group that it will attempt to reach and engage through educational activities. The framework for the cooperation is: an internet conference with a common homepage. The coordinator is responsible for constructing and maintaining the site technically. Partners regularly exchange experiences on information material, marketing strategies etc. an annual conference (preceded by a preparatory meeting for key staff) in alternating countries to exchange experiences directly and strengthen the European dimension.

Nye indfaldsvinkler - Det vigtige kendskab

We mean that the differences between those taking part in this project shall be considered as strength. We will make new recognition and pedagogical products for our work with disabled adults. We will allow new thoughts and exchange experiences, and remove the acts and thoughts that appear from the habit in our culture, just as we shall create proper opportunities to realize the new pedagogical methods in each country. The partners have met at executive level the 1st year, where new approaches were in focus, by this we have obtained “the important knowledge” that aims at individual service to disabled persons and towards lifelong learning for all involved. A shared homepage is created for all material gathered. The second year the employees/learners have had an active role in preparing seminars for colleagues in the participating countries, they have worked with different subjects and made a coherent view of life with the focus on work situations, quality of life, understanding for disabilities and a social network. In the third year our residents (vulnerable people with mental and physical disabilities) are learners in lifelong learning together with their contact person in summer school in creative forms of expression and community.

Learning by doing

The project will develop good practice in education, training and guidance as a means of integrating migrants and others in the labour market. ‘Learning by Doing’ will identify the social skills, cultural understanding and communication codes used in various types of workplaces, and facilitate the transformation of this knowledge into good guidance, teaching and training practices. The project will also identify methods to help learners find jobs in the countries they live in, as well as to improve the teaching process in the field of practical use of learned skills and knowledge. The project partners will exchange experiences in discovering the non-formal competencies of the target group and of making the target group aware of these competencies. Finally, the project will attempt to influence policy in the private and public labour market, so they become more receptive to ethnic minorities and to people with special educational needs .

Ways from Exclusion to Inclusion as an Active European Citizen We are five partners from five different European countries sharing a common idea: A project for our learners: excluded groups of citizens, threatened by marginalization of different reasons (immigrants, refugees, young unemployed, workers, Muslims, disabled). We intend through various activities: o to open the local community for the excluded by visits in organisations etc. o to present for the majority group the personal and cultural strengths of the excluded group through exhibitions or meetings, presented by the project group, o and to give common experiences to the (former) excluded minority and the majority in the local society. The project will work on the inclusion of the learners as active citizens in different ways in the five countries, according to the target group and the conditions of the organisation.(see C.1.3) The project will include corporation with various local organisations and groups of people, and we want to utilize the resources in the partnership. This will be done by continuous interaction between the partners by exchanging innovative methods and examples of good practice. The medias for performance and dissemination in the local community shall be for instance photo, video, drawings, drama, lectures, and exhibitions. The continuous interaction between the local participants and partners is secured o through dialogue between staff, teachers and learners in a frame of activities such as meetings, courses, and supervision for learners o through IT correspondence with the partners, and o through personal meetings of learners and staff from the five partner groups in seminars in the countries. The dissemination of the project will be both on the local, the national, and the European level.

"The Path/ Der Pfad" - Erfahrungsaustausch über die methodische Entwicklung und Umsetzung von Konzepten für thematische Lernpfade

Die Idee der neuen Lernpartnerschaft beruht auf der gemeinsamen Spezifik von strukturschwachen ländlichen Regionen der LP- Mitglieder und der Entwicklung von Bildungsangeboten für Bewohner und Gäste. Hinter der Idee der Lernpfade verbirgt sich ein realer Weg (Wander-, Radweg, Straße) zu bestimmten Themen, wie Kultur, Religion, Gesunde Ernährung, Technik etc. In der Uckermark bietet sich hierfür das generationsübergreifende Lernthema „Erneuerbare Energien“ für einen solchen Lernpfad an. Lehrende und Lernende beschäftigen sich mit der Energieerzeugung von Gestern und Heute, entwickeln Methoden zur Heranführung von Bewohnern und Gästen unterschiedlicher Altersgruppen an das Thema, Betreiber der Anlagen werden in die Arbeit einbezogen. Die Erfahrungen sind abstrahierbar, unter konkreten thematischen Ansätzen und Bedingungen der beteiligten Regionen nachnutzbar. Lernende werden motiviert und sensibilisiert sich mit ihrem Umfeld auseinander zu setzen. Durch den transnationalen Aspekt der LP erhalten sie Einblicke in andere Länder und Kulturen. Dies fordert Auseinandersetzung mit dem europäischen Gedanken, erhöht die interkulturelle Kompetenz. Das Thema zeigt Lernenden Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten auf. Lehrende setzen sich mit anderen Lehrmethoden auseinander, wobei transnationale Erfahrungen der Partner der LP einfließen. An konkreten Standorten werden didaktisch-methodische Konzepte zur altersgruppengerechten Besucherbetreuung entwickelt. Die Arbeit der LP wird durch Erstellung und Pflege einer Webseite unterstützt. Darauf werden Lernpfade der einzelnen Länder gezeigt. Im Ergebnis der Arbeiten entsteht eine zusammenfassende Projektbroschüre.

"Lernen für's Leben - Learn for Life"

Das Verhältnis zum lebenslangen, eigenverantwortlichen Lernen wird beim Übergang ins Erwachsenenleben wesentlich geprägt. Sozial benachteiligte junge Erwachsene sind durch fehlenden Zugang zum Lernen und andere Gründe in ihren Entwicklungschancen eingeschränkt und zunehmend von gesellschaftlicher Ausgrenzung bedroht. Ziel der Lernpartnerschaft ist ein europäischer Erfahrungsaustausch unter Praktikern der Erwachsenenbildung über erfolgreiche Lernstrategien und -praktiken zur sozialen Integration dieser Zielgruppe in städtischen sozialen Brennpunkten. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei das informelle Lernen im sozialen Umfeld. Themen des auf 3 Jahre angelegten Erfahrungsaustausches sind u.a. Motivation für informelles Lernen; interessen- und praxisbezogenes Lernen; Dokumentation informell erworbener Kompetenzen; Modularisierung Zugangsmöglichkeiten; Unterstützungsstrukturen; Anreizsysteme; Vernetzung; Lernberatung; Verknüpfung von Lernformen zur Förderung persönlicher Entfaltung, aktiver Staatsbürgerschaft, sozialer Integration sowie Entwicklung von Beschäftigungsfähigkeit junger Erwachsener. Bestimmte Benachteiligtengruppen finden besondere Berücksichtigung (z.B. junge Erwachsene mit Migrationshintergrund, alleinerziehende junge Mütter, Bildungsabbrecher, junge Langzeitarbeitslose). Der Erfahrungsaustausch findet unter Einbeziehung von Lernenden bei den Lernpartnern vor Ort statt. Die Einbeziehung von Vertretern aus Politik und Öffentlichkeit in den trans-nationalen Erfahrungsaustausch soll diese für die Erwachsenenbildung sensibilisieren, um verbesserte Lernbedingungen für sozial benachteiligte junge Erwachsene in den beteiligten Regionen zu schaffen. Der Erfahrungsaustausch wird durch eine Website und Webdiskussionen unterstützt. Die Ergebnisse werden dokumentiert.

Zivilgesellschaft in Europa - Voneinander lernen, gemeinsam handeln

Bei dem Projekt handelt es sich um eine Kooperation zwischen gemeinnützigen Einrichtungen aus 8 Ländern, die in verschiedenen Feldern der Erwachsenenbildung tätig sind: sie arbeiten mit Behinderten, in räumlich benachteiligten Regionen, in den Bereichen Gender und der interkulturellen Erziehung. Ziel des Projektes ist es, auf verschiedenen Ebenen voneinander zu lernen: 1.Kennenlernen der anderen Organisationen mit ihren Methoden und Arbeitsweisen 2.Sensibilisierung im Hinblick auf die jeweils von der eigenen Einrichtung nicht abgedeckten Bereiche. Der vielschichtige Lernprozess vollzieht sich durch "aktives Lernen“ im Rahmen von Projekttreffen in jedem Land: 1. Die Empfangsorganisation stellt ihre tägliche Bildungsarbeit vor. In Kleingruppen sollen die Lernenden der anderen Länder möglichst konkret die typischen Arbeitsfelder der Organisation kennenlernen. Im Vorfeld können zudem an den Gastgeber spezielle Programmwünsche abgegeben werden, z.B. „Wie wird Fundraising in einem diesbezüglich relativ erfahrenen Land wie GB organisiert?“ 2. Gemeinsame Diskussion und Reflektion über das Erlebte. Wo bestehen Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten? Inwiefern hat sich unser Erfahrungsschatz erweitert und zwar: a) in Bezug auf meinen persönlichen Horizont? b) Kann ich das Erlebte für meine nationale Bildungsarbeit nutzen, eventuell Methoden übernehmen oder Arbeitsweisen verändern? Zwischen den Projekttreffen wird der Lernprozess mit Hilfe von Fragenkatalogen evaluiert und dokumentiert. Neben der Integration von Methoden anderer Bereichen in die eigene Arbeit ist ein weiteres Ziel die Entwicklung innovativer Projekte, die einige der vier Bereiche miteinander kombinieren (z.B. ein interkultureller Austausch zwischen 2 Behindertenorganisationen).

INBE — Integration by Education — The Influence of Learners on the Integrating Educational Programme

Lingual, economic and social isolation determines the life of immigrants. Integrating educational programmes trying to overcome this isolation are designed according to concepts, needs and (at last financial) possibilities of the host communities. Depending on these programmes offered immigrants seem to be confined to a mostly passive role and a wait-and-see-attitude from the start. Low expectations and identification diminish the success of the programmes, at least a part of the effort is given away. Six European institutions of special integrative expertise and expertise within adult education want to analyse and to evaluate the actual situation concerning the design of integrating programs in the partner countries. Do learners have any influence on contents and methods of the programmes? Are there already approaches to improve this situation? The aim of the project is to explore together ways to examine and to identify actual training needs of immigrants and to find out how we can enhance the designing influence of learners on their integrating educational program. We want to learn from each other how to improve the designing influence of immigrants by exchanging experiences and good practice. Project activities consist of visits and meetings by partner institutions, project work with the learners and staff, culminating in an international workshop. Immigrant learners take part in every phase of the project.

CLAY- Cooperative Learning by Ambiental Activity

The aim of the CLAY-project is that all participating partners examine some of their regional and global problems, exchange information and ideas and disseminate their results in order to learn from one another and to create a sense of awareness which will lead to a different attitude towards environmental issues. In addition, CLAY will promote the partners examining traditional and long established methods of dealing with everyday problems and altering their habits by applying newer technologies and modern approaches. It is not the aim of the project to solve these problems but to expose them and to learn from the endeavours of the partners to solve them. The long-term aim is also to hold courses at schools and institutions of adult education in order to interest people in environmental issues and to promote changes in their attitude. These changes should include the use of modern technologies as well as the re-use of historic but effective methods. Hence the name of the project CLAY: Cooperative Learning by Ambient Activity.

Competencies in Marketing for Trainers in Continuing Education (CMCE)

Die tatsächliche Entwicklung der überregionalen europäischen Kooperationen im Bereich der Weiterbildung bleibt weit hinter den neuen Herausforderungen und der gewünschten Kooperationskultur zurück. Eine europäische Zusammenarbeit von Bildungsanbietern erfolgt bisher lediglich in Einzelfällen. Der Weiterbildungsmarkt hat sich verändert. Das Marketing wird für kommerzielle und nichtkommerzielle Institutionen zu der wichtigsten Quelle des Unternehmenserfolgs. Um sich professionell auf dem Markt zu behaupten müssen auch Bildungsanbieter ihr Know-how an neue Marketing-Konzepte anpassen. Kleinere Anbieter sollten sich darauf vorbereiten, dass unter dem Zeichen der Globalisierung auch eine Internationalisierung der Weiterbildungsträger bevorsteht. Das Projekt will die Marketingpraxis kleiner europäischer Weiterbildungsanbieter erfassen und optimieren und eine neue europäische und transnationale Kooperationsform im Bereich der Marketingstrategien initiieren. Damit sollen deren Planungskompetenz sowie die Effizienz und die Transparenz ihrer Unternehmensführung für den regionalen, nationalen und europäischen Markt verbessert werden. Die teilnehmenden Organisa-ionen und deren Lehrende / Beschäftigte - lernen im Sinne des dialogischen Lernens voneinander in der Vermarktung ihres eigenen Angebots, - erhalten die Möglichkeit, ein klares Bild nach außen (Werbung, Akquisition, Medienauftritte, Webseite) zu entwickeln, - erhalten Zugangsmöglichkeiten zu europäischen Projekten und Aufträgen und verbessern die Qualität ihrer Arbeit Das Projekt soll sich im 2. Jahr auf folgende Schwer-punktthemen konzentrieren: 1. Self- Marketing, 2. Exchange of Marketing- experiences between public and private sectors on the European Market, 3. Best practice.

GILE- Generationsübergreifendes inter-kulturelles Lernen in Europa

Der biographische Ansatz in der Erwachsenenbildung kann den Prozess lebenslangen Lernens effektiv unterstützen. Er fördert das gegenseitige Verständnis individueller Erfahrungen, Probleme und Motivationen. Besonders produktiv kann die biographische Methode in gemeinsamen Lernprozessen von Teilnehmenden mit unterschiedlichen persönlichen Erfahrungen, Altersstufen und beruflichen Zusammenhängen sein, vor allem dann, wenn die Teilnehmenden unterschiedlichen Generationen und unterschiedlichen Nationalitäten angehören. Ziel des beabsichtigten Projektes ist es, diesen Bildungsansatz in gemeinsamer Arbeit von Bildungseinrichtungen verschiedener europäischer Länder weiter zu entwickeln und damit neue Zugänge, Lehrpläne und Methoden für das lebenslange Lernen zwischen Generationen, in internationalen Lerngruppen und Lernprojekten zu erarbeiten. Dabei stehen der Austausch individueller Perspektiven, die Wissensvermittlung über aktuelle soziale Veränderungen und europäische Entwicklungen im Vordergrund. Mit dem Projekt soll zugleich ein konkreter Beitrag zur Integration der mittel- und osteuropäischen Beitrittsländer/Beitrittskandidaten geleistet werden. Das Projekt sieht vor: - Internationale generationenübergreifende Lernseminare zu projektieren, durchzuführen und zu evaluieren ; - Experten/Lehrer für entsprechende europäische Ausbildungsprojekte im Rahmen einer Zusatzqualifikation auszubilden; - die Erfahrungen in gemeinsamen Seminaren/Konferenzen auszutauschen und in internationale Lernprozesse einzubinden, sowie - die weitere Anwendung in unterschiedlichen regionalen Bildungszusammenhängen der beteiligten Partner vorzubereiten.Das Projekt will insbesondere ältere Personen und Jugendliche integrieren. - die Erarbeitung einer mehrsprachigen pädagogischen Arbeitshilfe

Encourage LLL - employability for senior citizens

Under the habit to "prolong active citizenship" we understand learning from one another, reflecting own habits and experiences, learning to learn, enhancing motivation and active participation of learners, understanding other cultures and countries, intergenerational contacts, making new friends. For people aged 50 and over the working world may appear to be closed. At this stage in life it is often assumed that one has reached the stage of un-employability. At the same time children leave home and people are faced with the possibility or necessity to re-structure or even change their jobs or working patterns. It is possible to identify a trend of lacking expertise in companies. This phenomeneon has led to the first attempts to bring older people back to work. There is a growing need throughout Europe to provide opportunities for people over 50 to use their learning and life skills in a range of socially valuable contexts. The project intends to increase the capacity of senior citizens for active citicenship and their way back to working context by improving their cultural awareness, by increasing their employab., by upgrading their gen. skills. In workshops carried through in the particip. countries they will be trained in different packs, to learn from one another, to exchange and to pass special examples of good practice in order to transfer them into their own institutional and learning contexts

EduPART. Educational Partnership activates families.

Das Projekt zielt auf die Entwicklung einer Lernpartnerschaft zwischen insgesamt 5 Einrichtungen aus Deutschland, Litauen, Polen und Österreich. Inhaltlich konzentriert sich der Austausch auf den Bereich der Eltern- und Familienbildung als einer wichtigen Dimension der Erwachsenenbildung. Es soll dabei zunächst die Gestaltung der Erziehung in der Spannung zwischen familialen und beruflichen Anforderungen erörtert werden. Die Umsetzung erfolgt im Rahmen eines strukturierten und ergebnisorientierten Austausches zwischen den Einrichtungen. Im Rahmen von zwei internationalen Familienkonferenzen realisiert sich (1) der Austausch über die soziale Situation von Eltern und deren Familien in den jeweiligen Ländern als lebensweltlicher Kontext der Elternbildung in den Partnereinrichtungen; (2) der Austausch über die Praxis und Erfahrungen in Bezug auf Elternbildung; (3) die Wahrnehmung von sozialen Differenzen und Mentalitätsunterschieden in den jeweiligen Ländern und (4) der Austausch bzw. die Reflexion über deren Bedeutung für die jeweilige Praxis der Elternbildung. Die genannten Dimensionen des Austausches sollen dazu beitragen, eine tragfähige und effiziente Arbeitsbasis zu erarbeiten, auf der die teilnehmenden Einrichtungen evtl. gemeinsam Strategien der Elternbildung entwickeln, insbesondere für solche Eltern, die sich mittels der herkömmlichen Orte und Methoden der Erwachsenbildung nicht oder nur schwer motivieren lassen, an Bildungsangeboten teilzunehmen. Der aktivierenden Elternarbeit kommt hier eine zentrale Funktion zu, die sich auch im Titel des Lernprojekts ausdrückt. Der Austausch von Lehrenden soll den Erfahrungs- und Wissentransfer realisieren helfen und eventuell den Ausbau der notwendigen Strukturen vor Ort fördern.

Strategic Perspectives for Providers in Adult Education (SPPAE)

Strategische Perspektiven für Akteure in der Erwachsenenbildung. "Wer und was wollen wir sein in einem Europa des Wissens?" Diese Zukunftsfrage nach Vision und Leitbild steht am Anfang der Strategieentwicklung für eine Partnerschaft bestehend aus Erwachsenenbildungsorganisationen mit unterschiedlichem Profil. Innovative Akteure erkennen, dass sie ihre Existenz längerfristig nur mit Blick auf die gemeinsamen europäischen Problemstellungen hinaus sichern können. Der Wettbewerb und die Konkurrenz werden härter. Um weiterhin wettbewerbsfähig bleiben zu können muss die Erwachsenenbildung auf den Einspartrend bei den öffentlichen und privaten Geldgebern reagieren: Kernangebote ändern, Angebote entwickeln, die einen Markt finden. Jede Organisation hat eine Strategie und agiert im täglichen Geschäft nach spezifischen Grundüberzeugungen. Häufig ist die Strategie eher intuitiv, die strate-gischen Vorstellungen über das was die Auftraggeber, die Lernenden und die Zukunft wollen, bleiben unausgesprochen. In dem Projekt empfehlen sich für die strategische Analyse und den Blick in die Zukunft die Stakeholder-Analyse und die Szenario-Methode. Hauptthemen des Projekts sind: aktuelle und zukünftige Bedürfnisse der Lernenden, Markt und Angebote, Ressourcen, Stärken und Schwächen und die Analyse der europäischen Wettbewerbs- und Branchenlogik. Die Stakeholder-Analyse kann hier die sozialen Beziehungsgeflechte zwischen den Bildungsakteuren und den relevanten Interessengruppen erfassen. Die Zukunftsschancen der Organisationen hängen davon ab, wie sie im Erfahrungsaustausch von ihren europäischen Partnern lernen und zu einem gezielten und fortlaufenden Strategieentwicklungsprozess finden.

PAP-Prejudice as a Path

This project explores the cultural and emotional differences that create the barriers for a better acceptance and intercultural understanding. It aims at promoting the idea of European citizenship according to the motto of the European Constitution “unity in diversity”. We will start by confronting the participants/ learners with their own prejudice and those of others. This will be done through workshops with the learners in each partner organisations. The participants will subsequently initiate learning processes at a national and transnational level. We have to take into account that prejudice might be difficult to overcome but it can also be used as a positive tool for mutual understanding and respect. Finding the common ground of European culture will open learner´s minds to accept diversity and view it as an enrichment of their own individual horizon. This will establish innovative methods emerging from the different cultures and an awareness of one´s own identity. It will involve teachers and students alike. The aim is to empower individuals to influence their own situation through better understanding of their own and others´ cultural background. A collective approach to this issue will enhance effectiveness, efficiency and innovation. The exchange of information, ideas and expertise between transnational project partners will take place during seminars and visits in order to : - Deepen the awareness of own cultural identity, - Develop and share methods of how to cope with and understand the reasons behind prejudice and xenophobia, - Actively involve learners; - Take the step from prejudice, to discovery, to curiosity, to reflection; - Identify alternative solutions or approaches; - Adapt pedagogical approaches to situations in each member state.

Gender meets Reality

The partners of the Learning Partnership RealGeM compare their experiences and methods of their respective activities and working fields to implement Gender Mainstreaming. The different experiences and practices of the partner organisations will be compared, integrated and assessed in terms of transferability, in order to facilitate a trans-national and trans-sectoral learning process. More detailed, this learning process contains several elements: Two steps are in the centre of the first year which are: (1) A discussion of the role of Gender Mainstreaming in the profile of tasks/in the self-conception of bodies and institutions in the above mentioned areas for conceptual educational work and (2) An identification of aspects, demands, and themes in connection with Gender Mainstreaming that are characteristic for the above mentioned areas, with the focus on educational practice. The Learning Partnerships work of the second year will concentrate on the opening of new areas for Gender Mainstreaming which build a potential transition between general adult education, the consolidation of daily life knowledge and professional knowledge, e.g. tackling consumers policy and participation and future-oriented governance strategies taking into account the perspective of gender equality. In summary, RealGeM in its second year continues to orientate on different policy fields with their demands on participation and gender equality mentioned in the general policy of the European Union, representative is for example Art. 3 of the Treaty of Amsterdam.

MAESTRO - Multipliers in Adult Education - Structures and Organisation

In diesem Projekt soll es darum gehen, Erwachsenenbildung an sogenannten „anderen Lernorten“ zu stärken. Es werden jeweils eine Einrichtung der Erwachsenenbildung mit einem regionalen Museum zusammen arbeiten, um gemeinsam mit den Fachleuten des Museums Module zu entwickeln, die für „Lerneinheiten im Museum“ oder zur Unterstützung der Erarbeitung historischer, künstlerischer und kultureller Themen geeignet sind. Es sollen in dieser Zusammenarbeit gemeinsame Konzeptionen erstellt werden, die mit den europäischen Partnern ausgetauscht werden sollen und die ggf. auch zu einem Material bzw. Personalaustausch führen können. Zusätzlich soll begleitend zu dieser Lernpartnerschaft ein Grundtvig 1 Projekt beantragt werden, in dem es darum gehen soll, Kompetenzen zu entwickeln und zu schulen, die gerade in diesem Schnittbereich Bildung / Kultur wichtig sind. Geplant ist ein kleiner „Lehrreicher Museumsführer“, der es Einzelpersonen, Gruppen oder auch Seminarteilnehmern ermöglicht, Ausstellungen unter solchen Aspekten zu erkunden, die bewusst in Frage gestellt, problematisiert, reflektiert, in einen größeren Kontext eingebracht etc. werden.

New Approaches to Nutritional Education in Museums

Nutrition-related disorders are on the increase throughout Europe. The controversial discussion about what constitutes ‘proper’ nutrition underlines the need for up-to-date nutritional education in place of the insufficiently effective classical nutritional education, particularly for adults. What is more, the food sector is also subject to increasing global uniformity, associated with a loss of diversity. Since nutrition is closely related to traditions and lifestyles, museums – as places of historical and social reflection and of aesthetic perception – can combine these two aspects. By offering sense and taste-training sessions and events that emphasise the enjoyment of food and regional specialities, these extra-mural places of learning can play an important role in the development of responsible eating habits. Furthermore activities on local food products can be an important chance to point out scientific topics such as genetically modified food and biodiversity. The project is intended to discuss these challenges by promoting an exchange of experience between museums and scientific institutions, in order to improve the partners’ practice-oriented programmes. The partners will bring in different approaches to the subject and a variety of cultural backgrounds. Discussion of these will provide the museums’ educational staff with new ideas for nutritional education, emphasising regional and cultural peculiarities and facilitating inter-cultural dialogue. The target groups are people with disabilities, senior citizens and other sections of the population who are not usually accessed through mainstream educational institutions and - for various social reasons - can't receive an adequate nutritional education in their families or peer groups.

Möglichkeiten der gesellschaftlichen Integration bei kulturellen und religiösen Unterschieden

Angesichts der gegenwärtig aktuellen Entwicklungen (11. September, Situation in den Niederlanden), der Fundamentalismusproblematik sowie der Entwicklung von Parallel-gesellschaften kommt der Religion / den Religionen für das Zusammenleben von Men-schen unterschiedlicher ethnischer Herkunft und Religion in den einzelnen Nationen und im Kontext der Diskussion um kulturelles Zusammenleben bzw. der Integration verschie-dener Kulturen und Religionsformen in einem Staat im Moment und auf Zukunft eine hohe Bedeutung zu. Das Lernpartnerschaftsprojekt will - angesichts kultureller und religiöser Unterschiede (möglichen interreligiösen Konflikten) in den einzelnen Ländern - die Rolle und Bedeutung sowie die Wirkungen von Religion auf die politischen und gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen, z.B: Wahl der Lebensformen, Regeln des Zusammen-lebens, Bildungsvorstellungen, Geschlechterrollen (Genderfrage), untersuchen. Der Schwerpunkt des Projekt liegt auf dem Austausch über die Wahrnehmung und von Ansätzen sowie Konzepten der Integration in den beteiligten Ländern und Partner-einrichtungen und insbesondere darauf, welchen Beitrag und welche Unterstützung Bildungsarbeit (Ansätze und Konzepte) zu für eine gelingende Integrationsarbeit für die jeweiligen Zielgruppen leisten kann, eine Integration, die die Ausbildung von sog. Parallelgesellschaften zu verhindern hilft. Ziel der Lernpartnerschaft ist die Ermöglichung eines Austausches zwischen Angehörigen unterschiedlicher Kulturen und Religionen, um gegenseitige Vorurteile abzubauen und eine Verständigung über Integrationsansätze und erprobte Konzepte von Integrationsarbeit in der Bildungsarbeit.

