Workplan

The global objectives of the project are:

  1. The realisation of curricula and didactic programmes including "European" aspects already present in the subjects on school curricula. These aspects introduce innovative interdisciplinary practices and are aimed towards the real testing of this European dimension in school and society;

  2. The training of teachers, educators and trainers and the testing in secondary schools of study plans (curricula) identified in order to enlarge the European dimension in teaching also by the production of materials and ad hoc tools;

  3. The diffusion of the use and knowledge of the information society through the testing of e-learning systems in humanistic studies.

Specific objectives
The project consists of three distinct plans, which are organically connected to attain specific objectives:

  1. The research relating to the "forms" in which the rights of a "European citizen" of society and school can manifest themselves. At the beginning, this phase has a preparatory function, but it will also be developed together with the whole project and parallels other activities, with the explicit intent of comparing different sectors of school, university and civil society, looking for and highlighting areas where the idea of citizenship and integration can be put into practice from now on. Alongside this, the project aims to prepare the platform for long distance learning and a permanent website on the theme of "citizenship and European integration".
    Output: A common model and didactic methodology; website; e-learning platform.

  2. The research of strategies directed to introduce a "civic" European dimension into teaching. The project proposes to intervene in the school system in two ways: preparing didactic methodology to strengthen the European dimension of teaching the subjects that lend themselves most to the idea of "sovranationality of education"; supporting the school with the introduction of specific practices to teach the sovranationality, interculturality, real democracy intended as a recourse for dialogue, respectful of laws, with clear behaviour.
    Output : curricula and didactic programmes; material for online teacher training.

  3. On-line teacher training and the collaboration between institutes in the different countries. This phase represents the real objective of the project. Through this phase, the strategies most suited to introduce the idea of "citizenship" and European "civic education" are to be diffused throughout the institutes involved in the project. This phase will be implemented through the "modulo exempla" trial effected separately by each partner at a national level in the schools taking part in the project (organisations taking an active part in the project without benefiting from the Socrates grant).
    Output: online course for teachers; online course for students using the trial of the "modulo exempla"; final report of the project.
