In September 2007 HEIRNET held a conference, thanks to the History Education, Identity and Citizenship in the hospitality of Dursun Dilek and his host institution, Marmara University, in Istanbul. There 21st Century was no better place in the world to hold a conference on the role that History Education can and should play in the modern world: on the cusp of Europe and the gateway to Hilary Cooper, Dursun Dilek and Jon Nichol Asia; on the fault line between Christianity and Islam and in the cauldron of competing beliefs, ideologies and political systems. Internationally History has a major role to play in preparing children to be citizens in a world of plural democracies. History Education sits at the most volatile point on the The Istanbul conference’s theme was History Education, identity and citizenship in the interface between politics and education: its role is hotly contested in all societies, 2st Century. This volume includes a selection of papers delivered at the conference. particularly where it is dealing with issues with a temporal dimension and perspective They cover a wide range of themes including— such as beliefs, capitalism, citizenship, community, democracy, family, fascism, • Gender fundamentalism, gender, ideology, identity, internationalism, nationalism and nationality, • Nationalism and internationalism political systems, religion, rights, terrorism, totalitarianism and values. • Multi-culturalism • Ethnicity In a world where History is universally recognised as having a central educational role • Citizenship we felt that the resulting academic discourse had no central forum where its members • Values could discuss, debate, share, report and disseminate its findings. Academic papers that • Beliefs addressed concerns of the History Education community were scattered in generalist • Pedagogy journals, often as an adjunct to these publications’ major preoccupations. Yet, History • Academic subject knowledge Education is too important to be marginalised: it needs a voice that presents the findings • Fundamentalism of theory, scholarship and research. Such a voice is not intended to be part of a private, • European community internal dialogue within the closed cloisters of academia: a central issue is for it to inform and hopefully provide an evidentially based body of knowledge and understanding that IJHLTR and HEIRNET are proud to be centrally involved in the discussions and debate that teachers, administrators, educators, politicians and the bodies that guide and shape the are the meat and drink of History Education. Accordingly, we are delighted to announce school curricula across the world might heed. that the Historical Association of the United Kingdom is taking over the publication of IJHLTR—it will now be accessible to members of the Historical Association as well as Accordingly, in 200 the International Journal of Historical Learning, Teaching and members of the HEIRNET community. Research [IJHLTR] was founded to provide an international medium for reporting on History Education: it in now in its thirteenth volume. To further the vision of IJHLTR, in 200, Hilary Cooper of the University of Cumbria, UK and Jon Nichol of the Universities of Exeter and Plymouth established an informal body, the History Educators International Research Network [HEIRNET] to give a physical, corporeal manifestation to IJHLTR. HEIRNET has now become established within the community of history educators, meeting annually in a range of locations from Cape Town to Cumbria and Istanbul 4 5 The Turkish prospective History teachers’ In the Dictionary of Philosophy, the description of analogy is that if two things have understanding of analogy in History education similarities in certain aspects, one concludes that these two things have other similarities or equalities in other aspects (Akarsu, 998, p.). In the Dictionary of Social Sciences, Bahri Ata, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey analogy is described as that on the base of similarities of two things, the judgment related to the first thing is accepted as valid for the second thing (Demir & Acar, 2005, p.8). Abstract—This paper identifies ways in which analogy may help students to understand the past. It defines different types of analogy and investigates and evaluates ways in In the following sections of this paper, approaches to analogy in History and Pedagogy which student history teachers might use different types of analogy. are briefly considered.

The protection of the rich diversity of European education has been paramount in TUNING from the very start and it in no way seeks to restrict the independence of academic and subject specific specialists, or undermine local and national academic authority. This edition of the Tuning Guidelines and Reference Points for the Design and Delivery of Degree Programmes in Civil Engineering is published in the framework of the CALOHEE Project 2016-2018 (Agreement number: 562148-EPP-1-2015-1-NL-EPPKA3-PI- FORWARD) This project has been funded with support from the European Commission.

  • History and Europe Ous New Members
    History is the science of the past. Or is it? Its object is what has already happened. But, far from being out of sight, out of mind, the past is our constant partner. Our waking life is populated by ideas of who we are and what we should do, based in a more or less informed way on our knowledge of the past. European citizens have embarked on an important journey, building a Union, consolidating it and even admitting numer- History and Europe ous new members. What is our destination? How long will the journey take? No one knows. For now, there is only one answer: “Time will tell”. But how we shape our Union, how we react to challenges and resist or negotiate change depends on what we are able to pre- dict and what we know about ourselves, others, and the polity we are striving to build. Strangely, considering the urgency of being informed about issues that concern us all, few students in higher education are given the opportunity to learn about the European Union and its development. In most History departments, if EU his- tory is taught at all, it is from a point of view skewed towards the national experience. This is natural, but it also tells us that a fuller circulation of knowledge and ideas is necessary. History learning and teaching are still conceived largely in a national framework, and rightly so, since the national context influences deeply how citizens experience their belonging to the EU. And Europe’s role in the wider world? Europeans need a deeper understanding of that world to interact positively with it.