Einsatz von drama-techniques in der Erwachsenenbildung

Das Projekt dient dem gemeinsamen Lernen bei der Umsetzung von Theater und Spiel (drama-techniques) als soziale Lernform und sinnvolle Freizeitbeschäftigung junger Erwachsener. Veränderungen im Leben in der Gesellschaft verlangen Antworten darauf, welche Kompetenzen zu entwickeln sind und wie der Lernweg drama-techniques das unterstützt. Lehrende sollen Grundlagen der drama-techniques so verstehen, dass sie als Methode bei Projekten eingesetzt werden können. Ergebnisse eigener Arbeit werden überprüft und neue Ideen für die eigene Arbeit entwickelt. Es sollen u.a. Freude am Spielen, Darstellen und Präsentieren gefördert; Kommunikation und Konfliktbewältigung erprobt/bewältigt; Hemmungen überwunden, Toleranz u. Rücksichtnahme stärker ausgeprägt werden. Die Partner sind Einrichtungen, an denen junge Erwachsene lernen und tätig sind und kompetente Nutzer von drama-techniques. An den Einrichtungen sind unter den jungen Erwachsenen z.T. Migranten. Aktivitäten konzentrieren sich auf das Realisieren einer gelungenen Aufführung der jungen Menschen zu einem selbstge-wählten Thema mit transnationaler Bedeutung. Der Erfolg wird durch mehrere Treffen und rege Nutzung des Internets durch alle Beteiligten gesichert. Hauptergebnis: Antwort zu folgenden Themen: - Stellenwert der drama-techniques in den Partnerländern - Erfahrungen hinsichtlich Motivation und Sicherung des Bildungszieles bei kleineren Rollenspielen und beim Tanztheater - Wie überwindet man Scheu, sich in einer Gruppe im Spiel zu betätigen? - Bewährte Methoden und Techniken - Wie wird die Qualität des Prozesses des Miteinanderarbeitens gesichert? - Welche Qualifizierung brauchen Lehrende? - Welche erprobten Ergebnisse sind hinsichtlich des Verständnisses für kulturelle Unterschiede übertragbar?

Learning is it!

There are three aspects to look at the problem of rising rates of young unemployed people. 1. They have not enough knowledge and competences. 2. They lost their motivations. 3. There are too less perspectives for them for life and work. What do the societies do, to solve this problem? What is successful? And why? Aims of the Learning partnership are: - to find out how to promote learning competences - how to rise motivation and - how to give perspectives in job and life for this people. One way might be to show the competences the people have got formaly and informally. The chance is to support the strength, which the young people have and to power their belief in themselves. During the project the partners find out criterias to value the activities and results and they will benchmark the instruments and methods of motivation and finding job-perspectives. In the end there will be (on web-site, CD and paper) - a benchmark-system to value and compare activities and their results (to use for controlling and quality management and to support the work of teachers and coaches of young adult learners) - a list of good-practice of motivating young people for learning - a short description of the situation in the participating countries especially the perspectives of young job-seekers and consequences for the work.

Dieses Projekt greift den Bedarf an (nachholenden) Intergrationsangeboten für viele bereits in Deutschland, in Österreich und in den Niederlanden lebenden Frauen mit Migrationshintergrund auf. Im Vordergrund steht die Entwicklung, Erprobung und Verbreitung von Modulen für Frauen mit Migrationshintergrund und/ oder sozio-kulturellen Randgruppen. Zum einen werden sich die regionalen Organisationen, die mit Migrantinnen arbeiten, untereinander vernetzen und sichtbar gemacht werden. Mit diesen regionalen Organisationen sollen Strategien zur Erreichbarkeit der Frauen mit Migrationshintergrund entwickelt werden um anschließend nach einer Bedarfsanalyse entsprechende (nachholende) Integrationsangebote in Form von Modulen der Erwachsenenbildung zu erproben. Die Frauen sollen durch Module der Erwachsenenbildung in ihrem Selbst- und Fremdbild als qualifizierte und anerkannte Individuen in den Gesellschaften gestärkt werden. Diese Module werden unter den Projektländern ausgetauscht, ausgewertet und veröffentlicht.

KoDI Kooperativer Dialog

Das Projekt zur Förderung eines "kooperativen Dialogs" wird beantragt, weil mehrere Projektpartner in den letzten Jahren in ihren Einrichtungen festgestellt haben, dass es Defizite in der Dialog- und Kommunikationsfähigkeit von Gesprächspartnern gibt. Dabei handelt es sich sowhl um den Dialog zwischen Eltern und Lehrern, zwischen Auszubildenden/Arbeitnehmern und Arbeitgebern als auch zwischen Antragstellern und Verwaltungsbeamten in verschiedenen öffentlichen oder privaten Einrichtungen. In vielen Fällen kommt es zu Mißverständnissen, zu Fehlverhalten, zu Informationsdefiziten und dadurch zu falschen Entwicklungen und Entscheidungen, weil Gesprächspartner nicht (mehr) in der Lage sind, miteinander einen kooperativen Dialog zu führen, was meint, sachlich, symmetrisch und ergebnisoffen miteinander in einen Kommunikationsprozess einzutreten und die Fähigkeit zu entwickeln, diesen Prozess auch zu gestalten und in Gang zu halten. Das Projekt hat zum Ziel, Strategien zu entwickeln, zwischen den Partnern auszutauschen und zu erproben, die dazu dienen, einen solchen "kooperativen Dialog" zu initiieren, zu intensivieren und für positive Entwicklungen im gesellschaftlichen Miteinander zu nutzen. So lange es Berührungsängste, Vorbehalte, Gesprächsunfähigkeit, Fehleinschätzungen, Schuldzuweisungen und Problemverlagerungen gibt, kann ein solcher "kooperativer Dialog" nicht gelingen. Module zu entwickeln und Spielregeln zu erarbeiten, die den Einstieg erleichtern können, ist Ziel dieser Lernpartnerschaft.

Further Education of Sign Language Teachers

For about 400,000 Deaf people in Europe sign language is the principle means of communication. To improve or minimize communication barriers between the deaf and hearing world, sign language courses have been implemented and deaf people across Europe have encouraged hearing people (especially parents of deaf children, teachers and colleagues of the deaf) to attend these courses and learn sign language. In fact, the acquisition of a sign language has gained much in popularity and in many European countries the enrolement in sign language classes is currently booming.

To satisfy the requirements for an adequate supply of high quality sign language courses, teaching curricula have been developed in several member states and many deaf teachers have attended training courses in sign-language teaching at adult educationion centers and colleges. Although this is a big step forward, the developed course curricula are diverse in form and content and very often they offer a different assortment of educational tools and support services.

The aim of the learning partnership is therefore a transnational evaluation and exchange about existing sign language teaching courses, i.e. curricula and innovative classroom materials, and the situation and further education of sign language teachers. National concepts shall be introduced, compared and analysed during different workshops, in order to gain knowledge about the participating institutions, of their methods of working, their curricula and educational tools. In the long run the learning partnership might result in an improvement of sign language teaching courses at adult education centers and colleges.

Was ist denn bloß mit unseren Kindern los? Erarbeiten eines neuen Verständnisses im Umgang mit den Kindern.

Auf einer breiten gesellschaftlichen Ebene wird immer wieder die Frage aufgeworfen, was mit unseren Kindern los ist. Sie sind einerseits reifer und sensibler, andererseits partiell unkonzentrierter und aggressiver. Viele Kinder fordern ihre Eltern, Lehrer und Erzieher heraus, neue Wege im Umgang mit ihnen zu suchen. Ratlosigkeit und Überforderung seitens der Lehrer, Erzieher und Eltern haben zu verstärkten Aktivitäten im Bereich der Familien-/Elternbildung geführt. In vielen europäischen Ländern wächst der Bedarf an Aufklärung, Beratung und Hilfe. Bestehende Bildungssysteme sind oft überfordert. Elterninitiativen und Elternbildung nehmen einen immer größeren Raum bei der Übernahme der Verantwortung für unsere Kinder ein. Die kleinste Zelle der Gesellschaft, die Familie, ist aufgefordert, mit Verantwortung zu übernehmen. In diesem Prozess entscheiden sich immer mehr Eltern ihrem Kind eine Ausbildung mit individueller pädagogischer Ausrichtung zukommen zu lassen. Statistiken zeigen, dass z.B. in Deutschland seit 1995 ca. ein Viertel mehr Kinder eine Alternativschule besuchen. Nicht jedem Kind ist dies möglich. Eltern suchen auch innerhalb bestehender Bildungseinrichtungen nach Lösungen. Dennoch fühlen sich viele Eltern überfordert. Es fehlt ihnen das Wissen, wie sie als Eltern ihr Kind komplementär begleiten können. Eltern sind bereit, gemeinsam mit Pädagogen stärker Verantwortung für die Entwicklung der Kinder zu übernehmen. Unsere Lernpartnerschaft setzt genau an diesem Punkt an. Die angestrebte Lernpartnerschaft hat sich die Aufgabe gestellt, Informationsmaterialien für Eltern auszuarbeiten, Wege der Elternbildung aufzuzeigen und im 2. Jahr einen inhaltlichen Kurs zur Elternbildung zu entwickeln, der seine Anwendung in den beteiligten Partnerländern finden soll.

Leben in Europa - Menschen mit schwerer geistiger und/oder mehrfacher Behinderung entdecken die Vielfalt Europas

Ziel dieser Lernpartnerschaft ist der Erfahrungsaustausch über Möglichkeiten der Erwachsenenbildung für Menschen mit schwerer geistiger und/oder mehrfacher Behinderung. Lernende aus Tagesstätten aus Spanien, Belgien, Griechenland und Deutschland bilden sich weiter anhand des Themas ‚Leben in Europa’. Sie erfahren die Vielfalt der Lebensmöglichkeiten in Europa wie z.B.: - Leben auf dem Lande oder in der Großstadt - Kultur und Kunst, Arbeit und Tätigsein - Geschichtliche Ursprünge und Zukunftsperspektiven Die behinderten Teilnehmenden können sich - ausgehend von ihren individuellen Fähigkeiten - dieses Thema mit allen Sinnen, mit innovativen, kreativen Methoden und mit Formen unterstützter Kommunikation erschließen. Die Partner informieren sich gegenseitig darüber hinaus über vorhandene Bildungs- und Arbeitsmöglichkeiten in den einzelnen Tagesstätten. Die beteiligten Fachkräfte erwerben durch das Projekt Kompetenzen für die Bildungsarbeit mit schwerer behinderten Menschen. Die eingesetzte Didaktik wird ausgewertet, gesammelt und einem größeren Interessentenkreis zugänglich gemacht.

Menschen mit schwerer (geistiger) Behinderung werden in ihren Bildungsmöglichkeiten benachteiligt, da es nur wenig Angebote für sie gibt und sie auf lebensbegleitende Unterstützung angewiesen sind. Die Forderung der EU nach Chancengleichheit für benachteiligte Personen, wie sie im Sokrates-Programmes beschrieben ist, setzen wir in die Tat um. Die politisch geforderte Teilhabe aller Bürgerinnen und Bürger an gesellschaftlichen Prozessen kann so der zunehmenden Ausgrenzung entgegenwirken.

QualiFLY – Quality in Family Literacy

Family Literacy represents an intergenerational and community learning approach – linking elements of adult education, parents’ education and pre-school or primary education – to enhance the literacy of both adults and children and support teachers and parents in preventing future drop-outs. While a few European countries have a long-standing experience with „Family Literacy“ programmes, most European countries have only little or no experience with the approach. The QualiFLY project aims at promoting „Family Literacy“, and especially promoting good quality in “Family Literacy” programmes by experiencing, observing and monitoring best practice in “Family Literacy” in a range of cultural settings through - the exchange of ideas and best practice between different European institutions running “Family Literacy” programmes or aiming to set up such a programme; - disseminating best practice through the creation of a “knowledge base” website; - reviewing monitoring and evaluation methods to identify quality indicators and promoting new approaches for effective programmes; - creating a core group of expertise in each partner country through the active involvement of tutors in the project; - doing advocacy work for the “Family Literacy” approach through the website of the partnership and the individual networks of each partner.

EQUAL CHANCES

Im Mittelpunkt der Arbeit steht der blinde oder sehbehinderte Mensch und seine Chancen in der Gesellschaft. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt der Lernpartnerschaft liegt hierbei auf der europaweiten Verbesserung der Integrationsfähigkeit für diese Menschen. Kern des Projektes ist die Organisation einer bisher nicht vorhandenen multilateralen Kooperation der Bildungseinrichtungen für blinde und sehbehinderte Menschen. Durch Austausch von Erfahrungen über praktische Erleichterungen im Alltag, barrierefreies Lernen und einen effektiven Wissensaustausch zwischen den beteiligten Bildungs-einrichtungen wird eine Brücke über die enormen Niveauunterschiede bezüglich technischer Ausstattung und Ausbildungsstandards der beteiligten Projektpartner gebaut. Unser Ziel ist die verbesserte gesellschaftliche Integration, die aktive Teilnahme an der Bürgergesellschaft und die Erfahrbarmachung der europäischen Integration, die Chancengleichheit in der Bildung und im Berufsleben für Blinde und Sehbehinderte. Die beteiligten Schulen haben sich in dem EU Projekt GD EAC Nr. 55/03 "European Conferences for Equal Chances and Social Integration and against the Discrimination of Disabled People" kennengelernt. Dabei wurde deutlich, dass ein großes Interesse an einer vertiefenden Zusammenarbeit besteht. Im Mittelpunkt dieser Lernpartnerschaft steht daher nun der Erfahrungsaustausch über die didaktische Grundlagen und Methodik im Bereich Blinden- und Sehbehindertenbildung, mit Schwerpunkten in den Bereichen IT und Kunst. Dies geschieht auf 3 Konferenzen und der Möglichkeit für Lernende und Lehrende, an einem Austauschprogramm teilzunehmen. Ein weiteres Mittel ist die Einrichtung eines Internet Forums zum Erfahrungs- und Best Practiceaustausch für Schüler und Lehrer der beteilten Bildungseinrichtungen.

Weiterbildungskonzepte für pädagogische Professionals

Die Weiterbildung pädagogischer Professionals stellt in allen EU-Staaten eine besondere Herausforderung dar. Pädagogische Professionals verfügen über implizite und explizite Theorien ihres beruflichen Handelns und beanspruchen als Lehrende Kompetenz bei der Unterstützung von Lernprozessen. Dies gilt es für pädagogische Weiterbildungskonzepte zu beachten. Das lange Zeit vorherrschende normative Verständnis in Weiterbildungskonzepten, Lehrenden immer neue "bessere" Lehrkonzepte anbieten zu wollen, hat sich als ungeeignet erwiesen, denn Lernanforderungen in Fortbildungsmaßnahmen führen nicht automatisch zu Veränderungen in der Praxis. Untersuchungen belegen, dass Weiterbildungsprozesse an den identitätsrelevanten Stellen einsetzen müssen, dort wo die Lehrenden ihr praktisches Handeln problematisch empfinden. Die Aufgabe einer gemeinsamen Qualitätsentwicklung und Professionalisierung der Weiterbildung steht über Ländergrenzen hinweg im europäischen Raum an. Die Notwendigkeit einer verbesserten/effektiveren Fort- und Weiterbildung pädagogischer Professionals ist umso dringlicher, je mehr die Anforderung besteht, Bildungseinrichtungen zu innovieren und in ihren Qualitätsstandards weiterzuentwickeln sowie die Erwartungen der Lernenden an individuelle Lernbegleitung (im Zuge gesellschaftlicher Individualisierungsprozesse) zu erfüllen. Dieses Ziel soll durch die Nutzung der vielfältigen nationalen Ansätze und verschiedenen Weiterbildungskulturen unterstützt werden. Die Qualität der Fort- und Weiterbildung pädagogischer Professionals soll mittels einer grenzübergreifenden Lerngemeinschaft verbessert werden.

CHAT – Communication Harmoniously Agreed Together

The purpose of this project as a learning partnership is the transnational exchange of ideas and practice in the field of non-violent communication between institutions whose target groups are socially disadvantaged young people who are unemployed and at the risk of further social descent. As initial position can be seen complaints of employers which are regularly expressed in newspapers, tv and also by unemployment offices concerning the social competencies of young people who come from school and want to enter the employment market. A lot of young people cannot get a vocational training because they don't fulfil the basic qualifications which are needed. To work with non-violent communication strategies can be the first step to develop and improve social competencies of socially disadvantaged young people.

During the meetings the experts of the participating institutions will first compare and analyse their experiences, national conceptions and ideas concerning non-violent communication. In a further step the experts can extend their competencies concerning non-violent communication by incorporating an external adviser into the discussion. Following to these learners of the institutions are to be enabled in workshops of multinational groups to carry out non-violent communication strategies and they are to be encouraged to test them. As they will be transnational groups of learners who probably don’t have a common language we will also use games and body language and we will work creatively like making collages. In the second year of the project there shall be visited institutions that have already worked with non-violent communication strategies in order to inspire further discussions among the experts.

BICOM - Promoting bilingual and intercultural competencies in public health

Medical care for patients with limited proficiency in the national language causes serious problems in European hospitals. Staff members are not equipped to communicate in foreign languages. The use of English as a lingua franca depends on the educational background of both the patient and the health care provider. In view of these limitations, bilingual staff members or relatives of the patients frequently act as ad hoc-interpreters. In some countries professional interpreting services for medical purposes exist, but due to financial and organisational reasons they are not accessible in all hospitals. Regardless of whether professional services are available or not, ad hoc-interpreting will continue to play a major role in communication with non-native patients in all European countries. During a two-year exchange process leading clinic employees, linguists, and cultural scientists, public health-experts and ad hoc- interpreters (employees or volunteers) will come together to highlight multilingualism among clinic employees as a human resource. This resource, however, requires constant encouragement and promotion. The overall goal is to maintain the EU’s linguistic diversity and to foster and enhance linguistic competencies among clinic employees with non-native linguistic background. In the project conditions and existing practices in different European metropolitan areas will be investigated. This will be done via group discussions, meetings with local experts and excursions. Participants will bring in their own experience and reflect on the local initiatives for ameliorating medical services for non-native patients. Together, they will develop a brochure depicting local and national experiences and initiatives.

horex - extension of horizon - common research on and common action against racism and xenophobia

An der Lernpartnerschaft sind 6 lokale Organisationen beteiligt, die sich mit der Integration von benachteiligten Personengruppen beschäftigen. Sie alle haben in ihrer täglichen Arbeit mit Rassismus, Fremdenfeindlichkeit und Diskriminierung auf vielerlei Art zu tun. Sei es, dass rassistische oder fremdenfeindliche Einstellungen unter ihren Lernenden in unterschiedlichem Ausmaß verbreitet sind oder dass die Lernenden selbst Opfer von fremdenfeindlichen Handlungen oder Einstellungen sind. Daher besteht die Notwendigkeit sich mit dem Thema auseinander zu setzen. Es existieren in jeder Einrichtung bereits Konzepte und Methoden, um das Thema mit den Lernenden zu bearbeiten. Zusätzlich gibt es aber weiteren Lernbedarf. Zielgruppen der Lernpartner-schaft sind zum einen junge Erwachsene, die von sozialer Ausgrenzung bedroht sind bzw. sozial/ beruflich nicht integriert sind. Zum anderen werden die Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter der beteiligten Partnerorganisationen als Lernende einbezogen. Ziele der Lernpartnerschaft sind: - die Verbesserung des Informationsstands in Bezug auf die Phänomene Fremdenfeind-lichkeit und Rassismus in den beteiligten Ländern; - Kennen lernen des Umgangs mit den o.g. Phänomenen in der alltäglichen Arbeit mit den Zielgruppen, die damit erzielten Erfolge und aufgetretene Hindernisse; - Reflexion und Optimierung der bisher angewendeten Konzepte und Methoden in transnationalen Arbeitsgruppen; - Entwicklung von konkreten Projekten für die Zukunft, z.B. ein spezielles themenbezogenes Konzept für einen Austausch von Zielgruppenteilnehmer/innen; - Verbreitung der Ergebnisse in der jeweiligen Region (z.B. in Schulen), in der die Organisationen tätig sind, und via Internet und/ oder in Druckform an einschlägige Institutionen.

Intercultural learning during internships in groups of trainees from different countries INTERCULTURE GENDERED TRAINEES

Organizers of European sponsored traineeship exchange programs are facing similar problems as well on the organizational as the pedagogical level. Currently there is a strong tendency towards a preponderance of female candidates for such subsidized exchange programs. Any organization is trying to have a more equilibrated gender composition of their trainee groups which involves differntiated publicity and counselling as well as special encouragement or even incentives. Those procedures merit to be exchanged and collected thoroughly in order to help one another in achieving a commonly shared goal ranging within the gender mainstreaming initiative. Also the type of traineeship positions may have a role to play in this respect, so the process of matching qualification and intentions of candidates for the traineeship with the demands of the enterprises or institutions offering those internship places are to be taken into close consideration. Another aspect meriting closer study is the possibility of intereuropean learning processses as the trainee groups usually living together are composed of different European regions from different countries. Though the common interest is in the culture, language and economy of the hosting country there are nevertheless occasions for learning more from the origin country of the other trainees. Those learning processes should be systematically stimulated in order to create a sense of the common European heritage and common challenges facing most european citizens of the same adult group between 25 and 30.

Intercultural learning during internships in groups of trainees from different countries INTERCULTURE GENDERED TRAINEES

The aim of the project is to develop a toolbox to raise intercultural awareness and counteract the 'shock' often felt by people confronting other cultures either at home or abroad. The project is particularly aimed at adults who have had little or no opportunity to travel and experience other countries. The toolbox will also enhance a better knowledge of each other's culture and habits, making it possible for workers to cross borders and find suitable jobs. The emphasis will be on the process of engaging learners in defining and understanding culture in terms of the everyday aspects such as daily routine, food, travel and work, differences in social norms and interaction, the role of multiculturalism within the participating countries, linguistic diversity and an appreciation of cultural products such music, art and crafts. Activities will be integrated into a variety of different curriculum areas such as foreign language classes and language clubs, communication classes and creative arts and multimedia as appropriate to the individual partner. There will be opportunities for learners to focus on presenting aspects of their own culture and gaining information about others by communicating via email and Internet chat-rooms. Learners will be responsible for planning the contents of the pilot version of the toolbox in a variety of media and presenting the results at a learner conference in the Spring of 2006.

Democracy learning and civic education in Europe in the process of lifelong learning (d-learning)

This learning partnership project which is designed for three years aims to develop a sustainable European network of organisations and institutions promoting “democracy learning” and civic education in different contexts. The partners have composed a study group integrating learners from their local networks. This group - reflects on European democracy in transformation, - compares the conditions of civic education on national levels, - exchanges ideas, concepts and methods in order to create an integral concept of “democracy learning” and develops and implements tools, methods and projects. The approach of the project with regard to “democracy learning” pays particular attention to interfaces of civic education regarding formal and non-formal learning and participation of young adults and minorities in local contexts. The participants work together in an intercultural and intergenerational learning process. Reflection groups are formed in order to work on particular aspects and contexts of democracy learning. An internet platform assures a continuous collaboration of the partners. The results of the learning partnership are published online continuously and are also multiplied by means of publications and/or an international conference.

Bringing E-Learning to Life - BELL

The results from the previous GR2 learning partnership “New confidence in e-learning” brought to light that the drop out rate was fairly high, the image of the demands required for studies in learning surroundings was often diffuse and needed technical skills not qualified enough. What could not be solved were the reasons behind these outcomes. We know that e-learning supplements the range of learning opportunities and that it will meet the need of many for whom conventional education is inappropriate or unavailable – i.e. people living in rural areas and disabled people. Another advantage of e-learning is that it will lead to a better exchange and network both locally and throughout Europe. How can we convince learners/students of e-learning? This learning partnership will focus on a) the tutors/teachers and staff of educational institutes as well as on the companies dedicated to further education. Some of our institutes are situated in rural areas and for them the integration of e-learning will be of particular importance because of the spatial distance. If we can motivate them to methodically apply e-learning to their lessons and to provide a learning infra-structure, it will considerably increase the acceptance of learners/students regarding e-learning. b) the educational institutions which provide the learning environment. They have to provide the infra-structure so that e-learning courses can develop and anxiety and uncertainty will be removed. Examples of good practices of institutions in Europe will point out that e-learning can add value to the learning experiences. They have to take care that the experiences of the first project in constructing online collaborative learning structures will be integrated in the conceptions of the follow-up projects.

KEYWORKERS – Learning in cultural institutions

In the last 6 years museums, art galleries and libraries have proven to be important agencies of new learning societies. Their roles are both educative and educational. Learning environments and the creation of general dispositions to creativity and learning are crucial for the participation of people in learning activities throughout life. There is a growing market to offer learning opportunities in cultural areas but at the same time a lack of knowledge for learners about the “superlearning-effects” by using the cultural environments for learning. These examples reflect some of the richness and diversity of lifelong learning in the area of museums and libraries: 1. learning in museums, art-galleries, libraries and archives can support the (re-)integration of foreigners (e.g. language-learning- courses in the museum), of women after the family-break, of young adults (e.g. apprentices-workshops), the re-habilitation of patients, the unemployed, and inter-generational dialogue. 2. Information, guidance and counselling: advocacy, facilitation of access to learning opportunities, creating a learning culture and supporting partnership based working. 3. Bringing together learners and learning opportunities: Encouraging and supporting learning in cultural environments, e.g. learning in libraries In workshops carried through in the participating countries the learners will be trained in different packs, to learn from one another, to exchange and to pass special examples of good practice and to get informed about the growing opportunities to make use of training offers in their own countries in order to enable them to make use in their own countries of these learning opportunities.

e-tridem.net

Ziel des Projektes e-tridem.net ist die Förderung von Konzepten zum Sprachenlernen mit Neuen Medien unter besonderem Einbezug interkultureller Aspekte. Im Best-Practice-Austausch aller teilnehmenden Einrichtungen und unter wissenschaftlicher Beratung und Begleitung der Pädagogischen Hochschule Ludwigsburg (koordinierende Einrichtung) wird ein Konzept/Kurs zum virtuellen sprachlichen und interkulturellen Austausch von erwachsenen Lernern unterschiedlicher Muttersprachen entwickelt, erprobt und evaluiert. Dabei wechseln sich Online-Phasen auf einer virtuellen Kommunikationsplattform mit begleitenden Präsenzphasen und tutorieller Betreuung vor Ort ab (Blended Learning). Die Lernenden kommunizieren online in Dreiergruppen mit zwei Lernpartnern anderer Nationalitäten, deren Sprache sie zumindest in Grundkenntnissen (aktiv oder rezeptiv) beherrschen. Sie bearbeiten gemeinsam Aufgaben, Themen oder Projekte mit Lebens- und/oder Berufsweltbezug und erhöhen dabei gleichzeitig drei Kompetenzen: ihre Fremdsprachenkompetenz, ihre interkulturelle Kompetenz sowie ihre Kompetenz im Umgang mit Neuen Medien. Alle drei Kompetenzen spielen im erweiterten Europa, hinsichtlich des Erhalts und der Förderung der Beschäftigungsfähigkeit sowie der sich immer weiter etablierenden Informations- und Wissensgesellschaft eine entscheidende Rolle. Das Projekt zielt darauf ab, Defizite in diesem Bereich zu beheben und die Projektergebnisse über die bestehende Partnerschaft hinaus zu verbreiten und damit gleichzeitig in einen öffentlichen Dialog zum Thema "Sprachen lernen mit neuen Medien in der Erwachsenenbidung" zu treten.

NEW LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS: COMMUNITY MEDIA CENTRES

The partners from BE, DE, HU, LV, PL are committed for the improvement of target group orientated media pedagogic concepts. In the partnership, citizens’ media centres and further training institutions offer open training services. The emphasis in the knowledge transfer is on the use of audio-visual media. By involving local communities, the participation of citizens is facilitated. Learning partnership intends to facilitate at the European level the exchange of successful practices in the transfer of media-pedagogic knowledge for target groups enlisted below. This should be the start for new impulses in the media-studies for adults. An exchange with like-minded from other countries shows the differences and expands the learners’ and teachers’ personal horizon. This increases the learning motivation in the target group adult learners. The project partners focus especially on the exchange of target-group oriented media-pedagogic concepts for disadvantaged groups. No modules are developed in this learning partnership. The use of technical support like web-tv and an Internet platform emphasises the trans-nationality and creates European added value. This is strengthened by in the planned exchanges for teachers and trainees. The partnership agreement plans networking and a sustainable continuation of the activities.

INTEGRATION THROUGH PARTICIPATION

Twenty-five staff members, learners and affiliated professionals of different educational organisations from six European countries (Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, The Netherlands) that work with different groups of people who face social and educational disadvantages in their lives for various reasons will exchange their knowledge and train their skills with regard to practices and methods that focus on the resources of the disadvantaged learners, that promote self-expression and creativity and that provide opportunities to disadvantaged learners to share their creativity and the results of self-expression with the larger community. Through their involvement and participation in activities, disadvantaged learners will experience social integration. These practices are also expected to increase the self-confidence of disadvantaged learners, to further build up their resources, to encourage them to take up lifelong learning and to train social skills and competences. Over a period of two years the partners will first exchange and collect good and interesting practices and then implement one practice that fulfils resource-oriented approach at each organisation. During the second year the partners will in addition develop "learn to learn"-modules based on the results of the first year and teach them to other professionals who work with and for disadvantaged learners.

EURO VISIO - MAKING LIFE LONG LEARNING VISIBLE AND SUPPORT IT ON A COMMUNAL AND A EUROPEAN LEVEL.

Through the means of a travelling exhibition EuroVisio wants to disseminate the idea of life long learning as well as to motivate learners, facilitators and funders through good practice. Personal interviews illustrate how life-changing events (migration, unemployment over 45, health problems, family care, ..) result in a new occupation through a learning process. Projects or courses attended by the interviewed persons on their path are presented. First year: the main focus has been building the learning partnership (communication structures, work and timetables, monitoring of the learning partnership) and creation of the exhibition (content and producing the exhibits, organising the event within the local community). Second year: transfer of good practice and know-how: - Like the Olympic flame the exhibition will be travelling from country to country: Greece as final destination. - Workshops will be organised and held by the exhibiting country for the partners to deepen their under-standing on the exhibited themes and social systems in different European countries. The goal is to gain an insight into the different approaches and to transfer practical know-how. Learners from the communities will be included. - Evaluation of the learning partnership (key questionnaire, project diary) and presentation of results by the website to secure transfer and mainstreaming – providing vital clues for the building of learning partnerships. - Development of Grundtvig 1 application

PROMOTION OF LEARNING MOTIVATION IN SOCIALLY DISADVANTAGED GROUPS BY SPORTS MOBYS (MOTIVATION BY SPORTS)

Dem erklärten Ziel der EU der Chancengleichheit bei der aktiven Gestaltung eines zukünftigen Europas sowie der Erreichung der Ziele des lebenslangen Lernens LLL steht eine große Anzahl benachteiligter Gruppen gegenüber, die aus sozioökonomischen oder anderen Gründen notwendige Herausforderungen nicht bewältigen können. Die bisherigen Erfahrungen aus der Arbeit mit Suchtmittelabhängigen zeigen, dass Lernanreize, bis hin zur gesellschaftlich gewünschten Eigenverantwortung des Einzelnen nur marginal wahrgenommen werden. Klassische schulische Methoden vermögen nicht, Lernmotivation zu schaffen. Im Gegensatz hierzu könnten im Sport- und Bewegungsbereich Möglichkeiten liegen, positive Motivations- und Lernimpulse zu erzielen.

Das Projekt richtet sich an ausgrenzungsgefährdete oder bereits ausgegrenzte männliche und weibliche Erwachsene, die aufgrund ihrer Lebensumstände nicht (mehr) dazu neigen, an Initiativen für Erwachsenenbildung und Lebensbegleitendes Lernen teilzunehmen. Ziel des Projektes ist es, herauszufinden, ob es in den Ländern und Arbeitsfeldern der Projektpartner schon Angebote oder Nutzen gibt, die sich aus dem Gedankengut des LLL in Verbindung mit Sport ergeben. Sollten Erfahrungen vorhanden sein, ist zu eruieren, ob spezifische Effekte aus dem Sportbereich zu generalisieren und in andere Lern- und Lebensbereiche zu transformieren sind. Sind keine Erfahrungen vorhan.

METHODEN ZUR IDENTIFIKATION FORMELL UND INFORMELL ERWORBENER KOMPETENZEN

Menschen lernen nicht nur in der Schule oder in der Weiterbildungseinrichtung, sie eignen sich Kompetenzen bei der Ausübung ihrer privaten Interessen, im Rahmen ehrenamtlicher Arbeit oder im sozialen Kontext an. Informell erworbene Kompetenzen rücken immer mehr in den Fokus bildungspolitischer Überlegungen. Menschen, denen klar ist, was sie alles können, wird auch klarer, wo sich sich einbringen und wie sie sich weiterentwickeln können. In dieser Lernpartnerschaft werden die Lernbilder der beteiligten Einrichtungen analysiert und diskutiert und unter dem Kriterium beleuchtet ob der Lernende in der einzelnen Institution durch die Brille eines Defizit- oder eines Potentialansatzes betrachtet wird. Die Kommunikation der einzelnen Partner über ihre Konzepte von Lehrenden und Lernenden mündet in die Betrachtung der Unterschiede bzw. Gemeinsamkeiten bei den einzelnen Einrichtungen/Ländern. Als zweiter Schritt werden die verschiedenen Konzepte diskutiert, wie informell erworbene Kompetenzen bei Kursteilnehmern identifiziert und berücksichtigt werden, bzw. welche Möglichkeiten praktikabel sind. Die verschiedenen Konzepte werden mit den Vertretern der einzelnen Einrichtungen auf einen gemeinsamen Symposium diskutiert und die Ergebnisse in die einzelnen Einrichtungen zurückgespiegelt. Ziel ist es, best practice Modelle aufzuzeigen und eine Entwicklungslinie in den Weiterbildungseinrichtungen zu stärken, die von einem Potentialansatz getragen ist und Methoden fördert, die bei Kursteilnehmern die vorhandenen Kompetenzen identifizieren. Ggf. können in Zukunft diese Kompetenzen mit Mitteln wie einem Weiterbildungs- bzw. Kompetenzpass dokumentiert werden.

Erfahrungsaustausch über beste Konzepte interkultureller Vorbereitungsseminare - Grenzen überwinden und Mobilität fördern

Um Europa als Arbeits- und Lernort für alle Zielgruppen real werden zu lassen ist es insbe-sondere für nicht akademisch gebildete Menschen, für junge Arbeitnehmer in der beruflichen Erstausbildung oder in der Weiterbildung, eine wesentliche Unterstützung der Mobilitätsabsichten, wenn sie diesen Schritt über die Grenzen durch ein interkult. Trainingsseminar vorbereiten können. Durch eine intensive interkult. Vorbereitung kann der Aufenthalt im Ausland optimiert und die Betreuungsintensität durch die aufnehmenden Einrichtungen erheblich abgebaut werden. Im Rahmen der LernP sollen Ausbildungscurricula für die sprachl. u. insbes. interkult. Vorbereitung von TeilnehmerInnen, verglichen, evaluiert und gute Beispiele ausgetauscht werden. Auf der Grundlage der verschiedenen Lehr- und Lerninhalte soll bei jedem Partner ein Seminar exemplarisch durchgeführt u. von den Ausbildern u. Lehrkräften der beteiligten internat. Partner hospitiert und evaluiert werden. Das Ziel der LernP besteht in der nachhaltigen Kenntnisnahme der inhaltl. u. method. Instrumente, die die Partner für ihre Zielgruppen einsetzen u. welchen Nutzen dies für die Teilnehmer bringt. Die Ergebnisse werden dann für alle Partner und Interessierte dokumentiert u. können so zur Optimierung der europ. Berufsbildungsabschnitte von Mobilitätsteilnehmern im Ausland nutzbar gemacht werden.

Vermittlung christlicher Werte im europäischen Vergleich

Unsere Gesellschaften benötigen Werte, auf welchen aufbauend sich menschliches miteinander Leben gestalten kann. Vielerorts wird ein Werteverfall beklagt. Auch für das zusammenwachsende Europa stellt sich die Frage gemeinsamer Wertegrundlagen. Ziel des Projektes ist es, sich mit der Vermittlung christlicher Werte in verschiedenen Ländern Europas auseinanderzusetzen. Am Projekt sind kirchliche Erwachsenenbildungseinrichtungen aus Deutschland, Litauen und Polen beteiligt. In einer ersten Phase beschäftigen sich die Beteiligten mit der Vermittlung christlicher Werte in ihrem eigenen Land. Dabei wird auch die Rolle der Kirchen und kirchlichen Einrichtungen beleuchtet. Mögliche Orte der Untersuchung werden Schulen, katholische Gemeinden und Erwachsenenbildung sein. Aus diesem Grund richtet sich das Projekt an Religionslehrer, Katecheten, Pastoral- und Gemeindereferenten sowie ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter in katholischen Gemeinden. Diese sollen nach Beendigung des Projektes als Multiplikatoren fungieren. Die Arbeit in den einzelnen Ländern wird in zwei multilateralen Treffen fortgesetzt und erweitert. Beim ersten Austauschtreffen steht die Bestandsaufnahme der aktuellen Situation in den Partnerländern zu Möglichkeiten, Orten und Formen der Vermittlung christlicher Werte im Mittelpunkt. Beim zweiten Treffen soll die vergleichende Methodik und Didaktik im Vordergrund stehen. Im zweiten Projektjahr wird der Hauptakzent auf Hospitationen und Praktika von Lernenden in den Partnerländern liegen, um das Kennenlernen neuer pädagogischer Konzepte und die spätere Erprobung im eigenen Umfeld zu ermöglichen. Die Projektergebnisse sollen über Internet, Radio und Broschüre veröffentlicht werden.

Competent and Active Citizens in Europe

Using Citizenship (Local, National and European) studies to teach language to refugee & migrant groups to promote social inclusion at work and leisure. The project will examine and develop the ethics, approach, syllabus, materials and methodology of active citizenship teaching and learning. Developing intercultural competences of teachers in order to enhance competences of learners. Creating learners’ awareness of their strengths and weaknesses to help the learner to clarify realistic possibilities and potentials to make a meaningful contribution to their new community. Conducting field research, evaluation and then exchanging good practice between the partners’ teachers. Although at 8 participants the size of the group will present a challenge in respect of co-ordination and communication it is also a significant advantage in addressing the size, complexity and diversity of the issues active citizenship learning presents. The possibility of dividing the work into two groups at various stages is clear and may well be implemented.

Music education in early childhood for disabled and non-disabled children: significance for parents and grandparents

„Wer unterschiedliche Menschen zusammenbringen will, muss eine gemeinsame Sprache finden.“ Diese gemeinsame Sprache ist zweifelsohne die Musik, das ureigenste Kommunikationsmittel. In der heutigen Zeit ist Musik überall präsent, aber im Bildungsverständnis hat Musik in den europäischen Ländern einen unterschiedlichen Stellenwert. Wir wissen, dass unser Ohr das Organ ist, das die ersten und die letzten Reize in unserem Leben aufnimmt. Noch ungeboren begegnen wir mit dem Herzschlag der Mutter erstmals dem Rhythmus und damit der Musik. Und wenn sich viele Jahrzehnte später der Lebenskreis schließt, ist unser Ohr noch aktiv: Auch in der Narkose, während hohen Fiebers oder im Koma hören wir mehr als wir fühlen, schmecken oder riechen. Die Lernpartnerschaft stellt die Bedeutung der Musikerziehung im frühkindlichen Bereich für behinderte und nichtbehinderte Kinder sowie die Bedeutung der Musik für den älter werdenden Menschen in den Mittelpunkt. Mit dem Vergleich kultureller Unterschiede in der Musikerziehung und in den Angeboten für das Lebensbegleitende Lernen soll aus der Lernpartnerschaft eine Lernende Partnerschaft (Eltern – Großeltern, Erzieher/innen, Lehrer/innen, Ärzte, Wissenschaftler) für Kinder werden, die den Aufbau eines europäischen Netzwerkes „Musizierende (cantare et sonare) Kindergärten und Schulen mit Eltern und Großeltern“ initiieren möchte. Dadurch wird die Fähigkeit durch Stimme und Sprache mit anderen zu kommunizieren gefördert, der Dialog der Generationen unterstützt und der Einsatz von Musiktherapie bei Sprachbehinderung besonders beachtet. Für die Laufzeit 2005 - 2006 wollen wir die die Ergebnisse gegenüberstellen und den Aufbau eines Netzwerkes planen.

Modularisierung in der Erwachsenenbildung - Transnationaler Erfahrungsaustausch zum Aufbau eines Netzwerkes

Im Mittelpunkt der Lernpartnerschaft steht die Modularisierung von Bildungsangeboten der Erwachsenenbildung im transnationalen europäischen Kontext. Lernen in Modulen mit (Teil-) Zertifizierungen ist in den Partnerländern nach Modellversuchen und Übergangsphasen auf je spezifische Weise eingeführt worden oder in Planung.

Ziel ist es, sich über modularisierte Angebote insbesondere im Bereich e-leraning auszutauschen, voneinander zu lernen und ein gemeinsames Netzwerk aufzubauen. In allen Partnerinstitutionen ist eine weitergehende Modularisierung des Bildungsangebots vorgesehen. Dafür sollen die unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen zunächst evaluiert werden, um über einen intensiven partnerschaftlichen Austausch mit Lehrenden und Lernenden das jeweilige Bildungsangebot zu verbessern.

Eine Folge der individualisierten Lernprozesse in Europa ist das Anliegen vieler Erwachsener (Teil-) Kompetenzen transnational zu erwerben. Dies trifft insbesondere auf Migranten zu. Die wechselseitige Anerkennung von Zertifikaten erfordert auch die stärkere Einbindung von interkulturellen Lernkonzepten in modulare Lernsysteme. Gemeinsam werden die Projektpartner daher best-practice- Module entwickeln und in dem geplanten Netzwerk weiter entwickeln.

Im Rahmen des Projektes wirken die beteiligten Institutionen (aus Deutschland, Italien, Polen u. Spanien) aktiv an der Erstellung von didaktischen Modulen u. Arbeitsmaterialien mit. Im Sinne der Aktionsforschung erfolgen Bedarfserhebung, reale Erprobung u. multimediale Aufbereitung. Durch diese Identifizierung bestimmter länderspezifischer Informationen (Basics) wird älteren Menschen die Beteiligung an europäischen Begegnungen und Austauschprogrammen erleichtert, somit werden „Türöffner für Europa“ erarbeitet. Das geplante Ergebnis ist ein Repertoire an Basics über die jeweils anderen Kulturen. Diese „Basics“ umfassen Schlüsselinformationen, - situationen, -themen, -wörter, Rituale, Lieder, alltägliche Umgangsformen etc. Dadurch werden Grundlagen erarbeitet, die den Zugang zu anderen Ländern u. Kulturen Europas erleichtern und die Einstellung zum Fremden verändern können. Der Projektverlauf der einzelnen Gruppen wird auf einer projekteigenen Webseite dokumentiert (www.gemeinsamlernen.de/ode). Modellhaft zu entwickelnde Arbeitsmaterialien sollen mit jeweils einem Partnerland erprobt und nach Ablauf der Projektphase von verschiedenen Bildungsträgern verwendet werden. Die Ergebnisse sollen in Form einer multimedialen CD-ROM einer breiten Öffentlichkeit zur Verfügung gestellt u. für zukünftige Projekte im Bereich der Seniorenarbeit, aber auch für andere Zielgruppen, genutzt werden.

NetCo Erfolgreiche Netzwerke und Kooperationen als eine Strategie für LLL in Europa

The European Learning Partnership „NetCo“ shall contribute to improve the regional and transnational structures of life-long-learning and increase the professional competences of educational suppliers in networking and cooperative working. It has to be assumed that networks and cooperation have varied potential for the improvement of regional and European educational structures at their disposal. At the same time networks and cooperation represent sensitive systems, which are susceptible to disruption. There are specific professional competences required to build up and manage them. First of all within the bounds of the Learning Partnership the following aspects shall be examined: - With what target the educational suppliers develop networks and cooperation in the involved partner countries? - In what way networks and cooperation contribute to achieve new target groups for example people, who are not used to education, people in regions with rural character, employees in small and middle sized enterprises or other target groups, which are difficult to get hold of. - There will be compiled a list with examples of good practice of successful networks and cooperation, where educational suppliers are involved in. There will be worked out a recommendation on the basis of the inquiries and comparisons: - How are successful networks and cooperation built up and managed successfully in the educational market? - What is the feature of educational suppliers, which are capable of cooperating? - What kind of need for support and qualification do employees working in educational institutions and other participants have, to organize networking and cooperation successfully? - How could a European characterized network- and cooperation competence be defined and qualified?

TIES Theatre: Ideas by Exchange and Support

Vor dem Hintergrund des Europäischen Jahres der Menschen mit Behinderung kommen Einrichtungen, die mit Menschen mit Behinderung arbeiten, miteinander in Kontakt und tauschen ihre Ideen und Erfahrungen in der Arbeit mit Menschen mit Behinderung (meist geistig behindert) aus. Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf der Unterstützung von Freizeitaktivitäten der Lernenden, denen die Möglichkeit geboten werden soll mit Menschen mit Behinderung aus anderen europäischen Ländern in Kontakt zu kommen. Die bereits bestehende kreative Arbeit - Musik in einigen Einrichtungen, Theater und Tanz in anderen - soll während des Projektes zu einer gemeinsamen Aufführung am Ende zusammengeführt werden. Da der Schwerpunkt in der Kommunikation der Lernenden auf Rhythmus und Musik liegt sind keine größeren Probleme durch die Sprachbarrieren zu erwarten. Ziel ist die Ermutigung zum Selbstausdruck, die Gewinnung von Unabhängigkeit und Selbstvertrauen und die Beweglichkeit in der Öffentlichkeit. Die Integration von Menschen ohne Behinderung und die höhere Präsenz von Menschen mit Behinderung ist Hauptziel des Projektes. Partner im Projekt sind eine Vereinigung zur Arbeit mit Behinderten in der Slowakei, ein Berufsbildungsinstitut in Finnland, eine integriert arbeitende Oberschule in Portugal, ein Tageszentrum für Jugendliche mit Behinderung in Litauen und eine Volkshochschule in Deutschland.

The Knowledge Shop

The projekt "Knowledge Shop" develops a concept of how to involve "learners" more actively in the process of learning and in the development of courses´, and of how to integrate their experience and preferences. During the first two years we conducted six meetings in plenary and workshop session to meet and discuss with learners. We reflected on new culture of learning, service centre, boundary conditions, methods and approaches, learners' functions and atmosphere of the service centre. We designed a questionnaire on learning situations and processes dedicated to learners, to see their preferences and dislikings. This questionnaire will be available in April 2005 in print version and online on the Knowledge Shop webpage. This webpage was - designed by all partners - set up and is maintained by the Bulgarian partner. The online version of the questionnaire is expected to be filled in by 500 learners from all involved countries, and the data will help us to precise our outlines of the Knowledge Shop concept. The third year will be the year of dissemination and sustainability: following an initial training session in Rome all partners will conduct Scenario Workshops which involve relevant local actors (learners, VET providers, policy makers and the economy) in the design of the Knowledge Shop concept and function. Questionnaire and Scenario Workshop will collect data, opinions and strategies of an effective realisation of the Knowledge Shop concept. By the end of the third year a prepoposal for a cooperation project will be submitted under Grundtvig 1: it will aim at producing guidelines for the construction and maintenance of a Knowledge Shop, about methodological aspects and also on architectural visions of a House of Knowledge.

Network of Intergenerational Learning in Europe (NIGEL)

In the two years of the Nigel learning partnership the foundation of a network of intergenerational learning between the participating partner organisations was achieved. Some other National, European and International Organisations and Networks became interested in our topics and contexts in which it is applied (remembrance, peace education and conflict management, opening the school for community development, environment and sustainability). We plan to spend the third year finding ways to share this knowledge more widely in Europe so that many more people can benefit from understanding the concept and practice of intergenerational learning and the range of national and community contexts in which it can be of use. We started a discussion about the further steps to facilitate and sustain intergenerational learning. Our goal is now to build on this, and explore the feasibility of creating a Forum of Intergenerational Learning in Europe. In order to achieve it, we will use the third year of our learning partnership for • pulling together the resources of the Network (training tools, curriculum, evaluation tools, some theoretical background, the website) • making visible the resources of the Network by developing a poster exhibition and a booklet in the current languages of the learning partners • promoting knowledge about intergenerational learning in the fields of adult education, voluntary services, schools, community development, remembrance and peace education, environment and sustainability • the provision of learning opportunities which reflect the identified learning needs of members

Deep impressions - parents learn the narrative method for parents work in drug prevention

The target group of the project are parents who are active in parents work. The parents will learn a method for convincing other people– the narrative method-. They will be able to understand it, use it for themselves and other people in various areas in parent education. The narrative method shows how an emotional access to a theme can be used to get a deep impression on a target person to make it able to refer with the theme and to process solutions. Starting point of the learning process is the common visit of an international appreciated interactive exhibition on the field of drug prevention in Hungary, where this method is used successfully. The project participants of four European countries attend the learning process by visiting the exhibition and exchanging their impressions and learning to represent the process of the own deep impressions to make it accessible and usable for other people, too. The project progress will be represented by the learners themselves through a material collection (letters, photos, draws, poems, reports and so on to use for the method) and evaluated on international meetings. By this way the learners will process their experiences and make them usable for themselves and other people.

CHALLENGING ACTIONS IN GENDER MAINSTREAMING - STRATEGIES AND TOOLS FOR IMPLEMENTING GENDER MAINSTREAMING IN EUROPE The overall aim of the project is to compare, develop and improve strategies and tools for gender mainstreaming implementation. The persuance of this aim will entail an investigation and exchange of good practice in the field of gender mainstreaming (GM) and the use of information technology in delivering training courses for trainers: 1. We will start comparing the work that every partner and organisation participating in this learning partnership has already done in consulting and training concerning GM in public, private, political and educational sectors throughout Europe. 2. The result will be obtaining a general idea of good practice. We will identify criteria and necessary skills in implementation of GM, gender training and training teachers and trainers acting gender sensitive in their work. These outcomes will have an improving impact on our work concerning gender equality. 3. The improved knowledge we will transfer to our clients, the decision makers, change agents and members of our own organisations. 4. In this way the learning partnership will contribute to the development of improved cohesive strategic plans and training courses in operation.

Making Womens's History Visible in Europe

Die Lernpartnerschaft hat das Ziel, im zusammenwachsenden Europa durch gemeinsame Lernprozesse die Unterrepräsentanz von Frauengeschichte sichtbar zu machen und für die Verstärkung geschlechtergerechten historischen Bewußtseins zu wirken. Die Verbreiterung und Stärkung des Anteils frauengeschichtlicher Präsentationen in historischen Museen Europas und die Förderung eines geschlechterdemokratischern Perspektivenwechsels in den unterschiedlichen Darstellungen sind projektübergreifende Zielstellungen aller Projektpartner. Durch das Kennenlernen und Wertschätzen sowohl der Unterschiede als auch der Gemeinsamkeiten sollen die Zugänge zu gemeinsamen Wurzeln in der kulturellen Überlieferung erweitert und in entsprechenden Bildungsangeboten sichtbar gemacht werden. Die Partner werden in einem Symposium Sichten auf einen frauengeschichtlichen historischen Zeitraum zusammentragen, sich über die jeweilige Methodik des gemeinsamen Vorgehens sowohl bei der Arbeit zu den auf Geschlechtergerechtigkeit zielenden Inhalten als auch in einer die Vielfalt wertschätzenden Arbeitsweise bei der Durchführung des Lern-partnerschaftsprojekts verständigen. Sie wollen sich im Verlauf des partnerschaftlichen Austausches mit Formen webbasierter Museumsarbeit bekannt machen und bedienen sich im Prozeß der Projektdurchführung verschiedener Arten von neuen Informations- und Kommunikationstechniken (e-mail- Austausch, Online-Meetings). In Transnationalen Projektteamtreffen werden Lehrende und Lernende prozeßorientierte, partizipative, dialogische, Kooperation praktizieren. Von einem gemeinsamen Ausgangspunkt streben sie mit ihrer aktiven Partnerschaft eine nachhaltige Vernetzung an, um weiterhin effizient zu kooperieren. Zu diesem Zweck wird die Partnerschaft im 2. Projektjahr erweitert.