    Annex to the Tuning Validation Brochure: Report on Third Cycle Studies in History Draft Contents Introduction The 'Doctoral Paradox' The Survey The Assembly The Results Dublin Descriptors Recommendations Annexes: Annex 1: Questionnaires from Staff Annex 2: Reports from Doctoral Students' discussion groups a. Group 1 b. Group 2 c. Group 3 d. Group 4 e. Group 5 f. Group 6 Annex 3: Excerpt from forthcoming paper by Julia Gonzalez, Katherine Isaacs, Robert Wagenaar, Applying Tuning Methodology to Third Cycle Studies. Introduction This is a draft for discussion. It gathers materials created over the past three years regarding the third cycle of studies in the Bologna structure, that is the 'doctoral' cycle, leading to a Ph.D or similar degree. Since the Bologna conference of ministers held in Berlin, and especially after Bergen (May 2005), the 'third cycle' has become officially a part of the Bologna process. As such, it takes its place in the general structure that guides the efforts of legislators, academics and administrators engaged in the quest for quality in higher education -- in countries even more numerous than the 45 that have already signed the Bologna agreements. The European History Network, formerly known as CLIOHnet and at present as CLIOHnet2, has cooperated with the Tuning Educational Structures in Europe project to develop guidelines and reference points for History courses and curricula in all European contexts. The History Subject Area Group of the Tuning project is formed of CLIOHnet2 members. The History Subject Area Group has analysed the differences in the doctoral programmes in the countries represented in Tuning.

Please note that the annexed document is very long. The text of direct relevance to the issue raised here can be found on pages 19-20 of the annexed document. Requested action For reference The “List of the ongoing and completed flagships of the EUSBSR” is not any more embedded in the EUSBSR Action Plan. Rather, it has been made a separate document (an Annex to the Action Plan for the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region) available for downloading on the EUSBSR website at http://www.balticsea-region- strategy.eu/action-plan/25-ongoing-and-completed-flagships-of-the-eusbsr (also annexed to this present document). Whereas several completed health and social well-being projects are listed on the list, only two are mentioned as ongoing, one of them being the NoDARS project led by the NDPHS Secretariat and the other one being a project “Strengthening prevention and reduction of impacts of Tuberculosis (TB), Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and associated infections (AIs) and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the Baltic Sea Region by joint international activities (TB/HIV/AI/STIs Project)” which has been included on the list (already on its previous version) as recommended by the NDPHS upon request of the then NDPHS HIV/AIDS&AI Expert Group.

  • CEEUN - Central and Eastern European University Network an International Network of Applied Research on Transition Issues
    April, 2006 CEEUN - Central and Eastern European University Network An international network of applied research on transition issues In 2002, CEEUN was established as a network of cooperation among international university institutions and research centers, with a wide range of issues and innovative projects. It was promoted by a group of Italian university Institutes, Departments and Research Centers: OSSFI- Finance, Banking and Enterprise Observatory, Udine University; ICETS-International Institute for Transition Studies, Luiss University Rome and Trieste University; CNEAS-Center for North East and Adriatic Studies, Venice; ITDO- International Transition Studies Observatory, University Ca' Foscari, Venice. The constitutive meeting took place in Vienna, at the WIFO-Austrian Institute of Economic Research, with the participation of nearly forty Institutions. Since the start up, more than four hundred faculty members, researchers and experts at international level, belonging to eighty research institutions in twenty-two countries have been cooperating in the CEEUN initiative. In the three years from the beginning, the development of the wide programs has been accompanied by the completion of the Network architecture and Transition Studies Review-TSR (www.springer.at/tsr), the Network scientific “voice” hosting papers and articles submitted by the partners. The Journal TSR is a quarterly published in English by Springer Wien New York, indexed in Journal of Economic Literature, with an international readership, and is focused on transition researches in Central and Southeast Europe, the Black Sea and Mediterranean region, Russia, Central Asia, Ukraine, Caucasus and, more recently, Latin America and Asia. The annual CEEUN meeting in Alpbach on September 2005 has signed a new step forward in order to better accompany and support the Network present stage without losing the wide representative capability of the many partners involved and the full operative stage of the Regional Centers.