Men and Non-formal education – participation and learning of social skills (MENPART)

Since men's participation in adult education activities throughout Europe is low, new approaches are needed to reach men.

This project aims to research men’s participation in education primarily on an informal or basic skills level. We intend to look at what attracts men into the education field. The research projects´ starting point is to look at what educational programmes are provided for men and what men's participation levels are in other courses as well. This research will be compared by the learning partners. We will then analyse the results on a European basis. This will give us an overall indication of what men’s interests are in different countries and what is being provided educationally for men. This will provide us with information about the uptake of men in adult education courses. We also intend to examine if men’s educational needs are being met. The learning partner’s will collate this data and make it available to others. We then intend to produce a document of Good Practice which will inform workers in the adult education field about the models of education which encourage men’s participation. The primary goal of this learning partnership is to examine men’s current participation level in education and to see how their participation level can be improved.

As this project has developed the opportunity has arisen to document the learning process on video. This video will form part of our final submission in addition to the above.

HEALTH AWARENESS AMONG PARENTS

This project will contribute to the improvement of youth health through removing gaps and increasing communication between generations and European society. As a matter of fact, there is little knowledge about parents´ sensibility and cognition of youth health needs. In addition there is a lack of understanding of their children´ needs and problems. Therefore, the main aim of the project is to facilitate an awareness of parents of issues young people face. This aim will be achieved through identification of the main areas of concern, establishment of local and international collaborating network, exchange findings and best practices in empowerment of parent and dissemination of information. The implementation of the project will increase collaboration between parents of different countries, spread stories of success and stimulate better communication between generations and nations. The main expected outcomes of the project are the following: a) to increase local community awareness about the importance of protecting and nurturing health of young people; b) to establish local and international network of parents, youth, educators and health care providers; c) to conduct research; d) to disseminate and discuss results at meetings and seminars; e) to prepare educational package for parents´ education.

ADULT LEARNERS FORUM (ALF)

Adult education institutions from present project have a lot of experiences in providing courses in accordance with learners´ needs and market demand and supporting active citizenship. At the same time in most partner-countries the dialogue between teachers and learners themselves is missing. The lack of the possibility of joint discussions and co-operation, also exchange of experiences with other learners from different countries, has been constantly brought out as a weakness in adult education by learners themselves. The aim of the present project is to diminish the above mentioned disagreement by initiating an Adult Learners Forum (ALF), developing a partnership at national and European level and involving adult learners. As a basis for that the model of ALF will have to be worked out. The ALF is the place where learners´ meetings, workshops and seminars will take place, where they could discuss their problems, hold dialogues with training providers and social partners, and make proposals for solving their problems. During the project duration the learners will be involved in elaborating the ALF model, developing their networks, and disseminating the project outputs, both in their countries as well as the international level. Different learners target groups will be represented in the permanently operating ALF, whereas highly motivated learners could act as promoters for the disadvantaged learners and/or women with lower educational level, who need support and encouragement in their learning activities.

ALPHABETBOOK (Alfavitari)

The ALPHABETBOOK is an educational process that combines cultural, artistic and learning goals. In the various stages of the ALPHABETBOOK the participants will create images that are illustrations of a word that derives from a letter of the alphabet from the culture where they come from. This process will demand skills that have to be learnt and, more important, understanding of various concepts (aesthetic, social, artistic). Each partner will choose their learner’s group, and organize them in workshops. These groups will be selected on the basis on whether the process of the project can help the struggle of the particular group against prejudice and xenophobia. The partners will decide whether they will be working with the same group for the whole period of the program or if they will work with different groups in various periods of time. The process can incorporate art forms other than the visual ones, such as theater or music. The main concept of the ALPHABETBOOK derives from the belief that culture and education are probably the most powerful tools for the empowerment of the individual. The final outcome will be an actual book, the ALPHABETBOOK, and it will prove that various ideas and concepts can find common ground under the same format and thus create new interpretations.

“Intercultural Understanding and Tolerance”

This is a three year project in which participate three Organizations from Southeast Europe. The target group are the parents of Primary and Secondary Education Students. The aim of the project is the development of a spirit of mutual understanding and acceptance among parents of different nationalities, origin and culture that coexist in the School communities of the participating countries Greece (coordinating organization), Bulgaria and Italy. The main objective is to educate a team of parents in each of these countries, who will act as multipliers for the promotion of the project. To fulfil the above aim for the first two years the focus will be on the training of the learners. During the third year the learners will share the knowledge and the experience they have gained with other local organizations and the School community, organizing different activities. These activities will include preparation and evaluation meetings, workshops and also production of material with the participation of the parents. There will also be some selected material published on the website and meetings of the learners, so that they can exchange experiences, ideas and material of intercultural activities (e.g. music, theatre, ethnic festivals) with the cooperation of parents, teachers students and local citizens in general.

Food: fight obesity and other diseases

The project “Food -fight obesity and other diseases”, wants to develop an innovative training course as a tool for parents, teachers and trainers to qualify them in educating children about adequate nutritional habits and health matters.

The European Union estimates that effective strategies are necessary to protect children in their food intake. Children are vulnerable consumers. Sophisticated techniques of marketing bombard every day our children with advertisements of hyper caloric food and drinks.

One of the main results is children overweight and obesity. In Spain, the obesity in 6-12 year old children has grown from 4,9% in 1984 to 16,1% in 2000, being one of the Member States with highest figures. (source: Ministry of Health). Illnesses linked to obesity go from situations that affect the quality of life to very serious cases that can even result in premature death. Children need an appropriate education in nutrition.

In this project partners from different countries will do a comparative study about the causes of diseases connected with food (obesity, anorexia, bulimia, binge disease) among children from 6 to 12. And they will develop a training course to respond to the needs highlighted in the research, and finally this course will be experimented on sample groups of adults.

ENTRAMUS- European Network of Traditional Music Schools

The revival of traditional music is a cultural and pedagogical issue that tries to value the native European cultures but is usually dealing only with the local ones. The traditional music in AE has the advantage of proximity, dejà-vu of most materials, that encourage and stimulate the demand of adult learners. The partnership will try to reach the target groups in rural areas which have a more difficult access to learning, through a training course of traditional music and dancing, exchange of trainers and the creation of a network of cooperation with the partner institutions.

EP-PH: On-going education for prisoners, a humanitarian project

The project targets at one of the groups most marginalised in our society: people deprived of their freedom. This LP thinks necessary to have an educational project that adapts and defines again the curricula to the needs and circumstances of prisons. As well it is necessary to establish the staff and means required and also the administrative measures for putting them into practice.

This project comes out of the great interest and deep social commitment that all of us feel and we will try to analyse and change the prevailing situation in prisons and offer a humanitarian alternative to the learners in their educational process, without forgetting that it is through education how they can be inluded again in society and that the integral development of their personality is based on education that takes into account human needs.

Extract the universal vocabulary of literacy from the participants’ point of view

The project comes out of the need to have up-to-date and adapted materials to be used with adults to be taught reading and writing, and based on the philosophy of Paulo Freire imbedded in the western society.

It intends to develop active methods to detect needs and interests of the participants in these groups, systematize the selection of content and vocabulary main axis of the literacy process.

These processes to detect needs can be common to different languages and societies, but the concrete field of generating words will depend on the progression criteria that each language requires when being learnt.

Barriers to employment (B to E)

Many people with disabilities have to face a lot of barriers to get a job. There is no organization that can provide the full support and help they need. This project intends to create a framework of integral assistance to facilitate a common strategy. The standards of qualifications are an important element to get a job or to be promoted in the job, and one of the lacking skills is ICT, for the public in general and for disabled persons in particular.

That is one of the main barriers for this group in all the participating countries in this LP, and the result is marginalisation, discrimination, difficulties in communication and also in access to services.

To be parents today: intergenerational education in Europe After analysing the work done on parenthood in the first year, we decided to broaden the aims of this project and that will allow us to know about new experiences and tools.

We already have a grasp about how each partner institution was working on this issue, and now we need to analyse and define the best methods, measure their impact, and finally define the new skills required from the trainers and social workers.

We count on the collaboration of the University of Castilla La Mancha to help us with research tools and methodology, and also with the validation of the tools.

We intend to use a tool that is a scale that measures the parental competence of parents and that will allow us to work out many of the issues involved in the relationship parents-children. We will also try and validate this tool to be used in Mediterranean countries and later on in the whole education community.

Enterprise and immigration in EU

The project intends to help employers and employees to understand better the multicultural people they work with. The origen and sociocultural situation of the countries where the immigrants come from will be taken into account. It is important to understand these facts when working in a multicultural milieu. The philosophy behind the project is “kowledge versus ignorance” to help keep Europe at peace and combat racism and xenophobia. Immigrants are potential workers in all European countries and their employers do not know their languages, culture, traditions, ways of life etc… Nowadays we can find training courses for immigrants about the culture, language and ways of life of the countries they have emigrated to, but there are no training courses for employers and colleagues about the culture and languages of this labour force coming from very different countries in the world.

The aim of the project is to integrate the immigrants better in their jobs and in their new countries through training courses that can help to have a better mutual understanding of their traditions, ways of thinking and peculiarities.

Analysis of the difficulties and achievements in Adult Education

We intend to do a comparative analysis among adult learners of the participating countries of the attitudes and sociocultural values that make adults enrol in AE training.

This analysis will allow us to detect and compare the motivation of those who demand education, whether it involves basic skills or not, in order to clarify concepts and basic strategies that can help to provide an adequate intervention in this educational field.

We will try and develop the social skills in a structured way because this reflects the way other skills are acquired, and that will help us detect the previous cognitive abilities and facilitate the learners a positive interpersonal relationship.

The main aim is to innovate and improve the education quality in a collaborative way with all the partners, and to learn about other cultures and languages.

LEI: to learn and enjoy through the use of information

Libraries in our society are a basic cornerstone in LLL for all people that through information can become citizens with better skills and abilities and therefore more free. The project intends that adults, specially parents, value and know the possibilities and resources the libraries may offer them and use them as LLL tools sharing reading activities, both fiction and information, with their children in their leisure time. We will go on working on two types of activities: reading groups and workshops to improve digital literacy, using the experience and models that we can share with our European partners. We also intend to disseminate the project at local and international levels by means of talks, conferences, and a course for professionals at international level, with the aim to make reading a daily task for most citizens, and taking the libraries into account as the best tool to achieve this purpose.

Engaging new groups of adults into LLL. (ENGALL)

All adult education institutions both private and public have undergone important changes in Europe in recent years. Managing and planning issues get more and more complicated while funding gets more scarce. And also these institutions have to attract clients as if they were private enterprises and their managing teams lack the needed training for that, and they have also to care for their educational objectives and commitments with society. It is necessary to give them the required competences to engage new groups of adults and at the same time to care for their traditional customers and provide them with new competences and skills required in the information and globalized society of nowadays, and that requires new managing skills that this project intends to clarify and provide. After the first year, we focused our tasks in paying special attention to those persons with no basic skills or who have them at a very low level, unemployed and those who have been working at the same place for years without any further training. We decided to join forces and research, compare, practice benchmarking, trying new ways of doing, innovating our teaching and learning methods.... In this third year our main aim is to facilitate the mobility of learners so that they can know the meaning of living, working or studying in other countries, and get the feeling as we as trainers have, that they are members of a community with very different partners but common and shared interests, worries, ways of life and expectations. We specially intend that they understand that cultural diversity and different languages are not an obstacle to common understanding, friendship, active citizenship and a better society.

EQU@LANG

One of the most evident manifestations of gender discrimination is language. Its influence in thought and social attitudes is strong and makes acceptable some attitudes that then turn into aggressive behaviour and ill treatment to women. This project, imbedded in the field of coeducation, intends to consolidate gender equality and for that will create a learning network for the use of non sexist language in primary and secondary education. This will be achieved by training adults (parents, teachers and educational staff) in the use of non sexist language as a key point in the transfer of values to boys and girls in schools.

SKILLNET: Continuous training in Social Skills for Adults

The students in training courses aiming at getting a job, are lacking in basic and instrumental skills. Basic skills are acquired in formal education through subject matters like maths, native language, sciences, etc… Social skills are acquired informally, they are not included in a formal curriculum, though they are important to get a job, and when the candidates are deficient in this area, they are bound to be excluded professionally and socially.

We intend to analyse the social skills required in social and professional relationships, so that we can determine the concrete training needs of the users of Continuous Training Courses for Adults. Then this experience can be transferred to trainers, parents, teachers, etc.. Our partnership will try to create training modules in social skills that could be of general use.

ENREDATE

The influence of ICT in people is reflected in their social, cultural, economical, working and even in their political life. The technological development has changed ways of life, work, access to education, public services, communication and learning tools…, having become one tool of everyday life. However, its use requires specific knowledge and skills that if not attained will increase the differences between those who have those skills and those who have not, creating a new way of social exclusion: technology. The LP will work on new approaches from the detected needs in ICT and from a perspective of gender. The ample experience of the participating institutions will guarantee an enriching debate on the practice, methodology, materials and techniques on Women and ICT. And that will produce materials (training modules, handbooks, website) to be disseminated at European level.

New approaches to the LLL process in European Dimension (AMICA)

The majority of the problems we face in adult education deal with the affective component of the learning process that is left aside by the traditional teaching approaches. Our course proposal for adult educators intends to address all these issues using new methodologies in the light of psycho-pedagogical research.

The main objective of the project is to create an innovative active-learning training course for a broad group of adult educators with the intention of bringing together and adapting various non-traditional user-friendly methods for different subjects, fields, levels and ages of students and countries. During the project phase series of pilot courses will be held in the different partner countries using various languages, and different alternative approaches and avant-garde methods will be presented in several course modules, namely: Motivation in the Adult Classroom, Techniques to increase Self-esteem, Anxiety reduction for Adult Learners, Drama Techniques, Affective Component of Adult Learning, Mental Imagery as a Tool to Foster LLL. Great importance will be given to the European Dimension of the course through European evenings and European learning/teaching “brain-storming”- exchange of ideas and experience and team of trainers from different partner countries.

MusicArt: a limitless world

The Schools of Art, Music and Dancing have a long history in most European countries. They fulfil an important social role in their communities because they target at very different types of learners: children, adults, disabled, socially disadvantaged persons etc… They are educational institutions of “culture”, in which are carried out the same methodological and didactic processes as in formal education.

Our project will exchange know-how and teaching experiences among the different partners as the approaches in this type of education depend on the traditions and culture of each country. We intend that the trainers learn experience and research the strategies developed in the different countries and that both trainers and learners share experiences and appreciate the identity of each country and learn their cultural traditions.

Teaching a second language through intercultural activities

There are many adults learning a second or third language with different aims in mind. Though some of these learners travel to other countries, they have hardly any opportunity to communicate with native speakers or other learners. Many of them have skills that could help them in this communication: dancing, music, painting, artistic crafts etc… Aims: -to make them aware of their cultural heritage -to promote tolerance to cultural diversity -to encourage social integration Objectives: -to help participants to get a good command of the language by providing appropriate communication skills and learning experiences -to develop self-esteem and self-confidence by encouraging a multi-disciplinary approach to language learning

UNITED: Unity from Diversity

We intend to know how elderly people from different European countries organize their time and also discover their interests, worries, expectations and needs, to look for common points, to connect, unify and try to satisfy them through common educational programmes designed for elderly students.

The work will be two-fold: a) To know leisure habits, lifestyle, needs, of people older than 60, who live in urban areas and who demand education, with the aim of designing a syllabus adapted to their interests. b) To analyse the education of elderly people in the different countries and try to improve it with the shared good practices helped by ICT.

IMPATH- Immigrants pathways

The project intends to create a framework for exchanging the different practices for the social integration of first and second generation immigrants in the participating institutions. Each country has its own outlook and reality concerning immigration but they also share things in common, and that includes countries with a long tradition of immigration (France) and those where the phenomenon is relatively new (Finland, Ireland and Spain). Along the first year the partners have been able to know the situation of their colleagues, problems and methodology used as well as the concrete projects about inclusion and fight against it that each institution develops. In the second year the work will be focused on the exchange and experimentation of the best practices selected by each partner. All these tasks will be published and translated to the different mother tongues of the partner institutions, adapted and disseminated as best they can.

Echanges d’expériences et de pratiques dans les maisons de retraite en Europe

Permettre aux différents acteurs travaillant dans les métiers de service dans les maisons de retraite de valoriser leur vie sociale et professionnelle. Grâce à des échanges transnationaux, tous les acteurs pourront acquérir une dimension européenne et internationale. Ce projet entend servir de tremplin à toutes ces personnes afin qu'elles prennent conscience que leurs préoccupations et interrogations se retrouvent dans d'autres pays européens. A travers des échanges de pratiques éducatives et de solutions entre les partenaires du projet, l'objectif commun sera d'aider les personnes travaillant auprès de personnes âgées à avoir envie d'apprendre en se tournant vers les autres pays européens, ainsi que les personnes âgées à être plus autonomes et à ne pas se sentir exclues. Nous viserons à améliorer la qualité des services apportés à ce public et à créer des échanges via Internet. Le projet a pour objectif d'éduquer tout citoyen pour que chacun prenne conscience que tout individu quelque soit son âge a droit à sa place dans la société.

L'apprenant adulte en situation de handicap, dans l'espace européen

Projet axé dans un premier temps sur l'échange entre partenaires européens, des pratiques et modes de prise en charge de la problématique de la réinsertion ou de la prévention de l'exclusion sociale de l'adulte en situation de handicap, quel qu'en soit la nature, avec des difficultés sociales et professionnelles. Cette mise en commun des différentes techniques et expériences dans la prise en charge de la réinsertion doit permettre d'enrichir nos savoir-faire et de créer des outils communs (guide des pratiques en Europe à l'égard du traitement des populations en situation de handicap). Ce projet a également comme objectif de préparer l'apprenant à une plus grande autonomie en participant activement aux échanges européens, en l'intégrant dès la première année dans la mise en place des échanges et dans la participation aux meeting, puis les 2 années suivantes comme acteur principal des échanges d'apprenants dans les pays partenaires. Le projet lui permettra de dépasser sa situation de handicap, de lui redonner confiance afin d'entrer dans une dynamique professionnelle et sociale et de lui permettre une intégration durable et qualifiée. La situation d'handicap, dans l'espace européen, ne doit plus être un frein à l'insertion !

NEWROLE: nouveaux rôles- Prévenir l'exclusion des travailleurs seniors Des études locales conduites par les partenaires du projet ont confirmé que les travailleurs " seniors " affrontent un plus grand risque de se faire exclure du marché du travail que les personnes plus jeunes. Les partenaires sont arrivés à la conclusion que si les travailleurs " seniors " doivent être soutenus, soit pour rester dans leur lieu de travail, soit pour y être réintégrés, les partenaires doivent maintenant se concentrer sur un travail avec des employeurs et d'autres organismes afin de soutenir leurs besoins en formation et en développement. Pour certains partenaires, ceci représente un changement dans leur rôle habituel. Afin de partager et de coordonner les compétences existantes à l'intérieur du groupe, nous continuons à utiliser une méthodologie de recherches sur l'action. Bien que des approches communes envers une conception et un développement des programmes d'apprentissage soient possibles, le partenariat a noté que chacune des organisations partenaires doit subir un processus de changement d'organisation et de développement. Ceci pour répondre aux questions les plus vastes en termes d'éducation, d'organisation et de fonction sociale qui se présentent, afin de garantir que l'organisation de chaque partenaire réponde mieux aux besoins des employeurs et des seniors. La check-list (liste de contrôle) qui est à établir à la fin de la 2e année, constituera la base du développement pour l'organisation que chaque partenaire aura réalisé. Une information reçue très récemment de nos partenaires à l'issue d'une réunion qui s'est tenue à Bruxelles, suggère que notre projet NEWROLE est le seul projet de type GRUNDTVIG 2 qui propose une approche tant individuelle qu'organisationnelle des besoins relatifs aux salariés seniors. Dans ces conditions, les différents partenaires du groupe NEWROLE souhaiteraient explorer tout au long de la 3e année les perspectives d'une application GRUNDTVIG 1. Les recherches actions, le travail autour de la méthodologie, se poursuivront, ainsi que le partage des productions réalisées par le groupe d'expertise.

Insertion professionnelle des gens du voyage en Europe

Le mode de vie des " Gens du voyage " en Europe constitue un obstacle à leur intégration à des sociétés dont les modes de fonctionnement sont très différents des leurs. Les systèmes d'éducation et de formation professionnelle (initiaux ou continus) ne sont généralement pas adaptés à leur fréquentation irrégulière, et ne permettent pas une progression pédagogique normale pour les membres de ces communautés. Ce contexte ne leur permet pas d'élaborer un projet professionnel et donc d'envisager une formation qualifiante. Le problème est encore plus aigu pour les femmes. La finalité de ce projet est de contribuer, par la recherche de nouveaux moyens et de nouvelles méthodes, à améliorer : - le taux de poursuite de la formation au delà de la période obligatoire (notamment en formation professionnelle qualifiante) des jeunes issus de ces communautés. - leur taux de participation aux actions de formation professionnelle continue des adultes (notamment les jeunes adultes de 16 à 25 ans sortis du système scolaire). Les objectifs et activités spécifiques du projet sont : - élaborer et publier des fiches de " Bonnes Pratiques " (accessibles en ligne et imprimables) qui ont amélioré, dans les pays du partenariat, la formation qualifiante et l'insertion professionnelle des Gens du voyage - réaliser et publier une étude consacrée aux besoins particuliers des Gens du voyage en matière d'organisation des systèmes d'éducation et de formation - rechercher les méthodes et outils pédagogiques innovants qui pourraient contribuer à l'élévation du niveau de formation, de qualification et d'insertion professionnelle du groupe cible.

Objectif principal : conduire une réflexion collective sur les méthodes formelles et informelles, traditionnelles et modernes identifiées dans les organisations participantes, visant à prévenir toute forme d'exclusion, qu'elle soit sociale, professionnelle ou ethnique. Il s'agit de permettre à différents groupes cibles en difficulté, recensés au sein des organisations partenaires (chômeurs de plus de 45 ans, prisonniers, immigrés) d'accéder à une citoyenneté active, une plus grande employabilité et une réelle insertion sociale et professionnelle. Les thèmes de réflexion du projet sont les suivants : - Les outils transférables d'une structure à l'autre pour lutter contre l'exclusion - Les stratégies à adopter pour favoriser l'insertion d'un groupe cible : méthodes traditionnelles et/ou modernes, formelles et/ou informelles ? - Le développement personnel et social : l'estime de soi, l'autonomie, la confiance en soi - Les moyens de communication : indentification des stratégies transférables favorisant l'insertion sociale et professionnelle - La formation professionnelle comme facteur d'inclusion.

TIS et sensibilisation des publics à la protection de la nature

La sauvegarde de l'environnement est une préoccupation mondiale qui figure au rang des objectifs majeurs des nations. La Communauté européenne à maintes occasions a inscrit cet impératif parmi ses priorités, tout en prenant en compte la nécessité de valoriser les activités économiques et industrielles dans la logique du Développement Durable. Notre projet s'oriente vers une analyse du rôle des TIC dans la sensibilisation des publics adultes à la protection de la nature. L'étude portera plus précisément sur des territoires géographiques qui présentent la double particularité d'être d'une part des zones sensibles du point de vue des écosystèmes végétaux et animaux et d'autre part des régions à forte fréquentation touristique. Dans cette situation paradoxale, il s'agit de voir comment des intérêts à première vue contradictoires peuvent se concilier tout au moins en partie grâce à l'information et à la formation des publics. Il s'agit d'observer les dispositifs mis en place dans plusieurs pays européens par des structures comme les parcs nationaux et régionaux, les collectivités locales et territoriales, les associations, à destination des visiteurs. Puis, après analyse et comparaison, de procéder à un échange de bonnes pratiques. Cette procédure sera facilitée par la mise au point de fiches, site web, colloque.

Publics défavorisés, pauvreté culturelle et dynamique européenne Le projet vise à créer une dynamique de réflexion pédagogique sur les nouveaux moyens qu'offre un partenariat européen, en termes d'outils éducatifs de mobilisation des publics sur la culture (histoire, géographie, art, etc.) ; sortir nos publics de leur ghetto de pauvreté sociale et culturelle pour les mettre dans des situations d'accès à une vision élargie et à une culture de base vitale pour leur insertion sociale et professionnelle ; développer la curiosité et l'intérêt culturels de nos publics défavorisés, leur permettre un accès minimal à de nouvelles connaissances culturelles, par une implication concrète d'accueil et de participation active dans un partenariat européen ; mettre en valeur leur culture de base fondée sur leur propre vécu, leur milieu d'origine, leur histoire, et leur apprentissage professionnel. Pour les formateurs/éducateurs : réflexions sur les déficiences et régressions culturelles des publics, comparaison des études et moyens mis en oeuvre dans chaque pays ; étude du minimum culturel vital nécessaire à l'insertion des publics, élaboration de pratiques communes de partenariat ; préparation culturelle, linguistique des apprenants en vue des échanges et des perspectives d'opportunités d'expériences européennes d'insertion. Pour les bénéficiaires : connaissance du projet, sensibilisation à cette opportunité culturelle, sociale et d'insertion ; rafraîchissement des acquisitions de base de la culture de leur propre pays dont ils seront les hôtes d'accueil et les ambassadeurs dans les différents échanges ; découverte, approfondissement des caractéristiques culturelles des pays partenaires. Public visé : jeunes et adultes en difficulté d'insertion sociale et professionnelle, jeunes et adultes en situation de réentraînement, d'apprentissage professionnel ; publics sans emploi, en situation de précarité, avec des besoins de guidance, de revalorisation. Compte tenu des lacunes à combler, le projet se déroule sur 3 ans, afin d'obtenir une maturité d'ouverture culturelle de nos publics, opérante en terme d'insertion. - année 1 : Connaissance des partenaires, mise en place des méthodes et outils communs. - année 2 : Etude pédagogique des déficiences, implication progressive d'accueil par les bénéficiaires. - année 3 : Mise en application des acquis culturels des publics par l'accueil et les séjours transnationaux.

Ce projet entend servir de tremplin à ces personnes afin qu'elles prennent conscience que leurs préoccupations se retrouvent dans d'autres pays européens. A travers des échanges de pratiques éducatives et de solutions entre les partenaires du projet, l'objectif commun sera d'aider ces jeunes personnes en difficulté à trouver leur place dans la société, à être plus autonomes et à retrouver une confiance en soi. On visera également à améliorer la qualité des services apportés à ce public et à créer un site Internet qui facilitera échanges et formations. Le projet a pour objectif d'éduquer tout citoyen pour que chacun prenne conscience que tout individu a droit à une place dans la société.

TIC et insertion social des usagers

Cette recherche s'oriente vers une analyse des TIC dans le contexte professionnel et pour les personnes en recherche d'emploi. L'objectif est de concourir à réduire les inégalités sociales par l'intégration des TIC, afin que les usagers réutilisent ces compétences dans leur activité professionnelle et participent ainsi plus activement au développement économique. Notre stratégie consiste à observer et analyser le fonctionnement de structures qui se sont fixé ces objectifs, d'élaborer des préconisations, une modélisation afin d'envisager une diffusion et des applications concrètes dans le contexte régional. Ce projet revêt une dimension internationale en associant 6 laboratoires de recherche européens (Gresic, Ce-Trans, Creatic, IEPB, NT-Lab, ISOL) qui ont chacun des partenaires dans les institutions et entreprises au plan régional et national. Plusieurs réunions les regroupant ont eu lieu à Cesena (septembre 2002), Bordeaux (septembre 2003), Bruxelles (Janvier 2004), Barcelone (juin 2004), Bordeaux (septembre 2004), Bologne (février 2005). Nous avons élargi notre partenariat à 2 pays d'Europe non contigus et présentant la particularité de pratiquer des langues " rares " : la République d'Irlande et la Grèce. Notre objectif est d'approfondir le travail élaboré en commun concernant notamment les axes et méthodologies de recherche, les projets d'action sur les différents terrains, la diffusion des résultats dans la perspective du développement de projet dans le cadre de Grundtvig 1.

L’intégration des immigrants vers une meilleure compréhension et une éducation de qualité dans le cadre d’une coopération européenne

Faciliter l'assimilation des immigrants dans les pays des partenaires. Toutes les institutions des partenaires offrent déjà des formations pour les immigrants. L'objectif principal du projet consiste à fournir des informations sur les systèmes d'éducation pour les immigrants des différents pays et à développer la même approche pour leur intégration. Ce projet permettra également aux professeurs et aux apprenants des pays partenaires de communiquer entre eux et de partager leurs expériences. L'idée consiste à créer un site Internet qui présente les institutions des partenaires, leur(s) programme(s) de formation pour immigrants, des informations sur les législations européennes et nationales concernant le processus d'intégration, un forum de discussion pour les professeurs et les apprenants. Nous prévoyons de mettre en place une Journée de l'Immigration, dite " Journée Interculturelle " dans chaque pays partenaire basée sur des événements spéciaux et des activités créatrices ainsi qu'une possibilité d'échange de professeurs.

Intégration de la diversité dans l'éducation des adultes dans les régions ultra périphériques de l'Europe - IDEARUPE

Nos objectifs sont de travailler ensemble sur des thèmes d'intérêt commun ; de mutualiser, partager les expériences, analyser les méthodes de formation d'adultes ; de sensibiliser à la diversité culturelle, sociale et économique en Europe ; de promouvoir la coopération entre des organismes travaillant sans le domaine de l'éducation pour adultes ; de favoriser l'ouverture au monde et l'accès aux valeurs universelles ; de valoriser la richesse culturelle de sa région. Notre organisme a besoin de bases solides pour identifier les attentes de notre jeunesse et jouer pleinement notre rôle d'accompagnement. Aussi elle se félicite de la création de cet espace de réflexion, d'observation, d'analyse et de pratique commune. Nous avons déjà engagé une coopération avec un pays de la Caraïbe (Trinidad) afin de rapprocher nos jeunes de ceux du bassin environnant pour qu'ils apprennent à se connaître et s'apprécier malgré la différence de langues. Les scolaires et les associations sont invités à nous suivre dans cette démarche d'ouverture. Nous proposons maintenant la coopération avec des organismes de l'Europe afin d'enrichir et de parfaire la vision du monde antillais, européen et plus tard... mondial... Nous aborderons l'analyse et la comparaison des systèmes éducatifs et de formation, les liens entre la communauté éducative / élus, associations.... Stratégies mises en place pour la formation de ceux qui nécessitent une remédiation dans chaque pays. Examen de la situation des jeunes ayant quitté le système éducatif ; une attention particulière pour les 16/25 ans (aspects psychosociologiques).

Let’s Communicate! Migrants, Intercultural Integration through Language in the Host Community

Le principal objectif de Let's communicate! est d'encourager des migrants à apprendre la langue de leur pays d'accueil afin de leur assurer une meilleure intégration. Dans le cadre de ce projet, afin d'assurer la qualité de l'apprentissage, nous souhaitons dans un premier temps que les enseignants engagés dans ce travail échangent des méthodologies alternatives d'éducation linguistiques. Pour ce faire, les enseignants devront se rendre dans les pays partemaires. A ce terme de ce projet, nous souhaitons assurer une meilleure compréhension et appréciation des cultures, des langues, des méthodologies et des besoins des apprenants : migrants et réfugiés. Par ce biais, les enseignants seront donc mieux à même d'enseigner les langues à ce public cible et de les encourager à apprendre la langue du pays d'accueil ; assurant ainsi une meilleure intégration.

Be aware and let's get ready for an inclusive Europe for all!

4 organisateurs de Belgique (Bruxelles), Italie (Sardaigne), France (Rhône-Alpes) et Portugal (Portalegre) travailleront ensemble pour la : 1. "sensibilisation - augmentation de la prise de conscience " (awareness raising) de leurs personnels pour : découvrir d'autres réalités européennes dans le travail d'éducation / formation / insertion de jeunes adultes pas ou peu qualifiés, échanger sur leurs pratiques professionnelles, partager leurs compétences ; 2. " dynamisation-habitation " (empowerment) de leurs organisations pour de futurs projets européens impliquant leurs publics. Les activités consistent dans la réalisation de visites de courte durée auprès de chaque partenaire par 16 personnes (4 par organisations), et la production de matériels (document, CD-R) présentant les réalisations du projet pour diffusion auprès des réseaux locaux / régionaux des organisations. 4 particularités du projet sont : - 4 organisations sont expérimentés dans l'éducation non formelle / la formation / l'insertion de leurs publics cible localement et régionalement ; - 2 organisations (Italie, Portugal) sont situées sur des territoires ruraux isolés et travaillent en réseau avec des organisations locales sur la place de la tradition orale dans la transmission entre générations des savoirs (patrimoine culturel) et compétences (métiers traditionnels) ; - 2 organisations (Belgique, France) font partie de réseaux de Missions Locales travaillant notamment dans des zones périurbaines rencontrant des difficultés d'emploi et de cohésion sociale - les 4 organisations n'ont jamais utilisé l'outil Grundtvig (les 4 utilisent JEUNESSE, 1 utilise LEONARDO, 2 le FSE).

Conter et lire avec les jeunes enfants, c'est apprendre à apprendre, c'est lutter contre les exclusions et construire la citoyenneté européenne

Dans le cadre d'un partage d'expériences à propos de différentes pratiques innovantes autour de conter et lire avec les jeunes enfants impliquant les professionnelles de l'enfance et de la culture (non qualifiées), les bénévoles (personnels non qualifiés) et les familles. Il s'agit d'organiser à partir de contes et albums pour jeunes enfants : - des formateurs de formateurs en direction de ces populations pour leur faire acquérir une qualification liée aux pratiques innovantes spécifiques à chaque partenaire : Contes, Raconte Tapis, Création de livre, Création de vidéos, Kamishbal à partir de contes et d'albums des différents pays partenaires - des groupes de parents et de référents adultes, des jeunes enfants qui participent à des ateliers de contes avec écriture de contes communs aux différents pays, des ateliers de création de livres, des ateliers de création et d'utilisation de Raconte Tapis, des ateliers de création de vidéos à partir d'albums, une sensibilisation de ces différents acteurs à la diversité linguistique. Ces temps de créations et d'échanges permettront, par des démarches innovantes, aux professionnels non qualifiés et aux parents, de s'approprier autrement les albums et de s'inscrire dans une démarche d'apprentissage. De plus, nous développerons une démarche de communication directe en direction des parents des jeunes enfants par l'utilisation de journaux publicitaires gratuits : " journaux toute boîte " en y associant les structures d'accueil. Ainsi, ce projet mettra en évidence comment les activités de création autour des contes et des albums peuvent contribuer au renforcement de la parentalité par le resserrement des liens et des échanges au sein des familles ; de la responsabilisation parentale en permettant aux parents d'être acteur de la création d'objets culturels pour leurs enfants ; des compétences et des motivations des personnels d'accueil de la culture et de la petite enfance (non qualifiés) et des parents, dans une approche de transversalité nécessaire dans la lutte contre les exclusions et l'inscription des adultes non qualifiés dans une démarche d'apprenant. Cette coopération par sa dimension européenne contribuera à sensibiliser les intervenants locaux à la richesse de la diversité des cultures et des langues et participera ainsi à la construction de la citoyenneté européenne.

Développement d'outils et de méthodes pour le respect de la diversité et l'éducation interculturelle dans les lieux d'accueil de la petite enfance

Les responsables de ces 7 organisations travaillent sur des outils et des méthodes pour favoriser un travail autour du respect de la diversité sociale et culturelle et l'éducation interculturelle dans les lieux d'accueil de la petite enfance. Ces outils et ces méthodes ont pour objectif de favoriser un dialogue interculturel entre les familles et les professionnels des lieux d'accueil. Ils ont aussi pour objectif de mettre en place une pédagogie en direction des enfants qui les sensibilisent à la diversité. Ces responsables ont eu l'occasion à travers le réseau DECET d'échanger sur ces outils et méthodes et ont constaté qu'elles étaient complémentaires les unes des autres. Parallèlement, chacun des partenaires a mis en place dans son pays des formations et des actions de sensibilisation pour diffuser ces outils et ces méthodes. Il s'agit par ce programme de permettre aux parents et professionnels bénéficiaires de ces formations de participer à des séminaires européens communs pour analyser ces outils et méthodes, en élaborer d'autres, stimuler leur apprentissage et leur engagement, afin qu'eux mêmes puissent à leur tour transmettre et diffuser ces outils et méthodes. Une approche pédagogique participative et adaptée à chacun sera mise en place pour favoriser la participation active de tous les parents et les professionnels (possibilité d'utilisation des langues maternelles, d'activités artistiques... ). 2 produits seront réalisés : une vidéo et une plaquette présentant ces différents outils. Ces produits ainsi que les résultats seront largement diffusés au sein des pays partenaires et au niveau européen.

Echange sur la Littératie en Entreprise

Un constat du processus de Copenhague paru dans un mémo de décembre 2004 à Bruxelles établit que la proportion élevée de personnes à bas niveau de compétences est plus importante en UE qu'aux USA, au Canada, au Japon, en Australie et en Corée du Sud. Plusieurs connaissances de base nécessaires à une autonomie dans la vie quotidienne et professionnelle. Ces personnes disposent d'autres compétences qui leur permettent de répondre à certaines exigences de leurs environnements mais ils peuvent être rapidement en difficulté s'ils subissent des changements. Il nous paraît donc important de chercher des éléments de réponse avec des partenaires européens. Il s'agit d'un échange autour des pratiques et des méthodes concernant la sensibilisation et la formation des encadrants en entreprises pour le repérage et l'accompagnement des personnes en situation d'illettrisme ainsi que l'articulation entre connaissances de base et situation professionnelle pour les mêmes publics. Cet échange s'appuiera sur la base d'un état des lieux régional chez tous les partenaires transnationaux et permettre la rédaction d'un rapport de synthèse comparatif qui sera diffusé au plan régional chez chaque partenaire.

La dynamique intergenerationnelle

Le monde moderne développe pour chaque génération une culture qui lui est propre. Nous voudrions rechercher dans chacun de nos pays ce qui caractérise la culture de chacune de ces générations, (Génération des 60 ans et +, celle du " baby boom ", celle des 25-40 ans, des 5-25 ans et la toute dernière : 0-5). Pour cela, nous nous sommes fixés les objectifs suivants : - Observer des situations pouvant caractériser l'attitude ou la réponse d'une génération - Enrichir nos réflexions par ces apports mutuels - Proposer des solutions : créer ou recréer des liens entre générations pour aider la dernière génération (celle des 0-5 ans) à se construire.

Partages et échanges interculturels pour l'insertion par la culture et le chant choral

Le patrimoine artistique et musical est riche et souvent mal connu. Dans notre société, les individus vivent souvent de façon isolée pour des raisons professionnelles ou de précarité d'emploi. La pratique d'un art ou d'activités musicales, notamment dans le cadre du chant choral est source de rencontres, d'échanges, de partages qui conduisent les individus à renouer des liens sociaux qui sont porteurs sur le plan social et économique et sources d'enrichissements culturels. L'ouverture aux pays européens et à leurs ensembles artistiques, instrumentaux ou de choristes, permettra aux apprenants et au personnel de s'approprier de nouvelles richesses culturelles, de découvrir un espace élargi de citoyenneté européenne, voire même dans certains cas d'envisager un emploi dans les pays découverts. La réalisation de manifestations artistiques communes, dans chacun des Etats-Membres partenaires, facilitera la création d'un esprit européen, fait de découvertes et de reconnaissance réciproque. Ces manifestations seront médiatisées et les résultats seront diffusés auprès des réseaux des partenaires et de leurs sites web, afin de faciliter les transferts méthodologiques des institutions qui souhaiteraient s'associer aux partenaires et/ou créer leurs propres réseaux. Le succès de ce projet permettrait de développer des réseaux interartistiques, de façon non formelle ou dans le cadre de Grundtvig 1.

Référentiel d'observations en milieu de travail

Depuis 2 décennies, l'ensemble des pays européens développent des outils pour répondre au problème endémique du chômage de longue durée. Les résultats n'ont pas été à la hauteur et la problématique persiste. L'emploi reste donc une priorité au centre des préoccupations des états membres. Ceux-ci ont développé des stratégies d'éducation tout au long de la vie en améliorant la qualité et l'efficacité des systèmes de formation, afin de permettre à tous les individus d'acquérir les compétences nécessaires à une main d'oeuvre moderne. Ainsi, les collectivités territoriales ont développé des dispositifs pour répondre aux difficultés de recrutement exprimées par les milieux économiques et pour surmonter les obstacles de l'insertion des publics fragiles. La juxtaposition de ces différentes politiques en faveur de l'emploi des plus démunis n'a pas permis d'obtenir des résultats significatifs. Dans ce contexte, nous proposons de mettre en oeuvre une réflexion dans le cadre d'un partenariat transnational pour la construction d'outils visant à améliorer les situations actives d'insertion. Notre action devrait déboucher sur une approche et une lecture globale des difficultés rencontrées par les publics ; une lisibilité de l'ensemble des outils d'insertion et de formation existants ; une mutualisation des bonnes pratiques à l'échelon européen ; une proposition des analyses des pratiques professionnelles transnationales ; une démultiplication des compétences, des expériences et des cultures. Au travers de ce projet Grundtvig, nous avons l'ambition d'être une force de propositions pour politiques publiques et pour les décideurs des territoires tant au niveau de projets innovants que par la définition de critères d'évaluation.

Bibliothèque européenne

Oeuvrer concrètement en posant les pierres d'une bibliothèque européenne dans le souci de récolter, diffuser les productions des stagiaires. La place des textes écrits pendant la formation, leur utilisation et leur préservation sont un problème majeur en alphabétisation. Pour valoriser et donner un sens à cette étape d'écriture et de lecture, la mise en ligne est un outil efficace qui permet d'actualiser et diversifier le réservoir de lectures des groupes en formation en fonction des intérêts. Dans une démarche commune d'ateliers d'écriture, la bibliothèque européenne prend en compte toute production écrite quelque soit le niveau du formé pour en faire un outil directement utilisable en cours et à partir duquel se bâtissent des apprentissages. La souplesse de la démarche créatrice incite le stagiaire à devenir curieux et productif. La mise en ligne est une solution réaliste pour la mise à disposition du public à un autre public. Pour cette action nous souhaitons nous appuyer sur une démarche commune. Lors des scénarios et des propositions élaborées en ateliers, repérer et prendre en compte les particularités linguistiques pour les introduire dans des scénarios et fabriquer du texte ciblé facilitant la compréhension d'une langue et l'accès à la structure du texte.

Compétences Actives (COMPACT)

Pour les adultes en recherche d'emploi, l'accès au travail est souvent conditionné par le niveau d'étude et/ou de qualification professionnelle. L'Europe élargie à 25, renforce les incertitudes en terme d'emploi pour les chômeurs peu ou pas qualifiées. De nombreuses études démontrent que le chômage persistant conduit à une perte de confiance durable et une appréciation négative des capacités individuelles. Cependant et pour être compétitifs, ces publics doivent démontrer des compétences actualisées et une réelle adaptabilité... En réponse à cette problématique, ce projet vise à améliorer les chances d'accès à l'emploi des adultes au chômage. Plus précisément, il s'agira de produire de la connaissance pour et avec chaque apprenant, afin d'optimiser l'orientation vers l'offre d'apprentissage existante et/ou à construire. Aussi, le processus d'apprentissage intervient comme une étape conduisant à l'emploi. La dimension européenne permettra la réflexion comparée et le transfert des expériences. La démarche consiste à valoriser des connaissances et des compétences dans un projet professionnel. Les activités prévues sur 24 mois, permettront d'expérimenter auprès des publics cibles, la mise en oeuvre d'outils et méthodes élaborés en partenariat. Les apprenants seront accompagnés par périodes de 6 mois. Le projet s'organisera en 3 phases : 1) conception - élaboration 2) expérimentation 3) évaluation - production.

Echange de pratiques de formation pour les acteurs de la filière agriculture biologique

Dans le cadre du plan d'action européen de 2004 sur l'agriculture biologique, la formation et l'éducation s'avèrent être des leviers indispensables à son développement. Les actions éducatives sur l'agriculture biologique sont nombreuses et diffuses à l'échelle européenne. Cette agriculture ne relève pas exclusivement d'une discipline technique, mais aussi d'une remise en cause de la raison sociale de l'agriculture et de ses modes de pensée. L'agriculture biologique invite à l'innovation dans les actions éducatives. Notre objectif dans le cadre de ce projet s'inscrit sur le long terme, et vise à la mise en place d'un réseau européen d'éducation sur l'agriculture biologique pour l'ensemble des acteurs adultes de cette filière. Ce réseau doit permettre d'organiser une offre éducative, selon des modalités adaptées aux besoins et caractéristiques des publics adultes, et selon des stratégies qui tiennent compte des transitions que suppose le passage à l'agriculture biologique. Le présent projet se veut initier cette démarche. Il s'appuie sur l'organisation d'échanges entre partenaires européens pour expliciter et capitaliser lors d'un séminaire final les pratiques et stratégies des différentes expériences éducatives en agriculture biologique en Europe.

Echanges et bonnes pratiques touristiques en espace rural

Procurer des outils aux populations situées en zones rurales afin qu'ils puissent vivre de la valorisation de leur patrimoine par le biais du tourisme rural. La pertinence des réponses issues de ce partenariat tiendra de la richesse des échanges, assurée par une large diffusion des résultats (publications et événements). L'ouverture du partenariat à des organisations extérieures à " Echanges et bonnes pratiques touristiques en espace rural " est souhaitée pour pallier ses éventuels manques et aboutir à une réflexion et à une mise en place d'actions pertinentes pour les populations rurales et pour les territoires. Les prolongements de l'action du partenariat sont dès lors multiples à la fois pour les populations apprenantes mais aussi pour les territoires (insertion sociale, égalité hommes/femmes, professionnalisation des acteurs, développement durable du territoire).

AMIE (Acteurs Milieu Rural Enfance) : Une formation des acteurs de la vie locale en milieu rural fragile

Ce programme prend place dans le cadre d'une mise en réseau de 3 organisations en Europe (France, Espagne et Portugal) qui se sont données pour objectif de mutualiser et produire des connaissances sur les questions d'éducation, de participation des parents et habitants concourant au développement des territoires ruraux fragilisés. Si des réflexions se mènent dans ces organisations pour autant, il était important de permettre la montée en compétence, l'enrichissement des acteurs eux-mêmes impliqués dans ces territoires ruraux. C'est pourquoi l'objectif de ce programme consiste à former des acteurs (parents, habitants, professionnels petite enfance, socio- professionnels, élus locaux, techniciens des municipalités) agissant dans les territoires ruraux. Pour ce faire, ces formations s'appuieront sur l'appréhension et l'acquisition : - de pratiques de terrain et d'expérimentation au travers de visites et de stages - d'apports théoriques et méthodologiques par le biais de séminaires, forum et publications. La base de ce programme est sa dimension collective : échanges dans un même pays et avec les autres pays, avec des acteurs à différents niveaux afin de mutualiser, d'échanger sur ces méthodes et pratiques. Les différents acteurs sont : - les parents qui renforcent leur capacité auprès des enfants et deviennent responsables associatifs de services à l'enfance créant ainsi des dynamiques dans les territoires ruraux, - les professionnels (éducateurs, professeurs et techniciens des municipalités) qui renforcent leur compétence professionnelle et leur capacité à encadrer et animer des groupes d'enfants et de parents et à créer du lien avec l'environnement local, - les développeurs, coordinateurs et animateurs locaux qui mobilisent les parents, les habitants et les élus locaux en les mettant en relation afin de leur donner la motivation et la capacité d'initier des projets et d'en assumer la responsabilité de fonctionnement dans la durée.

Motiver des jeunes aux métiers de l'artisanat (Artisan'Aventure) L'artisanat, en France, mais aussi dans de nombreux pays européens, souffre depuis plusieurs années d'une dédicace d'image liée aux représentations véhiculées. L'abandon progressif des formations techniques au profit de formations générales, les conditions de travail difficiles, les niveaux de rémunération peu attractifs et les difficultés d'installation pour les jeunes sont autant de raisons qui expliquent le désengagement des jeunes dans ce secteur professionnel. Bien qu'étant encore à ce jour considéré comme la 1ère entreprise de France (si l'on considère le nombre de salariés qui y travaillent), le secteur de l'artisanat doit faire face, d'une part à un manque de main d'oeuvre qualifié, d'autre part à la disposition progressive d'entreprises, du fait du non remplacement du chef d'entreprise à son départ en retraite. Cette situation est d'autant plus dramatique en secteur rural, car la disparition d'activités en milieu rural contribue au déséquilibre économique. C'est une situation que nous rencontrons notamment en Alsace (Pays de Saverne Plaine et Plateau). Selon la Chambre Régionale de l'Artisanat, seuls 12% des créateurs d'entreprise sont âgés de moins de 25 ans. Cette préoccupation est identique sur l'ensemble du territoire européen (les échanges effectués avec nos partenaires au projet le confirment) et nous souhaiterions, au travers de ce projet, proposer une démarche commune. Dans un premier temps, il convient d'échanger et de mettre en commun les méthodes pratiques et outils qui sont utilisés et connus des uns des autres, et qui amènent les jeunes à s'intéresser aux métiers de l'artisanat. Ces échanges avec nos partenaires ayant tous de l'expérience dans l'orientation et la guidance porteront sur : l'image du travail artisanal en Europe (valeurs, conditions de travail, place, reconnaissance..), les stratégies de motivation pour amener les apprenants à s'orienter vers ces métiers, l'organisation des parcours éducatifs. Les échanges permettront de construire ensemble une action " prototype " qui sera testée et évaluée la 2ème année. Dans un second temps, nous organiserons des échanges de formateurs et d'enseignants ainsi que d'apprenants. Enfin, pour accompagner ces échanges, nous créerons un site Internet (présentation des partenaires, diffusion des informations, forum net liens) et pour diffuser les résultats, nous proposerons l'organisation d'une manifestation finale, rassemblant les acteurs locaux et les partenaires.

CINEMAVILLE-EUROPE

Ce projet propose : - d'organiser des séminaires pour comparer et échanger les différentes pratiques pédagogiques en prenant en compte les sensibilités diverses (culturelles, sociales, économiques) des partenaires - de réunir des partenaires travaillant dans le domaine de l'enseignement pour jeunes et adultes afin de permettre (dans une 2ème phase) la mise en oeuvre du projet CINEMA-EUROPE - de développer des actions communes avec les pays partenaires - de comparer les différentes expériences - de procéder à des échanges entre les différents groupes - de définir une méthodologie commune pour la réalisation du projet CINEMAVILLE Les résultats de cette étude serviront de base au projet final dont le contenu succinct est le suivant : Dans plusieurs villes d'Europe, des groupes de jeunes racontent leurs histoires, écrivent leurs scénarios et tournent les films correspondants. Préalablement à cette action, les stagiaires reçoivent une formation initiale dont le contenu sera adapté aux habitudes pédagogiques et à la sensibilité de chaque pays, mais dont le fond sera commun à chaque action. Une grande manifestation annuelle (2 journées) sera organisée, durant laquelle, stagiaires, pédagogues, représentants des organismes et institutions publics, représentants des médias, seront réunis. Au cours de cette manifestation, tous les films seront présentés au public par les stagiaires eux-mêmes. Cette manifestation pourra se tenir chaque année dans un pays différent.

Europe festivart

Le principe selon lequel les hommes doivent apprendre à se connaître et à échanger leurs valeurs pour mieux se comprendre, s'accepter et coexister, est à la base de ce partenariat visant à promouvoir le multiculturalisme de l'Union Européenne par le biais de l'apprentissage formel et informel. Il s'agit de permettre à tout apprenant et groupe de la communauté locale d'exprimer leur identité culturelle et leurs traditions, de les partager et de les échanger en utilisant les moyens d'information et de communication (journal écrit, internet, visioconférence et autre support) mais également à travers des visites et séminaires. Le projet comprend l'organisation d'un festival européen des arts et traditions qui se tiendra sous forme d'ateliers artistiques, animations culturelles, exposition et autre spectacle pour promouvoir les arts locaux, l'artisanat, le folklore, la gastronomie de différents pays d'Europe. Ce projet contribuera à la construction de passerelles interculturelles entre les populations et à une meilleure prise de conscience par les citoyens de leur appartenance à une même communauté, à la sensibilisation à la diversité culturelle des pays de l'Union. Il s'attachera à pérenniser les liens et contacts pour garantir le dialogue interculturel en Europe à travers des actions futures.

Participation locale, engagement citoyen et intégration des immigrés

Etant donné que l'Union Européenne accore beaucoup de crédit à l'Education des Adultes tout au long de la vie et qu'il est essentiel d'intégrer les Nouvelles Technologies dans la société de l'information et de la connaissance, notre projet consiste en l'Alphabétisation Numérique dans l'Education des Personnes Adultes pour que les citoyens puissent améliorer et actualiser leur formation tant sur le plan académique que numérique. Ce projet se réalisera au travers d'échanges d'expériences et de connaissances, de visites et de réunions où il sera possible d'observer les stratégies utilisées dans le cadre de cette thématique, les différentes réalités culturelles et sociales de chaque institution ainsi que les méthodes utilisées. Grâce à ces connaissances, les participants pourront enrichir leur formation professionnelle tout en améliorant leur travail professionnel. Il s'agit en somme d'apprendre à être partenaire, à coopérer et à échanger de sorte que tous les citoyens bénéficient des mêmes chances et puissent s'adapter de façon positive aux changements économiques et sociaux, ceci en vue de participer directement à la construction de la future Europe.

Des agriculteurs, acteurs de leur environnement professionnel, social et culturel

Le thème propose de mettre les hommes et les femmes du monde agricole, au coeur de la réflexion sur leur environnement professionnel et extra-professionnel. Le 1er objectif est d'identifier et de comparer le fonctionnement des organisations professionnelles. L'histoire, l'économie fournissent des éléments majeurs pouvant expliquer l'organisation de la profession à travers l'Europe. Le projet se propose également de replacer l'agriculteur dans son environnement social. La population agricole est souvent le moteur de la vie locale et rurale. Sous quelles formes cette dynamique se traduit-elle ? Les évolutions de l'agriculture en Europe vont-elles modifier cet équilibre ? Ces réflexions doivent inciter les agriculteurs à être acteurs de leur environnement. Enfin, l'image véhiculée par l'agriculture sera abordée. Analyser le regard et les attentes de la population est un point essentiel de la réflexion afin de positionner l'agriculteur dans la société nationale et européenne. L'Europe élargie a fait naître des attentes, quelquefois des craintes sur l'avenir de l'agriculture. Des rencontres et des témoignages permettront de découvrir les diverses facettes de l'agriculture européenne, les similitudes et complémentarités des modes de vie et de lutter contre des idées reçues.

Compétences pour les entreprises et les personnes en recherche d'emploi

Tous les partenaires de ce projet partagent un même constat dans leurs différents contextes locaux et nationaux. Même si des services et des projets réussis ont été et sont menés dans le champ du conseil et de l'orientation socioprofessionnelle par ces partenaires, ils se retrouvent face à de nouveaux défis. En effet, le développement, au niveau européen de la culture de formation tout au long de la vie implique la création de nouveaux outils, approches et comportements de la part de tous (salariés, entreprises, services d'orientation et de conseil, agences de l'emploi, centres de formation, etc.). Des changements dans les méthodes de travail, de nouvelles méthodes d'apprentissage, de nouvelles manières d'évaluer les compétences et les formations ainsi que la reconnaissance des compétences acquises sont à appréhender et à prendre en compte dans les pratiques professionnelles de chacun. 2 objectifs principaux : - organisation d'échanges et de production d'outils sur et pour les différentes méthodologies et méthodes de conseil et d'orientation socioprofessionnelle aux personnes en recherche d'emploi ou aux personnes souhaitant changer d'orientation socioprofessionnelle (en incluant le bilan et la validation de leurs compétences dans les différents cadres de loi des pays partenaires). - organisations d'échanges et de production d'outils sur et pour le travail qui doit être mené avec les entreprises (spécialement les PME/PMI) pour mieux identifier les compétences dont elles ont besoin et être capable de mieux conseiller les personnes en recherche d'emploi ou celles désireuses d'un changement d'orientation socioprofessionnelle. Au premier niveau seront impliquées les professionnels de l'orientation socioprofessionnelle et les personnes qui travaillent avec les entreprises pour développer des réseaux et des coopérations entre elles et avec elles. Au deuxième niveau seront impliqués les entreprises elles-mêmes et les personnes en recherche d'emploi ou de réorientation socioprofessionnelle dans les années suivantes de ce projet qui aura une durée de 3 ans. Les activités proposées seront des visites d'études entre pays partenaires et des séminaires. Les productions seront des boîtes à outils communes (newsletters, étude de cas et guide de bonnes pratiques).

TIC-TAC (technologies de l'Information et de la Communication - Technologies Adaptées aux Chercheurs d'emploi

Le terme de Technologies de l'information et de la communication (TIC) couvre un large éventail de services, applications, technologies, équipements et logiciels (outils comme la téléphonie et l'Internet, l'apprentissage à distance, les télévisions, les ordinateurs, les réseaux et les logiciels nécessaires pour employer ces technologies). L'appropriation des TIC nécessite la mise en place de politiques volontaristes dans le secteur de l'éducation/formation/insertion afin d'éviter qu'un fossé ne se creuse entre " ceux qui savent " et " les autres ". Au delà de ce constat évident, il s'agit aussi, dans un monde où les TIC sont devenues des outils de travail et de communication incontournables d'éviter que les méthodes d'enseignement, les modes de communication et les activités de consommation en ligne posent des obstacles supplémentaires à l'intégration des personnes défavorisées ou en situation de recherche d'emploi. Donc, les technologies recèlent un potentiel énorme peu exploité en matière d'insertion socioprofessionnelle, qu'il vaut la peine de stimuler et de valoriser par une " alphabétisation technologique ". Les partenaires de ce projet échangeront et expérimenteront au travers de visites d'étude et de séminaires sur des méthodes pédagogiques d'enseignement des TIC pour favoriser les parcours d'insertion socioprofessionnelle et pour développer et assurer des méthodologies et moyens d'apprentissage tout au long de la vie. Des échanges thématiques (citoyenneté, mixité, éducation) entre stagiaires et personnel pédagogique permettront à ceux-ci d'expérimenter ces TIC, tandis que les formateurs pourront ainsi affiner les outils et méthodes développées.

MELT (Methodologies in Education for Learners and Tutors

This project was developed by the partner organisations during a contact seminar in Bratislava from 12th to the 15th June 2003. The aim of this project is to explore adult education for people with intellectual disabilities*. The project will produce a framework of good practice in adult education provision with a specific focus on the appropriate methodologies for learners with intellectual disabilities. The project focuses on "improving the content and delivery of adult education" as set out by the Commission in the Call for Proposals under the Annual Action-specific Priorities for Grundtvig Learning Partnerships. The project will achieve this outcome through a series of workshops and through a process of joint reflection of adult learners with intellectual disabilities and adult education tutors. The project will place the adult learners at the centre of the process through joint consultation and encouraging critical reflection. The project involves partners from the formal and non-formal sectors of adult education thus promoting interaction between the sectors. The inclusion of a partner from an EU Accession State (Slovakia) enhances the project's capacity to promote mutual awareness between existing and future EU Member States. *THROUGHOUT THIS PROJECT WE WILL USE THE TERM "INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES" TO INCLUDE ALL LEARNERS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES, INCLUDING LEARNERS WITH BRAIN DYSFUNCTIONS.

MENPART - Men and Non-formal Education - Participating and Social Skills

Since men's participation in adult education activities throughout Europe is low, new approaches are needed to reach men. This project aims to research men's participation in education primarily on an informal or basic skills level. We intend to look at what attracts men into the education field. The research projects' starting point is to look at what educational programmes are provided for men and their participation levels are in other countries as well. This research will be compared by the learning partners. We will then analyse the result on a European basis. This will give us an overall indication of what men's interests are in different countries and what is being provided educationally for men. This will give us an overall indication of what information about the uptake of men in adult education courses. We also intend to examine if men's educational needs are being met. The learning partner's will collate this data and make it available to others. We then intend to produce a document of Good Practice which will inform workers in the adult education field about the models of education which will encourage men's participation. This primary goal of this learning partnership is to examine men's current participation level in education and to see how their participation level can be improved.

Dialogue Through Tradition

The project seeks to provide a learning experience of the traditional arts. Arts education affords a learning opportunity that transcends language. Barriers are broken down through music, dance etc. Adults of varying abilities and experience will enjoy and learn from this experience. It is a two part learning process. Initially facilitators will learn about other countries creative traditions. Following this these facilitators will offer this learning to the wider community in their home country. The adult learners will be provided with learning of partner country's traditional creativity in the areas of music song, dance and folk art of other countries. The adult learner participants will vary from country to country. The project will have a learning process that includes, experiencing different cultures, learning the traditional music, dance and folk-art of partner countries, passing on this learning to an identified adult group in home countries e.g. isolated geographical area, socially isolated population, senior citizens etc. Possibility of an end presentation of learning experience to share learning about other cultures through music, dance song and folk art, produce a DVD and a website to share the learning experience and evaluate the effectiveness of the project.

SUITCASE Sharing Understanding of Identity Through Culture, Art and Self Expression Citizenship

‘Identity’ as a concept has been undergoing a number of changes over the last few decades on both a social and cultural level. Factors such as opening the European borders, migration, the accelerated technological development and the broad distribution of new communication resources influenced these changes SUITCASE aims to work with adult learners in exploring these concepts on a personal, local/regional and European level, in order to promote mutual understanding and enable new forms of cultural exchange. Each partner will set up a Project Working Group incorporating staff and learners. The primary activities of the group will be an art exchange facilitated by workshops in which learners create artefacts under a theme of culture and identity and then send them to learners in partner countries. The receivers are then tasked with responding to the piece with an artwork of their own. Information on the sender’s culture will be intrinsic to the piece as art is always in some way a reflection of the culture that creates it. Transnational visits will also play an important role in the project and will involve both staff and learners in group meetings, exchange of experience and expertise, engagement in cultural activities and foreign language

LinxXchange

The main aim of the LinxXchange project is to promote an increased awareness of other cultures through language learning. The project arose following a Grundtvig contact seminar in Murcia, Spain: INTERCULTURAL LEARNING IN ADULT EDUCATION (May 2004). One split into groups where partner countries identified their areas of expertise, the area of language learning and ICT in particular was identified as a common weakness by all partner countries, which had the potential to open up new intercultural teaching and learning opportunities for adult educators and learners. LinxXchange aims to use ICT as a tool to engage students & staff in language learning through the development of a on-line newsletter that can be accessed and updated by students in participating countries. Students will be encouraged to write articles on an aspect of their culture in one of the languages they are studying, to then be submitted to the newsletter. In undertaking this activity the LinxXchange project will directly contribute to the key theme identified as a Grundtvig action, namely to "improve adult learners' knowledge of European languages and cultures". The project will also improve the content and delivery of language teaching and learning, which is cited as a priority area for Grundtvig projects.

Alternative jobs using creativeness

The Project has two main goals: to rediscover and to bring out local handicrafts and to compare and exchange cultural knowledge and experiences among the learners of the partner countries. In the first year, students will do a research project about their own culture's origins, history and handicrafts. The learners will visit studios, interview artisans and then describe the tools, techniques and the materials used. At the end, they will record all documents produced (slides, photos, video, boards, interviews, learners' opinions . . .) on a CD ROM and insert into a web site and in brochures. The partner learners will exchange and compare this material to find similarities and differences between their traditions (pottery, for example.)

Democratic Arts for Citizenship The project joins different Institutions who work both In the field of the citizenship and the education in order to make the people aware of 1) their potential as citizens (rights and duties); 2) their role in the specific community in which they live; and in order to make them able to “read”, interact and transform the local realities. The project intends to reach these goals through a wide choice of activities such as the “Theatre of the Oppressed by August Boal” or the traditional theatre, arts and photography, courses and meetings, workshops, fieldworks and more. Through this partnership we would like to learn different ways of approaching the young adults and adults so that they take part in the public/political life. At the end of the project we want that all the people involved in it – teachers and learners – choose a specific and practical action of public relevance, do it as a test of people democracy. In addition, we expect the young adults find a space of participation to the community life through which to speak to the local Institutions.

SPALL - Strategies for promoting adult immigrant participation to the Life long learning

In this project educational strategies to promote the involvement of immigrants in the life long learning will be exchanged and further developed. Respect will be paid to the variety of exemplary concepts, which have arisen in European countries out of different historical, political, economic and social situations in intercultural dialogues, new perspectives will be won and synergy effects aimed for. Life long learning for immigrants offers “a better chances of freedom and citizenships feeling” beyond the demands and obligations of the labour market. It opens chances for a self-determined life for a weak sector of the society, in the sense of further personal development and social integration. The immigrants involvement in LLL (life long learning) is a key aspect for immigrant integration and the arising of a feeling of citizenship in the hosting country. Through the strategies exchanged will be possible to enhance the quality of the adult educational centres for immigrants offers, being more attractive from an immigrant point of view even for an improving of the personal skills and abilities, but mainly for the knowledge of the unwritten society rules and expectations. Empowerment strategies offer frameworks, concepts and methods for responsible finding of forms of involvement.

Museums tell many stories – The use of museum collections to promote interculturality The idea behind the project “Museums tell many stories” is that of using museum collections, objects and artefacts to promote multiculturality as well as interculturality and to enhance ways of looking at the cultures represented in a museum (often the dominant ones) from different perspectives and viewpoints. Provided that museum objects can tell stories about the culture which originates them in very many different ways, depending on how they are interpreted and put into a context, the project aims at developing the competencies of the personnel in charge of museum education to provide them with the skills needed to develop the narrative related to museum items, to communicate it to the public, to involve the public itself in activities of story telling and engage it in meaning making processes related to the collections. - The impact of the project in terms of multicultural learning derives from the fact that the focus will be on two main aspects:interpreting “foreign” objects to local audiences (therefore bringing out elements to encourage and support intercultural education and communication) - interpreting/mediating objects belonging to our culture/cultural heritage to audiences of a different cultural background and different ethnic groups. The project will consist mainly in the organisation of meetings, seminar and study visits involving the partners and other adult learners/museum educators with the objective of sharing experiences and developing models of good practice.

PORTFOLIO

Actuellement beaucoup de personnes qui s'inscrivent aux cours de formation professionnelle ou aux cours pour l'obtention de titre de étudie, ont des vieilles expériences que, si documentées, peuvent constituer crédit pour la continuation des études et référence pour le monde du travail. Le projette entend mettre à point un formulaire partagé entre tous les partenaires sur lesquels faire paraître, justement, adresse et expériences précédents, ainsi que certifier les compétences acquises dans le segmente de formation en cours et leur utilisation dans le monde du travail et dans le monde de l'instruction/formation. La majorité des États de l'EU a déjà rédigé des épreuves de travail sur les standards: on traite donc de amalgamer les attentes de chaque Pays et partager une format reconnaissable dans toute l’ Union ainsi comme il a été fait, par exemple, avec le curriculum vitae européen.

Development of Competences and Methodologies in the field of Adult Education with the focus on ICT.

This project has as first aim to give the teachers/trainers of the partner institutions involved new chances for increasing and improving their professional competencies in the field of adult education and to offer to the Institutions\Schools, involved in adult education and vocational training, methodological support to effect innovation in teaching-learning methods through the use of ICT. Schools face new tasks: they need to become active interlocutors for Regional Centers and Institutions involved in Life-long Learning and play a new role in the study and elaboration of Methods and Best Practices to be used in this field. The Schools will be able to give a contribution to the development of an Educational Network for Adult Education, which will be of great cultural importance for disadvantaged areas. On the basis of a regional analysis the project will offer new chances to improve and enhance the Specific Educational Offer of each institution involved and will allow the direct exchange and confrontation of didatic practices, planning of activities, training in other institutions (seminars and workshops), thanks to the mobility of teachers inside the partnership, the use of new means of communication and information.

E.D.O.L. (European Digital Older Learners)

Overall aim of the project: create a collaborative e-learning environment where all the learners can acquire and improve their digital skills, and seek innovation and best practices in the delivery of E-Learning and digital communication. Developments in new technologies, especially computing and telecommunications will transform the opportunities available for adult learners. They will make some forms of learning more accessible to some people, but may risk excluding those who do not have access to computers or who lack confidence to use them. The project would suggest that learning how to use a computer may help to compensate for some of the problems and conditions which commonly accompany older age. Ageism can lead to the social exclusion of older people, particularly if we understand “social exclusion” to mean more than a simple lack of economic resources. Age is a major discriminating factor in computer use in many countries: demographic researches today show that there are more elderly people in society than ever before, but the number of older old people using computers is nevertheless small compared with other age groups. The project aims to identify/study the needs of older in order for them to take part in the evolving Digital or Information society and investigated appropriate ways of meeting those needs.

A trip to the roots of Europe: sharing culture and traditions with the help of New Information Technologies Having established the grounds for a project based on sharing culture and traditions with the Grundtvig 2 project of the year 2004- 2005, the present project is the actual building of a net of mutual cooperation between the institutions involved in the development of the project. In the first stage of the project we’ll give a step further in the process of studying history, culture and local traditions, sharing it through a common space online which will allow us to learn from each partner institution simultaneously. Likewise, the present project will mainly focus on the personal contact among students through direct contact with weblog, email, mailing list, videoconferencing and the consideration of an eventual personal contact, with the objective of reinforcing the main subject worked along the current year, and which was transmitting and sharing as a base for respect and tolerance. Finally and in the same way as the year before, a material to be shared will be built with the help of all the learners of all partner institutions, material which will lead us to show , explain and understand our own roots and consider them as part of the common reality of the Europe of the 21st century.

ECOATTITUDE The aim of the learning partnership is to study a social and professional integration model addressed to disadvantaged adult learners. Partners will focus in particular on methodologies used to develop a certain “eco-sensibility”, as the exclusion of these people is also due to a lack of social and environmental integration. The main result is an innovative training path where beneficiaries will be educated through a new approach to nature and their environment. In this way disadvantaged people will self-include themselves in the community through the acquisition of new social and professional skills. They will be opened to a wider space made of innovation and renewing of practices. They will develop a personality more direct and responsible towards the Community, thus improving their self esteem, as members of a whole. Through the transnational meetings, partners, governmental and private, coming from different countries, will compare their points of view on the reciprocal integration processes and exchange their own local best practices and methodologies on the social inclusion and teaching techniques for disadvantaged people

BLENDED LEARNING FOR ADULTS The project is focused on Learning Distance for adult and it wants to realise an exchange of best practices and valid experiences about this topic among the member of the Learning Partnership. En particular the project will select “practical example” that represent a good case about how E-learning and Blended Learning can be used as instruments to be involved in the adult education. The maturity of E-learning and its diffusion need more and different answer able to adapt the technologies potential to the learning purposes. E-learning brings up several problems already known by the learning world and the project offers the chance to find and to test new answers such as: Internet platforms; co-operative learning; the mix among distance learning, tutoring and workshops; the mix among online learning, the use of Cd-Rom and DVD, TV instruments, books and workshops; opportunities and options to customise learning process, the certification of results achieved, blended learning for adults, blended and distance learning for disadvantaged people The comparison with several experiment, different experiences and different typologies seems to be really important. The project wants to select and put together the best has been done till now about E-learning and would like to realise a significant synthesis that could be reconsidered and extended in future projects through the network support.

TELLING EUROPE - Stories’ network for matching different European culture Project is based on two assumptions: ¾ The existence, in various European countries, of archives that keep individual memories and institutions which work in “Culture memories” promotion field. ¾ The usefulness of creating an iter of sharing and diffusion of those memories, also for the purpose of increasing an idea of European citizenship. Project consists in linking groups of citizens who every year develop a research on memories kept in archives. This above mentioned research, will always be connected to a common topic, chosen within the relevant topics of European citizenship. Meetings in the different countries participating to the project would also be arranged in connection with the territorial work, with the aim of coordinating work groups and increasing a network that may continue to develop even after the project ended

Diversity and Identity of European people - DIEP

Diversity is a great value because it represents our historical memory, our culture, the origin of the progress. Studying the concept of diversity we have developed tolerance, multicultural education, promoted peace and friendship among European countries. However, identity can be a dangerous concept because, frequently in the past, it has been the origin of contrasts and wars, but also the origin of Home, legality, and welfare. Our Home is now Europe, therefore we have to study European identity in all its aspects otherwise we would only have a technical union, thus losing the best part of our own culture. Some months ago we signed the European Constitution in Rome, now we have to build the European people, otherwise this Fundamental Law could become a chart and not the Chart. We think that European identity will grow around 2 angular stones: knowledge and work so our project intends: 1) To develop the employability and adaptability of our students/workers 2) To improve the formative offer of our schools 3) To improve the net knowledge in didactic environment. 4) To test the process of cooperative learning, using ICT among different people 5) To contribute in giving to the workers an effective/real right to work in any country of the EU.

L.I.S.T.E.N. Lifelong Info on Studies and Training for Educational Needs The project aims to trace the motivations which drive adult learners coming from different experiences and situations to start school again, and so to develop and increase the motivation to learning of disadvantaged adults ( young people socially marginalised, unemployed, people in prison etc.) and to improve the professional skills and competence of the teachers through the exchange of good practice. In the first year the teachers will meet twice and will create a portfolio with the information of their experiences. The experiences of the teachers, dealing with innovative approach, solution of particular problems, particularly motivating methodologies etc. will be presented during a seminar and will be collected in a CD-Rom or in another suitable form, in English. This will encourage the teachers to use their abilities in the use of the technical equipment and of the English language, both essential in school today. During the second year the methodology of biography will be used to motivate and encourage adult learners in their learning path. They will be invited to write their personal stories as adult learners. Every partner will choose 3-4 stories that will be translated in English and collected in a CD-Rom. The students will compare their experiences in a workshop during a meeting. In every meeting the hosting partner will organise the educational visits and will invite experts to talk on social aspects in adult education.

DEAF ARE NOT DEAF

Analysis in project partner countries regarding the situation of the deaf and hard of hearing people shows that the difficulties are quite similar in all partner countries to enable the dialogue between deaf and hearing people. In some old EU countries, e.g. Ireland, there are good solutions of the problem found, but in new EU member states the problems of deaf people considering good social communication and lifelong learning are very actual. The integration of deaf people into community as well as into labour market is still complicated. The problem is even more acute in rural areas, regions and countryside. Deaf and hard of hearing people are a very special and reserved part of community, which need to be accepted and motivated in and by the community. The main target audience is the leaders and workers of NGO-s and other organisations working with deaf and hard of hearing people. During the implementation of the project the target group will be acquainted with the conditions and background of the work of the Irish Health Service Executive, his social partners and other organisations in partner countries. The long-term objectives are improving the position of deaf and hard of hearing people in the community, helping them to break out of social isolation and developing social skills by improving their basic competences for better participation in society, and to help deaf and hard of hearing people enable their dialogue with the hearing world. During the project some partners will research the situation of young adult deaf people, to clarify the main problems and to work out the proposals of solution for new EU member states on the basis of experience of old EU member states. Our aim is to help citizens with special needs to take full advantage of the benefits that new information technology can offer them as a factor of social integration and improvement of their quality of life.

VIRTUAL MUSEUM AS INNOVATIVE TOOL FOR ADULT EDUCATION (VMIT)

An analysis of the situation in partner countries shows that museums working in association with adult education institutions have a significant contribution in creating knowledge society based on principles of learning partnership and the use of modern information technologies. The project meets a number of objectives that are essential in creating a strong partnership/cooperation among small-scale partners from France, Italy, Malta, Greece, Lithuania and Latvia. Expanding the role of historical/ cultural heritage in adult education at European, national, regional and local level is foreseen. The gathering and mutual exchange of information and experience about two aspects of adult education in the partner countries: historical/cultural heritage and availability of modern information technologies for needs of adult learners will be addressed. In addition to this the use of newest developments of ICT in adult education/ artistic-cultural organisations (museums, specialized schools, organizations of adult education, library stocks, funds, associations and other) practise will be analysed and performed. A main effort will be to make a strategy of development for the innovative management of a museum. Strengthening the links among the museums, adult education organizations, artistic- cultural organizations, local authorities, NGO, and senior associations will be a natural development.

Seniors On Stage

The main aim of this project is to bring seniors creativity to society. We choose theatre as a tool using it to reach this aim. During this project seniors will be introduced to the basics of theatre, they will get a chance to talk about their problems on a stage.

TO LEARN TO PROGRESS The main target of the project is to share experiences and models of good practices in the not regulated vocational training of young and adult people who are in the situation of social disadvantage with exclusion risk and with labour insertion difficulties. According to the present necessities of the rural zones, the project will be based on the not regulated vocational training that affects the impulsion of new occupations related to the conservation and involution of the environment as a resource for the sustainable development of these zones. In order to achieve these goals, the learning partnership will develop a process in which the participants exchange experiences about the training strategies used with these target groups, with the purpose of obtaining a flexible method of learning that optimises its educational process, improves professional competences and qualifications, improves the basic social abilities of participants and facilitate their labour insertion. The strong and weak points of the pedagogical methods used in the not regulated vocational training of each region or country will be analysed. In the analysis, special emphasis will be put on the pedagogical methods that use Information and Communication Technologies as a resource or tool to obtain the education-learning process and the labour insertion objectives. As result of the project, a compendium of pedagogical methods will be elaborated to collect the good practices detected in the analysis. This compendium will allow obtaining the fixed objectives.

SPORTIVE LEARNING PARTNERSHIPS

The central learning question in the ‘Sporting Chance Partnership’ is: “In what way can a sporting environment contribute to learning activities?” The initiators established support centres at local sports venues for young people, who are socially disengaged and underachieving. This project provides an alternative means by which they can access the environment of their ‘stars’ and feel connected with a potent symbol of the local community. The challenge is to create physical locations that utilise this brand image and to use learning methods that engage and motivate. The locations can be within or related to the sporting venue. Teachers have to create assignments that utilise these ‘new’ learning environments in a meaningful way. Managers need to link these approaches to local political organisation so that the opportunities can be expanded and sustained. To this effect each partnership involves representation from key authorities. ICT is a key tool to the success of the project. In the Learning Partnership new and ‘old’ partners will discuss opportunities and share their findings and experiences. We want to explore how the concept can be improved and developed to include new audiences and new approaches. We want to create a European wide learning network based on ‘Sporting Chance’ partnerships, utilising the power of new technology to support effective communication. In this way we hope to identify non-traditional sources of funding and provide alternative approaches to teaching and learning for groups that have become disconnected from mainstream provision. It will also identify methods and ideas that can be implemented for the benefit of all learners. The involvement of political organisations will help to ‘cement’ the concept within local planning and administration.

FROM MIGRANT TO EUROPEAN CITIZEN

The project “From Migrant to European Citizen” is aiming to prepare migrants from Turkey better for their new life in a West- European society. Therefore learners and teachers are brought in contact in order to exchange experiences and examples of good practice. Together the actors in this project will investigate what existing materials and methods (for learning a new language and knowledge of society) used in their country are successful; teachers will exchange expertise and learners will become more aware of their role as European citizen, because they get a realistic view on their new country, its inhabitants and values. Learners will learn from each other by talking together frequently, using MSN (computer chatting). They can share their experiences and help new migrants to learn about their new country. They will also visit each other’s countries, in order to complete the picture. Teachers will visit each other’s classes, learn from their methods, and learn to understand each other’s values, way of life.

IMMIGRATION PROFESSIONALS EXPERIENCE INTEGRATION IN TURKEY (IPEIPIT) This project arises from the serious need to tackle the issue how to understand and deal with other cultures. The integration of European professionals in the real world of immigrants has been taboo. The aim of this project is to develop a wide network of European countries dealing with integration policies and integration of minorities. The involvement of professionals in this learning partnership project will be an eye-opener to realize that while making an integration policy program for immigrants one should first focus on the needs and expectations of the people who will work with the target group. For a well prepared integration means not only dismantling of the barriers which prevent many immigrants from participating in local cultural life, but also enabling policy makers and educators to understand easily what are the needs and wishes of the target group. The main objectives are: - To raise awareness of the importance of this issue as a tool for implementing the intercultural competence; - To increase the motivations of educators and policy makers involved in this integration field through their involvement in this project; - To establish a network for European discussion on the intercultural competence. The target groups are policy makers, educational researchers, educational institutions that are involved in integration programs. Expected outputs: a conference, video, handbook, documentation, a network and further project proposal. The last forum in The Netherlands will focus on the presentation of the video and on issues of good practice. All interested parties will attend.

ALIA, ADULT LEARNERS IN ARTS

The ALIA (Adult Learners in Arts) project aims at bringing in contact European adult learners who are attending informal / non-formal courses in the fine arts (painting, drawing, sculpture). These easy-to-enrol courses are often the start of further education in the framework of lifelong learning. Contacting each other and exhibiting their pieces of arts, they will discover that extra skills are needed. This will encourage learners to attend new courses: IT courses, language courses, (cultural) history courses. Extra skills the learners will develop in this project: - making use of internet based communication platforms - language skills - knowledge of cultural history of their home country and of the participating countries - organising and exposition Pieces of art made by the students as well as an introduction into the highlights of their national arts history are put on a web based platform (www.aliaproject.info) and are exposed in the participating countries. Mobility of students will be used to attend lessons in other countries. The learning partners (staff) will discuss in this project how to bring the adult learners from informal / non-formal education in arts to formal education and collect their good practices.

LANDMARK

Dieses Projekt soll mit verschiedenen Methoden der Erwachsenenbildung Personen in strukturell benachteiligten ländlichen Regionen den Zugang zu Wissen über ihren Naturraum und Kunst ermöglichen, wobei eine aktive Beteiligung der Lernenden wichtig ist. Die Regionen, in denen das Projekt stattfinden soll, zeichnen sich durch besonders schützenswerten Naturraum aus. Dies ist jedoch der Bevölkerung oft nicht bewusst bzw. birgt Konfliktpotential in sich, weil es kaum ausreichend Information dazu gab. Durch das Wissen um die Wichtigkeit und die Schönheit „ihres“ Naturraumes sollen einen neue Wertigkeit und Stolz auf die Region entstehen. Weiters sollen die Lernenden angeregt werden, sich selbst mit ihrer Region zu beschäftigen. Da eine Auseinandersetzung mit Natur auch immer mit der sozialen, kulturellen und historischen Dimension der dort lebenden Personen zu tun hat, erfolgt eine umfassende Sicht auf die eigene Heimat. Die Ergebnisse („Gelerntes“ und selbst recherchierte Inhalte) sollen in einer öffentlichen Ausstellung in der jeweiligen Region präsentiert und anschließend zusammengefasst als Wanderausstellung wiederum in jedem Partnerland gezeigt werden. Als zusätzlicher Schritt soll die Einbeziehung von Land Art Künstlerinnen (Land Art ist eine Kunstrichtung, bei der KünstlerInnen vor Ort in der Natur, oft dort mit dort vorgefundenen Naturmaterialien arbeiten und Besonderheiten durch künstlerische Ausdrucksmittel verstärken) eine neue Sichtweise jenseits der herkömmlichen naturwissenschaftlichen Annäherung ermöglichen. Auch dies soll unter Einbeziehung der Lernenden in einer Ausstellung präsentiert werden.

Juvenile drop-outs

Drop Out- status A lot of studies resulting programs on the labour market are dealing with young people looking for orientation on the job market- who have already completed their education or already had their first experience in a job. Only few studies or programs are dealing with drop outs from schools and trainings .Exactly in this field there is a need for action. The young person runs the risk of loosing the used structure and the chances to find a job are not the best. Disorientation and frustration at the job search do not help to motivate the young job finder. This could have consequences not only on their career path, but also on their life planning.

Spaceship Earth

The project deals with the awareness of global crisis in European adult training. There are indications to believe that the awareness of global crisis is based on cultural constructions. The ideas of “world”, “end of the world”, “salvation of the world” are influenced by old narratives, than the tackling of global crisis could be seen as an intercultural task. The learners will observe the perception of the global crisis phenomena (for example: change of climate) in their country and the international efforts to tackle the crisis (for example: through world- conferences, concepts of sustainable development, millennium – targets). The observed discussions are going to be compared according to a defined concept. Especially interesting could be the comparison between societies with protestantic, catholic, orthodox or muslim background. The knowledge gained will finally be transferred in a game: The spaceship earth is caught in a problem. The multicultural crew (portrayed in likeness of the European society) tries to analyse the problem, understand the situation and to deal with it together.

Young Women: Fit for Politics

Um die gleichberechtigte Teilnahme von Frauen an politischen Entscheidungsprozessen zu fördern ist es nötig, Programme zu entwickeln und durchzuführen, welche die vielseitigen Potentiale junger Frauen als Ansatzpunkt für ihre spätere aktive Partizipation und Mitbestimmung nehmen. Young Women: Fit for politics! Ist eine einmalige Initiative, die interessierte und engagierte jungen Frauen in die Position versetzt, aktiv für eine Sache einzutreten und einen Beitrag für die Gesellschaft zu leisten. Sie soll die Horizonte der teilnehmenden Frauen mit Rücksicht auf ihre direkte Umwelt erweitern und grenzüberschreitende Projekte sowie langfristige Kontakte initiieren. Das Hauptziel des Projektes besteht darin, in jungen Frauen zwischen 16 und 25 Interesse für Politik zu wecken und Möglichkeiten und Chancen aktiver politischer Partizipation zu trainieren und anzubieten sowie die Vermittlung konkreter „Führungsqualifikationen“. (Rhetorik, Präsentationstechnik, Durchsetzungsfähigkeit, Selbstsicherheit, konsensorientierte Diskutieren, Teamarbeit, etc.) Diese Ziele werden durch die Entwicklung eines interaktiven Curriculums erreicht, welches praktische Übungen ebenso wie theoretischen Hintergrund für das als Workshop durchgeführte Training von Führungsqualifikationen enthält. Schließlich wird einmal pro Jahr in jedem teilnehmenden Land ein Modell- Workshop organisiert, bei dem 10-20 Frauen trainiert werden. Der Workshop enthält Exkursionen zu politischen und zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen und wird den jungen Frauen weibliche Rollenmodelle als Expertinnen vorstellen.

C´you- C´me. Looking both ways

The project involves 5 partners from EU countries, some experienced and some total novices in European cooperation. The main goal of the project is to develop and share expertise among the learning partners about the tool of forum theatre as a means to increase people’s awareness of their own roots and to deepen their understanding of different cultural backgrounds. C´you – C´me aims to raise people’s conscious awareness of the cultural traits and specific they are born into, by exposing them to a different language and culture. Through desk and field research they explore and learn to understand a foreign culture, which is than displayed in a forum theatre role- play, played by the researchers and trained actors. The results of research in form of the interactive role-play are put on stage in the host countries with an active role of the audience. All researchers and actors are part of the audience in case of a role- play, done by another partner and experience themselves and their culture through the eyes of the observers- like a mirror role- play. The stage role- play and interactive audience responses are kept on video and are displayed to a larger audience throughout a culture festival.

[edu:comm.] Education via communication in communities

The [edu:comm] learning partnership focuses on the development to new approaches in adult education dealing with the term community – in the sense of local groups brought together by a common social background or interest. How can communities use local media as a means of adult education? The key approach will be an integrative one in which communities do not teach or get taught, but find solutions of learning from each other- a process which is based on participation, self- organisation and (self-) empowerment. Community media intend to play an active part, initiating this process and developing it further. Local media offer media competence as adult educators, communities offer competences in local community work. The learning partnership aims at uniting these factors and find new concepts of education, participatory methods and community work.

Woman´s health in Adult Education

Ziel ist, Partnerorganisationen aus unterschiedlichen europäischen Staaten, die sich im Rahmen der Erwachsenenbildung u.a. mit Frauengesundheit beschäftigen, zusammenbringen, um sich über ihre Arbeit auszutauschen, voneinander zu lernen (Arbeitskonzeption, Methodik wie z.B. Beratungsmethoden, Trainingsmethoden usw.) bedeutsame Themen zu diskutieren und die Resultate ihren MitarbeiterInnen, ihren Zielgruppen und einer breiten Öffentlichkeiten zur Verfügung zu stellen. Ein weiteres Ziel ist die Gewinnung von neuen Erkenntnissen, sowie die Verbreitung dieses gesellschaftspolitisch wichtigen Themas in den jeweiligen Regionen der Partnerorganisationen im Sinne von Bewusstseinsbildung und Sensibilisierung. IN der Folge sollen die selbstverantwortlichen Bemühungen der Frauen um ihre eigene Gesundheit noch ernster genommen und noch stärker unterstützt werden. Die teilnehmenden Einrichtungen lernen unterschiedliche Arbeitsmethoden kennen und üben sich in transnationaler Kommunikation. Die VertreterInnen der Partnerorganisationen erweitern ihr praktisches und theoretisches Wissen, welches an die MitarbeiterInnen und Zielgruppen der Organisationen weitergegeben wird. Zielgruppen sind Frauen der teilnehmenden Organisationen, andererseits deren KundInnen und KlientInnen. Eingeschlossen sind sowohl von Gewalt betroffene Frauen, Migrantinnen, Frauen unterschiedlicher Herkunft, Frauen, die auf Grund von Behinderungen Diskriminierungen ausgesetzt sind und alle am Thema Frauengesundheit interessierte Frauen.

Imagine Peace

The idea of this project is based on the question “What is peace?” Peace often gets described as the opposite or absence of war. But we know that peace as the absence of war is often rather the threatening or arming for wars. Peace must be more- something quite different. Therefore this project aims to visualize and illustrate peace as something new, we don’t yet know. And how could we live it if we don’t know it? We want therefore to invite and encourage young people in European institutions in workshops and to develop ideas accordingly in images, music, dance, theatre, photos, etc. The workshop will be designed to transform new notions and conceptions of peace through personal creativity, imagination and intentions- developing positive images as pieces of art. The group should also exchange ideas, building a network on the forum www.BerthavonSuttner2005.info. In April 2006 we shall invite delegates of all groups to Vienna, where they introduce their working results and discuss it with international peace activists. It will be a peace conference with unusual approaches in remembrance of Bertha von Suttner and her innovative peace activities. An accompanying evaluation and scientific study will be published.

Regionalgeschichte- archäologische Spurensuche im Bodensee- und Alpenraum unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Römer

Ziel des Projektes ist es, ein Bildungsangebot zu entwickeln, das zu besserem Verständnis bzw. zum Vergleich der verschiedenen Kulturen, historischen Hintergründe und Verbindungen der Regionen um den Bodensee bzw. Südtirol beitragen kann. Dies geschieht anhand der Dokumentation gemeinsamer historischer Wurzeln mittels archäologischer Zeugnisse (Ausgrabungen, Bauten, museale Fundstücke aus dem römischen Alltag, Schmuckstücke). Diese bereits vorhandenen Quellen werden nach den neuesten Lehr- und Lernmethoden aufbereitet und den Lernenden in Form von Seminaren, Führungen, Exkursionen und Vorträgen angeboten. Gemeinsam werden dazu die Grundzüge für die regionalen Seminare und Veranstaltungen entwickelt. Das so erarbeitete Kooperationsprogramm wird von allen beteiligten Volkshochschulen im jeweiligen Gesamtprogramm publiziert. Die Teilnehmer und Teilnehmerinnen haben dadurch die Möglichkeit, den gemeinsamen und doch unterschiedlichen Natur-, Kultur- und Wirtschaftsraum zu erleben.

Lernen für eine Kultur des Lebens: Konzepte zur lebensbegleitenden Förderung von Selbstbildung und sozialer Verantwortung (Lernmotive- Lernbiographien- Lernarrangements)

Die Frage, welche Kompetenzen Menschen angesichts großer kultureller Herausforderungen heute brauchen, um in ihrem Umfeld “vernünftig” leben zu können, ist Ausgangspunkt einer Reflexion der Strategien in der Erwachsenenbildung als Grundlage der Entwicklung neuer Konzepte. Das bisherige Denken war vor allem am Können der Menschen interessiert. Nun kommt in Ergänzung dazu wieder stärker ein Denken in den Blick, welches das Leben insgesamt, die Bewältigung des Alltags und der gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen betont. Die Folge ist eine Verschiebung des Bildungsverständnisses in Richtung eines Kompetenzparadigmas (Funktionswissen- Orientierungswissen-Kompetenzen). Dazu gehört die Förderung nach Selbstbildung und sozialer Verantwortung, zur Förderung der individuellen Entwicklung und Erhaltung demokratischer und mitmenschlicher Gesellschaften. Austausch und Reflexion zu folgenden Fragestellungen leiten u.a. das Projekt: ƒ Welche Perspektiven bietet der Kompetenzbegriff über ein reines Qualifizierungsverständnis hinaus? ƒ Die Weiterentwicklung einer „Kultur des Lebens“ ist auf die Dimension Wissen- Information, soziale Netzwerke- Werte/Sinn angewiesen. Mit welchen Bildungsvorgängen tragen wir zur Förderung und Erschließung von Wertorientierungen( Erlebniswerte, Einstellungswerte, schöpferische Werte) bei? ƒ An welchen Lernmotiven knüpfen unsere Bildungsangebote an? Gibt es typische Lernmotive und Lernbiographien, die stärkere Berücksichtigungen finden sollten? Welche Lernarrangements (unter Berücksichtigung biographischen Lernens) fördern Selbstbildung und soziale Verantwortung?

SGE Safety goes Europe

Safety is a central topic of the European community; numerous guidelines are issued as EU adaptation laws. Safety concerns everyday life. Safety awareness of the citizen is not achieved by law. Prescriptions have only favourable effects, if their sense is understood. SGE aims at motivation of the active knowledge citizen concerning safety competence. Life long learning is necessary for achieving those knowledge and skills allowing knowledge- based self protection and enabling to take knowledge-based decisions. The target group of the SGE are adults having to be encouraged to life long learning. Adults are often sensitised by their children in sense of family education, the reason why besides the informal education the formal one is important. Special risk competence must be provided for disabled persons. SGE also improves the teaching methods in formal and non- formal education. Tutorial has to provide also methodical- didactical competence for improving the learner’s motivation. The partnership will exchange their different priorities to develop a “good practice” on a European platform with educational publications. Educational curricula as well as teaching and learning material available for every learner and teacher, integrating the different fields of safety are developed. Women are encouraged to become active also as trainers.

Dyslexia- Parents´ and Teachers´ Collaboration (DYPATEC)

The debate on dyslexia has become a world wide issue in every country and it affects children in all languages. This project focuses on the interaction of professionals and other adults, particularly parents who share the responsibility of supporting children and young people with dyslexia. Practice has shown that bringing these parties together can provide the most effective support for children. In this project parents, teachers and other professionals will be given an opportunity to discuss the most relevant matters on dyslexia from their perspectives. All participating institutions will contribute in organizing a symposium that will be of benefit for all adults involved, directly or indirectly in dyslexia. This teamwork underlines the interdisciplinary and multicultural character of the project which will be reflected in documentation based on the symposium. The principal final product – a parents´ guide on dyslexia including a CD-ROM for language practice- will be based on the discussion and the interactive work throughout the project. It is anticipated that this project will have a significant impact on adult learners in relation to understanding dyslexia and identifying the most appropriate supports within the family and the community for children and families.

GEnFOOD- InfoNet (Genetically Engineered Food- Information and Education Network)

After long negotiations EU- members, EU- parliament and EU- commission have come to terms: the identification and the access of genetically modified food to the market are laid down by law. This law will come into force all over EU in April 2004. Due to the realisation of this law, consumers get plenty of information for which they are not having full consciousness. The aim of our project is to close the gap between pure information and consumer decisions by education and informational work. The main focus of the first year of the of the project is on the one hand the knowledge- transfer from experiences in educational work in this subject and common learning through best practice examples. On the other hand the main emphasis is put on the exchange of experiences concerning the realisation and the handling of the new law, regarding the duty of marking food in the partner countries. On basis of the results the main focus of the second year of the project will be a common development of creative and innovative concepts and ideas concerning the education and informational work for consumers, multiplicators and all people interested. The emphasis of the partner countries is put on the predominant, multilingual, documentation, publication and distribution of the results as well as the development of materials for the distribution of information. The realisation of these aims will occur through methods corresponding to the character of each institution.

Performing Life: Site Specific Performance as a Means of Active Citizenship

Das Projekt will die Möglichkeiten von site specific performances auf dem Gebiet des Lebenslangen Lernens erforschen und aufzeigen, in welchem Maß diese Methode zu aktiver Staatsbürgerschaft beitragen kann. Die Arbeitsweise der site specific performance thematisiert in ihrer praktischen künstlerischen Arbeit die „Schauplätze“ von Aufführungen in ihrer Mehrfachbedeutung als Orte und soziale Räume. Die Basis der Arbeit bilden Recherche und ein hoher Grad an Sensibilität dafür, was die vorgefundene site zu sagen hat. Der künstlerische und pädagogische Prozess sowie die Aufführung geben Antworten darauf und gehen so aufgeschlossen wie möglich auf neue Kontexte zu, um mit Mitteln der Künstlerinnen und Künstler darauf zu reagieren. Im Projekt „performing Life“ Arbeiten vier Institutionen, die in Forschung und Lehre seit längerem die Schnittstellen zwischen Kunst und Sozialem untersuchen, zusammen. In den zwei Jahren werden in jeder der vier Städte jeweils zwei site specific perfomance Projekte durchgeführt, wobei in einem Rotationsprinzip jeweils Lehrende und Lernende aus den anderen Städten beteiligt sind. Drei Projekttreffen dienen dem Austausch der Praxiserfahrungen und der gemeinsamen Theoriebildung. Die Website des Projekts gewährt Einblicke in den aktuellen Stand der Dinge. Eine ausführliche Projektdokumentation sowie ein Thesenpapier in allen beteiligten Sprachen geben am Ende Auskunft über die entwickelte pädagogische Methode.

Learning languages through lyrics, “Music is Culture”

The project helps adults to learn English and other European languages in a simple, innovative and enjoyable way. The activities build on language courses with usage of the learner’s interests in music and culture.

Cultural exchange will enrich the personal development of participants.

An extra benefit is the enhancement of the ICT and basic skills of individuals.

During the first year, learners will translate lyrics from their mother tongue into English, and the English participants will translate English songs into Spanish, German, Italian or Polish. The translations are placed in files which serve as a songsbook.

During the second year, learners translate songs back to their native languages. Annual music festivals will make the process enjoyable and enable participants to perform their songs and meet participants from other European countries.

A new methodology of learning will be piloted. Initial assessments (start tests) and ongoing assessments (result tests) will be developed to evaluate the learner’s progress in English and other European languages.

Participants targeted will include young peolple, adult learners, community groups, immigrants and disabled learners.

Education for counteracting HIV/AIDS The aim of our project is ti create the syllabus – “Education for counteracting HIV/AIDS” which is to be oriented at adults who by virtue of the syllabus will be able to play the role of HIV/AIDS prophylaxis instructors. Using experience of different countries in HIV/AIDS problem we have enhanced chance to create a universal syllabus which is possible to implement widely in many (if not all) European countries. AIDS is a worldwide illness which is also in Europe. The number of HIV infection is growing in Eastern Europe and it is one of the biggest one in the world. This fact will endanger spreading up the disease to other European countries if we are not able to stop its territorial scope. HIV infection ends with death in shorter or longer time. Knowledge that upgrades the level of people’s awareness about the problem and that enables to take proper decisions and choices in life situations may prevent infection. An argument that supports the necesity to improve awareness in this aspect is frequent situation to reject infected peolple by society. Our syllabus is to prevent discrimination against ill children, youth and adults. In connection with social consequences of women’s infection (malfunction of the family) it is necessary to pay more attention to their education. The syllabus is designed for adult instructors. This group includes teachers, tutors,parents, health service workers, social workers and everybody whose profession or function gives possibility to transfer knowledge and skills about HIV/AIDS subjects to other. This form of syllabus should ecourage future instructors to use it for their courses. In the second year of the planned project we provide for pilot course (syllabus) and its verification. We plan to make the syllabus public via lessons to be taught by trained instructors, access to on-line seminars/trainings (different language versions). The syllabus will be elaborated in Braille alphabet in relief for the blind and partially sighted in the whole world. To sum up, by our syllabus we would like to prevent infections, break barriers and tame the HIV/AIDS problem. Duration: 2 years Funding year: 1st

The main topic of the project is introducing seniors to the IT. The project focus on different aspects of teaching/learning process and also how to improve the functioning of elderly citizens in the Information Society. IT skills have become “basic skills” without which it is very difficult to function in the modern society. Although in all European countries the population of seniors is growing, their IT skills remain very low. There are very few initiatives in Europe trying to solve this problem. This project has the aim of trying to fill this gap. The work will be centered about 6 seminars: one in each partner-country. Each partner will be responsible for one seminar devoted to one subtopic. Furthermore each partner will run an Internet activity involving all partners. Already exists a special webpage where information and experiences from all partners can be collected and shared The project involves both teachers and senior students in all activities.

ITAL 40+ IT teaching to adults learners - brainstorming European ideas/didactic problems

Information Technology (IT) is one of the most dinamicly developing sciences. The lack in IT education affects mainly adults learners. Therefore it is necessary to create new effective didactic programmes to supplement the adults’ knowledge in this area. It should be adapted to perception posibilities emerge from the break in education. Another problem is students’ psychical resistance in front of a new tool – a computer. This is why a new attractive form of curricula is needed to overcome this problem. A brainstorming of European experience would bring a huge impact to this matter. The most valuable experiences and achievements would be of great value to create common effective, didactic informatics programme for adults. In the first year following problems to solve during the second year have been identified, e.g.: how to boost the female participation in IT courses?, how to lead an advertising campaign for IT courses? , how to teach IT to disabled persons?

Habilitas

The youngsters involved in our project experience in their daily life some negative effects like segregation, intolerance and prejudice. For many defferent reasons they can not get integrated in a society unable to deal with people having difficulties and problems of different nature. Therefore, they are less prepared to enter vocational education and trainning and they have fewer possibilities on the labour market. The partners in this projects wish all students who belong to this target group do not accept the negative image they have and want to encourage them to fight for good work placements during their studies and for equal chances on the labour market.

The project partners will help these youngsters to prepare themselves for labour market through the simulation of activities of real professional situations, and exchange best practices concerning the actual participation of youngsters in education, labour market and social life during transnational meetings. Through the several foreseen activities and enthusiasm these yougsters will be able to influence fellow students, parents, employers, local and regional politicians and other decision takers.

LIMA - Life Management Skills

In each partner’s country there are at risk groups who are threatened by a social exclusion. Most of these people have very low level of education and consistently an instable position in the labour market, i.e. they switch frequently from employment to unemployment. This happens not only because of their educational deficits but also because of lack or insufficient use of life management skills (knowledge about their rights, possibilities of counselling and health services, learning opportunities — improvement of basic skills and language, etc.). Despite of training and counselling provision offered by the partner’s institutions they are mostly short-term employed and get back to their “passive” role again.

The project aims at enhancing the training of the trainers who work with people with low education level and enable them to counsel and train their course participants in a more effective way.

Apart from this primary project target group (teachers, trainers and counsellors from all partners’ organizations being involved in training and counselling of people with low education level), the training participants from each partner’s organization are the beneficiaries of the project.

A holistic approach is an answer for designing a more successful and individual-centred training and counselling provision for people with low education level. The acquired life management skills should enable the participants to feel responsible for their lives and participate actively in our society taking advantage of life long learning possibilities. Sharing the ideas and best practices between project partners will enable the trainers to improve and modify their training concepts and curricula.

Adult Students – LET’S KNOW EACH OTHER

With this project, we intend, most of all, to involve Adult Students in questions so pertinent as the European Dimension, make them aware, help them understand that we are citizens of the same Europe, because we cannot forget that, when these questions start to be approached, this population, given their social-economic status, used to be (and in a way still is, if they are not motivate) inattentive to this issues. With their horizons ascribed to the area where they live, they cannot (and are not interested) in learning this feeling of European Citizenship.

Acquisition, the development, the confrontation in terms of pedagogical and methodological approaches in the field of Adult Education, will always be the vector that will remain subjacent to all this cooperation activity that we aim to enrich along the Project. All this taking into account the creativity, diligence and motivation of the learners.

Since this is a very specific student population group, we hope the selected sub-themes be directly related to the life experience of the students and/or the training they are receiving, so we considered professional expectations/training motivation/local or national economic activities/work market situation/social and cultural aspects.

RECORDING MEMORIES AND TRADITIONS FOR THE FUTURE

The project aims to activate elderly people to participate in the life-long learning and thus maintain their intellectual activity and memory and to avoid exclusion from the role of active citizen. During the project we will arrange study groups where the attendants can remember and record old memories.

In connection with the project the participants will also learn to use services provided by the Internet when retrieving and presenting information. Also the group leaders have possibilities to become acquainted with the methods that are used in different countries. For the group leader there will be a short training, too.

Local schools, tourist’s entrepreneurs, quid’s, archives and museums will also exploit the material that is collected and recorded in study groups. Personal memories complement historiography and make it live.

ARTS & CRAFTS ACROSS EUROPE

The project will promote the preservation & awareness of European cultures & traditions. Working with visual arts & crafts, teachers & learners will work together across the Learning Partnership to share teaching methods & crafts skills, and ensure the preservation of these skills.

The Project will produce a multi-cultural visual archive & glossary of craft techniques used by each partner organisation.

In the 3rd year, the Project will pilot the archive & glossary with groups of younger learners, so that these skills are not lost, also promoting greater inter-generational communication and understanding.

During the course of the project, each partner organisation will host an exhibition & workshop to which all partners will be invited to contribute, sharing their teaching methods & skills at first hand.

The Project will promote a boarder awareness of other European cultures and tradition, & an opportunity to learn and share trans- European experience at first hand for groups of older people who may have faced significant social and economic barriers to continuing education. By working primarily trough a visual medium, the Project will minimise the difficulties arising from the lack of a common language, recognising that the majority of participant have faced significant socio-economic barries to the acquisition of foreign language skills. The project will enhance the confidence and self-esteem of teachers and learners by recognising the importance of their skills, & providing opportunities for these skills to be shared across a number of countries and cultures.

Adult immigrant Learner’s needs for Socio-cultural Integration

The project focuses mainly on immigrants who want to pursue a professional career in another country, or their family members, and those who have met their spouse in an international context and moved to that country. Some of the immigrants cope badly with the educational system. We are not good enough at motivating them and meeting their expectations in order for them to be integrated into society fast enough. Cultural understanding, both from teaching staff and immigrant learners, is not good enough to avoid problems in communication. Through the learning partnership the aim is to use introspective fieldwork in order to produce SWOT-analyses and learn from each other’s experience on good teaching practise. The learning partnership also wants to find ways to validate prior knowledge and introduce that perspective into their institutions. Duration: 2 years Funding year: 1st

RAOUL (Raising awareness of the use of languages)

RAOUL has arisen from the conviction of its partners that the potential benefits of being able to use a language other than one’s own are overlooked by significant numbers of adults. RAOUL enables its partners to benefit from a pan-European approach to raising awareness among individuals of the impact of other language competence in workplaces. The development of a motivational tool using the experience of teachers, learners, employees and potential employees in the partner countries will permit participants to explore and promote the advantages of being a competent linguist at work. The longer-term aspirations of the project will be that, in applying the promotional tool, interest in and demand for language learning will increase. In encouraging adults, as individuals, to recognise that language skills may enhance their employability, the project will also embrace consideration of the profile of languages in workplaces within the partner countries.

Social Inclusion for Adult Learners with Learning Disability

This project offers providers of social care and adult education from different EU countries the opportunity to compare services particularly tailored for Adults with Learning Disabilities. Staff from these agencies will be able to collaboratively assess National Legislation for Adults with Learning Disabilities, self-advocacy, travel and housing matters, issues linked to the transition from young person to adult, education and employment opportunities, benefit systems and person centred planning.

This comparison will enable the agencies to identify, apply and disseminate good practice to other appropriate organisations locally, nationally and internationally.

The aim of the project is to support Adult Learners with Learning Disabilities so that they have a better chance of living independently. The project will improve services and raise the profile of successful work currently done in each partner’s country in isolation.

My Voice

This project considers the development of learner focused community education that is based on the personal needs and circumstances through the active listening of potential learners so that they can actively design learning programmes that meet their needs. This will be initially achieved through the research and examination of different European approaches and methodology in engaging the participation of hard to reach learners and citizens within rural and urban districts. Adult and Community Education (Life Long Learning) has a variety of aims and objectives that differ from country to country. This project concentrates on the learning providers being non-formal community and voluntary sector based organisations that have the mutual aim of encouraging active community participation. A key objective in all countries is the active participation of the most disadvantaged members of the community and the active encouragement to become active citizens. The project aims to examine the learning and empowerment journeys of European citizens that want to learn in order to improve their circumstances but lack the confidence and resilience to make steps into formal education or take part in community initiatives.

The Three Cs – Coping with Cultural Changes in different European Areas

Each partner has identified major socio-economic changes within the area where they work. All have access to, or are working with, groups of adult learners who have experienced these changes, but often find it difficult to cope with them. Partner members will use different media as innovative learning tools, e.g. drama, creative writing, art, digital photography, language with their target groups in order for the learners to gain greater understanding of how their lives have been affected by change and how they can best cope with those changes.

The sharing of this learning will enable to target groups to appreciate not only the differences, but also the similarities between the various cultures of the partnership.

Empowerment and Disability: Informal learning through self-advocacy and life history

This project promotes exchange between people with learning difficulties who are experienced self-advocates and university researchers that have worked with them to identify the extent and depth of their learning and the learning needs of people in their position. Its purpose is emancipatory. It aims to develop learning content and curriculum for experiential learners and identify ways of recognising the mainly informal educational and related achievements of people with learning difficulties in ways that challenge and help to transform socially excluding stereotypes. This entails developing increased numbers of self-advocates and furthering the place of people with learning difficulties in further and higher education in Europe. The project is inclusive and the outputs will be jointly authored. In a variety of ways, people’s positive life histories as learners will be used to develop relevant, challenging and advanced curriculum material that meets the research and learning demands of self-advocacy and helps secure a recognised place for self-advocates in universities. This will include opportunities to teach and learning experiences that can be accredited.

Re-Vision: Celebrating Diversity through Photography

Seven European centres engaged in teaching and learning through practice in visual arts, crafts, design or media are co-operating on a shared programme of creative learning for socially disadvantaged adults. This innovative project is employing creative approaches to the practice of photography and IT, and led by experienced facilitators in local centres, adult learners create images and texts about how they see themselves and their circumstances. Such collaborative ‘learning through doing’ not only enables learners to re-view themselves in a positive and celebratory way but also encourages self-confidence and stimulates ambition. A website, created as a virtual gallery of learners’ products, provides a means of learner interaction across all centres. The Re-Vision project is monitored through meetings for managers, facilitators and learners held in different centres within the partnership, alongside public exhibitions of learners’ texts and images. Virtual and physical dissemination of products and processes thus enriches the experience of participant learners, actively promotes social inclusion, shares good practice and innovative ideas, and provides a platform for further trans-national collaboration.

Research and Development of Appropriate Interpersonal Skills and Qualities in Supporting Open, Flexible and E-Learning

The aim of this project is to research, develop and disseminate effective practice in supporting flexible learning in adult education. The project partnership will identify successful strategies and work practices used by practitioners to support new and marginalised participants in lifelong learning.

A consortium of 8 adult education institutions will be created, each from a separate European state, with a goal of researching appropriate interpersonal skills and qualities of practitioners in supporting open, flexible and e-learning. Each partner will analyse the interpersonal qualities and skills of practitioners in supporting the delivery of such programmes within their own institution, identifying effective practice. An electronic forum will be created to enable communication between participants. The project will identify a “Good Practice Framework”, which outlines effective social support strategies in supporting flexible learning, and which identifies interpersonal skills and qualities essential to practitioners.

It’s all in the mind.

The project will work with a number of European partners to establish the training and support needs of training/teaching staff. This is to ensure that they are better able to work with, and support, learners experiencing mental health problems. The aim of this is to allow people with mental health problems to access mainstream learning as opposed to learning within dedicated or specialist environments.

The project will define the term mental health disability for the purposes of this project and will identify the scope of disabilities which can be included for any training materials produced to support training staff. A literature review will be conducted by each participating organisation to establish the current strategy for supporting learners with mental health disabilities and to establish to what extent teaching staff are trained and supported. Furthermore, teaching methodologies will be explored together with identification and sharing of good practise.

Women Across Europe

The aim of this project is to promote the value of education and training amongst disadvantaged women in Europe, with a view to using their skills and knowledge to develop an information bank in the form of an online directory of locally based women’s services and groups and ultimately to establish a women’s network. The directory will be a useful resource for community women’s groups trying to make contact with other similar groups throughout Europe. It will also be a good point of reference for individuals and organisations working within communities, e.g. social workers, doctors etc. It is anticipated that approximately 120 adult learners will be actively involved. The project will promote a collaborative approach to learning. Learners will have the opportunity to share information and learning and develop ICT and language skills by contributing to the transnational newsletter.

Embracing E-Learning

The project will test the potential for e-learning and m-learning (learning objects delivered to learners on mobile devices) to engage adult learners fully in lifelong learning. This will be achieved by staff meeting in workshops to experiment with different pedagogic approaches to e-learning, sharing good practice with partners and exploring the potential for m-learning in order to stimulate adult learners demand for learning. Learners from the different partner organisations will also work together to try out and test e-learning and m-learning, discussing and exchanging views face to face. Staff and learners will also engage in the design and evaluation of accessible interfaces for learning with mobile handheld devices. The project will build a learning portal to test the different approaches and will design a model of good practice to share with others.

Voices in Action (VIA) (Previously VOCAL)

The project aims to develop a learning programme that empowers older people who experience disadvantage to take a more active role in issues which affect their everyday lives. The partners will map out what provision and methodologies currently exist to promote the concept of active citizenship among older people in Europe. They will consider the barriers that isolate older people from learning opportunities and will develop creative strategies to try and overcome these barriers. They will develop a curriculum which will contain several units based on values and beliefs of inclusion and empowerment. The curriculum will be piloted in each country and further adaptations will be made. The partners then hope to apply for further funding to implement and evaluate the course.

POPPIE – Promoting the involvement of older people in partnership learning experiences

The POPPIE project has been developed in response to the need for consumer education for older people and their workers so that effective involvement in the delivery and development of services can be promoted. The main aim is to ensure that older people feel confident and have the necessary skills to work in partnership with a range of public services of importance to them. The identified services include health, social care, education, housing, transport and prevention of crime. The project will explore the different approaches being taken across Europe, both from the perspective of older people and workers. Training requirements of older people and trained workers will be identified and good practice guidelines will subsequently be developed. It is anticipated that the project will lead to the development of informal and formal life long learning opportunities for older people.

LIVE – Learning in Voluntary Experience

A key theme of the LIVE partnership is to share experiences among the partner organisations in recognising the worth of the volunteering experience and to develop tools which acknowledge this informal and non-accredited learning. The groups targeted by the project include asylum seekers, ethnic minorities, disabled people, homeless people, ex-offenders, single parents, drug/alcohol misusers and other people facing social exclusion. It is recognised that volunteering can help develop the confidence and personal aspirations of individuals which often leads to further learning, social inclusion and employment. The aim of the project is to widen participation in learning by involving these disadvantaged groups in volunteering activities.

Welcome to My Home – International Tourism from a Community Perspective

This project is based upon two premises: firstly that tourism is a growth industry across Europe with sub-regions seeking to develop their own identity and unique selling points to potential visitors. Secondly, within each region there are minority communities whose perception of the identity of their region is strongly influenced by their own history, heritage and status within the local society. The project will bring these two aspects together by enabling groups of minority adult students to prepare for and participate in study visits. The Learners will explore the concept of their area as a tourist destination by preparing a web based presentation linked to hosting a visit by other learners / staff in the partnership. Staff and Learners will thereby gain ICT skills, inter-cultural competencies and an increased awareness of the cultural, social and economic diversity of Europe.

No Barriers

The project aims to provide adults from under-represented learner groups with the opportunity to access learning in new and innovative ways by identifying and trying to overcome any barriers such learners may face. By taking part in the project, learners will gain in self confidence and will become more aware of opportunities that allow for progression through to other levels of learning and development. The partners will share approaches to supporting students and overcoming barriers to learning, thus contributing to better knowledge and awareness of both different and common elements of learning environments in the European Community.

WINGS (Women in Need of Greater Support) across Europe

The aim of this project is to provide educational support to pregnant teenagers and young parents, helping them to remain in formal education. An assessment of existing learning provision, and an exercise involving learners in identifying their own needs, will identify strengths and weaknesses in the existing provision of informal learning. Gaps in provision will be used to inform the development of a Parenting and Life skills programme in a format that will facilitate progression into formal learning and which will be made available to all pregnant teenagers and young mothers. Using a mentor/tutee process, trainers and teachers will have the opportunity to up-skill in areas of identified need as part of their continuing professional development.

Basic Skills and Social Enterprises

The aims and objectives of the Learning Partnership are to identify good practice developed by partners in engaging normally disaffected adults in lifelong learning, particularly where there is a need for basic skills development. In many cases, these people have been ‘turned off’ learning by previous unsatisfactory experiences and are thus apprehensive (if not antagonistic) to re-engaging with an educational organisation. However, many of these people are attracted to the operations of social enterprises or co- operatives which are not seen as representing ‘establishment’ organisations. In particular, this project will identify good practice where social enterprise organisations and learning providers work together to reach the target groups and, by developing flexible and non-threatening programmes, encourage them to re-engage with learning and address basic skill needs. The involvement of learners throughout this project, including transnational visits is therefore essential.

Smiley Faces – European Learning Bags

The overall aim of the project is to increase the child development knowledge and basic skills of childminders and parents and, through them, improve the early years education of children aged 3 – 12.

The adult learners (childminders and parents) will develop a range of ‘Smiley Faces European Learning Bags’ and supporting training materials for use in the education of children. Each ‘Learning Bag’ will contain resources (toys, games, stories, songs, etc) created, recorded and handcrafted by the learners themselves. The ‘Learning Bags’, which will also reflect the cultures of the countries involved, will be exchanged with partners and piloted with groups of children across the partnership. The bags will also incorporate a project logo to reflect the differing cultures and will explore the use of a ‘Travelling Teddy’ to accompany the bags across the countries. The project will also deliver a basic child development course to provide learners with the knowledge and skills necessary for the development of educational resources. It will also devise and deliver training in child observation techniques as well as training in the use of the learning bags.

SOCIAL INCLUSION IN ACTION (SIA)

The project aims to change attitudes and achieve social inclusion and community cohesion through learning and developing methods for motivating both majority-dominated institutions/organisations and minorities. The target groups are 1. (Minorities): ethnic minorities, handicapped and socially marginalized groups, including women in rural areas. 2. (Majorities), members of our organisations local community members and staff. Staff and learners will meet twice a year in different European countries, taking part in study visits, learning from each others’ experience and learning the Process Work method as practised by the partners in UK and Slovakia. Process work is an innovative and cross-disciplinary approach to facilitate individual and collective change. It provides a practical framework through which each individual and group can interact, bringing out all points of view in order to achieve a “deep democracy”, the stage where all parts of the group or society is valued and accepted as they are. Thorough facilitation of the gathering of groups and individuals who are often in conflict or isolation, leads to greater awareness on each side and allows interacting with more understanding. The tools of process work are particularly useful for coping with prejudices, barriers and for empowering the individuals and groups from within, by seeking for the inner resources of power, often hidden under conflicts or painful experiences of marginalisation. The project will evaluate if and how the Process Work method is of practical use to the partners’ activities.

Future Workshops for Europe

The Future Workshop (FW) is a methodology that helps people learn about Europe and European institutions and empower citizens to meet the challenges of a knowledge-based society. We will use FW to reach out to disadvantaged groups through multipliers, like teachers, youth and social workers, and trainers. The FW is an innovative and well-structured process which has been used for many years to find solutions, and for community-based planning. The FW was originally developed for citizen groups with limited resources who wanted a say in the decision-making process. It is a technique meant to shed light on common challenges, to genrate visions about the future and to discuss how these visions can be realised. In this case, we will use the FW to work with educators and other multipliers from rural and local areas in order to train them in the methodology. We plan to train self-sufficient teams of trainers who can support each other in implementing the process in their home communities. These teams will use the FW process with their communities to create adult education programs for the purposes of teaching about Europe and European values and promoting active citizenship.

16+ The basic document for defining the idea to develop this project is the commitment of the Community manifest in the Treaty of Amsterdam to combat social exclusion in ways consistent with promoting a ‘Europe for all’.

Work on this statement the project is aiming at bringing in contact European adult learners who are one of the disadvantage and possible social exclusion group – young adults which are the contingent of the special institutions - foster home/foster care -till they come of age. After this period they are under of obligation to leave these institutions and to star their independent/self-dependent life. Really their life during the leaving this environment was easy but not in every case useful. There is a lack of understanding, knowledge and skills for survival without any negative consequences, other words, these people form a social group, which can easily become social excluded. WITHIN THIS CONTEX THE PROJECT WANTS TO FOCUSE ESPECIALLY development ‘’MEDIA –LESSONSON’’ directly with the participation of these young adults, to encourage them to share their experience and understanding for possible way of adequate life outside this institutions, when they became more than 16 and have to leave the institutions.

To contact each other and to discuss their understanding for active citizenship and easy integration in a society after leaving, they will discover that extra skills are needed. This will encourage the participating learners to help their younger friends from that institution and to support the staff of the same institution in organising and participating in such activities. This first phase of the project will be compare and confront the different national experience in this area in the participating countries trough actively involvement of the staff of the respect organisation. It will be defining several main teams for media – lessons, for example in the next directions:’’ how I live now’’, ‘’what can be happen with me after leaving’’, what I want to be my future life outside’’, what happened’’ and etc. The next phase will deal whit development of national workshops with young adults and staff from the foster home and participants from partners’ organisation – in Italy, in Spain, in Cyprus, in Portuguese, In Bulgaria, in Lithuania. Final phase will analyse the project results and provide dissemination of them to other institutions and customers and prepare action plan for future development of the project. The project output will consist media lessons, chat room, cartoons and action plan for future development of the project.

ISEM Improvement of Strategies for E-Learning in a Multicultural Context

The project Improvement of Strategies for E-Learning in a multicultural context (ISEM) aims at exchanging information, know-how and good practices in the field of e-learning among 4 European countries (BG, IT, ES, DE). The so created Learning Partnership involves a diversity of organizations providing formal, informal and non-formal training to learners with special needs. The project envisages 6 mobility actions (partners meetings, staff exchanges and a closing seminar) to be held within a period of two years. Both mobility actions and country-based activities (data collection, analysis, and research) will allow the partners to gain insight into the needs of the learner, to identify existing Lifelong Learning (LLL) gaps. The Learning Partnership will agree on concrete measures to support the launch of innovative actions and alternative LLL pathways that better meet the diversity of learners’ needs and demands. In addition to that research, the project also focuses on reviewing positive practices and transfer of know-how in the field of LLL and e-learning. The project results will be widely disseminated by setting up an online database (web page) on good practices.

Knowledge of the Nature

The present project will enrich the knowledge of informal ecological education among teachers and leaders of ecology clubs and organizations from European countries. The participating organizations will introduce their successful practice and rich experience in the interpretation of the common European subject of environmental preservation and prudent use of local natural resources. Through scientific and practical seminars the participants will display new commonly applicable methods of teaching, emphasizing on non-standard forms and ways of acquiring knowledge about nature in the open air. Two workshops are to be held in 2005 – in April in Bulgaria and in June in Italy. The teachers in natural sciences and the leaders of ecology clubs are to release their most creative and applicable interpretation practices and experience in a Guide of Informal Ecological Teaching and on a CD to disseminate their experience in other European countries. We intend to create a network of school (children and youth) ecology clubs and organizations, for cooperation work on common European environmental problems, and on developing joint projects of The European Council Programmes. A work meeting of the partners was held in Sliven in 2004, where the Bulgarian trainees – teachers in natural sciences, were introduced. The cooperation work resulted in applying with a new project under the Youth for Europe programme which envisages organizing an international youth ecology camp in July 2005 in Sliven with some new partners from Germany, Slovakia, and Romania. The Technical University, Sliven, Bulgaria, and the Tecno- Group from Benevento, Italy, have signed an agreement of collaboration in scientific and technological research and transfer of environmental know-how regarding services, the ambient and quality of life. We have also started the preparation of the web site of the project, the design of which will be presented at the workshop in Sliven in April 2005.

YnterACT (YouNgsters Together for European Research of Active eduCational Tools)

Nowadays it is said that a normal human being is involved in as many interpersonal communication situations in one week as our ancestors four centuries ago in their whole life. In 2005 we have TV, radio, phone, fax, Internet! They make communication a lot faster, but not necessary more manageable! On the contrary, the truth is that the speed overwhelms many of us! YnterACT aims to give communication and education a more… human face! And in the process to promote the use of new pedagogical methods! How? We do not need to reinvent the wheel. There are already so many tools on the market. The best, cheapest and most effective solution is to identify those that we need and to adapt them to our needs as individuals and as members of a institution. Educational tools like formal debate, role simulation, lateral thinking, creativity games are the right instruments. They are effective because they are fun and one can learn in the same time. YnterACT aims to create a network of Creative Communication Clubs where young adults would have the chance to meet and practice the above-mentioned educational tools.

We recognized that people need more than occupation specific or technical skills to be competent in employment, and employment brings with it a special stress on lifestyle. That is why trough the project CORE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT – THE CAPACITY OF CHANGING PEOPLE LIFESTYLE, the partners intend to increase the capacity for changing people’s lifestyle by the development of the lifelong learning based on key skills, basic skills and entrepreneurial skills that can be found under the umbrella of core skills. The project proposes to promote lifelong learning as an opportunity to develop people’s careers and to prevent social marginalization or exclusion. It is focused especially on the definition of basic and core skills, on non- formal and informal education & training instrument creation.

The project aims are: - identification of core skills that can determinate the modification of curricula and of the learning process by its transformation into learning objectives - friendly re-definition of main and specific concepts - identification and development of learning model that can be interactive and of a learner centred teaching process development of learning communities - contingency management

TRA.C.E.C: Traditions and customs in the context of European community The problems of encounter among cultures and of lifelong learning in the “knowledge’s society” require answers and proposals suitable for assuring an effective confrontation that makes reliance on methodologies of teaching/learning able to stimulate creativity’s forms. It is manifest the osmotic relation that comes to create in a situation of integration and social inclusion begins by the “other’s” knowledge with reference to personal experienced and to stores roots of different ethnologies.

We will work to increase acceptance and respect among and within cultural values discovering strategy for stimulating adult learners’ demand for learning, the way to avoid the social barriers which are imposed to certain disable people, to reach through the knowledge of the different cultures that exist in every region, country, the comprehension of the role that every one of these cultures play in the actual societies.

To be European citizens means to look at the right, at the micro history, at the local history, with the availability to the focus of fundamental problems with a net of relations for significant developments, in view of recovery and exchange. Researching, narrating, building together, but also, rebuilding, revaluing, recovering the heritage of popular and local culture: this is the aim of our proposal. The challenge is in the present that looks at the past and the future in a “pro positive” way, bringing in our every day life Europe Dimension.

A New Approach to the Teacher-Parent-Learner Relationship

The project proposes the application in education of a new modern concept concerning interpersonal relationships, based on the latest research on human brain functioning, Transactional Analysis, emotional intelligence, theories of necessities, communication, personal development principles, and lifelong learning, as a base for the cooperation among teachers, parents, and learners within the educational process. The concept is presented in the book “Lumina” (The Light), available in English, edited by Partener Foundation (project coordinator) as result of a previous Grundtvig2 programme.

The methodology implementation of the concept will be interactive, participative known as “Forum Theatre” and others drama techniques, meant to ensure a learning based on discovery and practise of behavioural models, which allows the spectators to become actors, provoking exchange of roles, learner to parent or teacher and vice-versa.

The project intends to produce a strong impact in the way parents’ conscience perceives the “other”, but also in the conscience of those involved in adults’ education. This is achieved in the context of their participation and confrontation within pilot groups, which also contain learners (children), who, this time, will have the opportunity to “grade” their parents’ and teachers’ behaviour. The next stage will be the cooperation among the three parts in finding together solutions concerning the prediction and solving of problems / conflicts, taking into account the interests of all parts.

MEDIALITE – Media Literacy in Adult Education

"Media literacy” – the ability to critically consume and create media – is an essential skill today. Media literate individuals are better able to decipher the complex messages they receive from television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books, billboards and signs, packaging and marketing materials, video games, and the Internet. Media literacy skills can help one understand not only the surface content of media messages but the deeper and often more important meanings beneath the surface. Media literacy education seeks to give media consumers’ greater freedom by teaching them to analyze access to, evaluate and produce media. The goal is a citizenry that critically analyzes what it reads, sees and hears. While media literacy educational approaches have enjoyed remarkable expansion during the past decade, most of them limit to instructing students to create media. Therefore, the project seeks to alleviate this by constructing a critical framework able to contribute to awareness raising on the importance of education regarding decoding media, envisaging its future integration across curricula in the informal education of adults, while designing educational guidelines and a virtual resource centre.

PARENTS EDUCATION IN DISADVANTAGED AREAS

The role of parents is very important for the success of the children. Unfortunately most of the parents living in the slums and rural areas are not well educated. Many of the parents are unskilled and jobless. Some of them are even illiterate. They do not join the economical and social life of the city. They are not familiar with ICT and do not speak any foreign language. All of these factors reduce self esteem of the parents and they do not know how to deal with the education of their children. There is not much link with school and parents in the mentioned disadvantaged areas. The case is the same for the parents of the disabled children. This project aims trying new strategies to involve and motivate the parents in the education of their children and of their own.

The aspects of the project are: 1) European dimension of life long learning through sharing of experience, innovation and best practices, 2) Increasing self esteem and active citizenship of the parents, 3) Establishing link between school and family.

The objectives are: - The participation of parents to the economical and social life of the community, - Promoting parents for a life long learning, - Planning and improving short courses for the parents, - Use of ICT, - Promoting parents to participate in parents’ organisations in schools, - Creating a manual for organisations and institutions for training of parents.
