LIGHTHOUSES AND STATIONS. TRIP TO ITHACA

Description

"“LIGHTHOUSES AND STATIONS. TRIP TO ITHACA” was a project promoted by IES Campo de San Alberto (Spain) in which the following countries participated: Croatia, Greece Portugal and Slovenia. The Project tried to combine the artistic-historical dimension of emigration (with all its human, economic, historical and labour aspects) with the key competences that students were intended to achieve once the project had finished in order to improve their employability.Its main objective was to attract students to adult education: Either young students with a history of school failure or older students with scarce qualifications and to prepare them in a better way for the labour market, providing them with the necessary skills.Migration was be the main point of interest and gathered all the actions of the project.This partnership generally aimed to:a.- Innovative approaches to address their target groups, by providing more attractive education and training programmes, ;use of participatory approaches and ICT-based methodologies; greater effectiveness of activities for the benefit of local communities ;new or improved practices to cater for the needs of disadvantaged groups and to deal with social, linguistic and cultural diversity; the opportunity to be awarded the European Language Label for excellence in language learning or teaching.b.- To achieve a more modern, dynamic, committed and professional environment inside the organisation: ready to integrate good practices and new methods into daily activities; open to synergies with educational organizations and to create OPEN RESOURCES TRANSFERIBLE TO SIMILAR INSTITUTIONS.c.- To increase capacity and professionalism to work at EU/level: improved management competences and internationalisation strategies; reinforced cooperation with partners from other countries, other fields of education, training ; to organise EU projects in the field of education, training and youth; increased quality in the preparation, implementation, monitoring and follow-up of EU projects.To achieve this, all the actions were guided by the methodological principles of activity, functionality, and socialization with the aim of attaining a motivational uplift in our students as well as an improvement in their significant learning. We were also based on the principle of learning by doing.The use of these innovative methodologies helped to improve the chance of employabilitiy for young students, providing them with the neccesary tools to cope with the requirements of the European labour market, whereas for the older learners, they allowed them to adapt themselves to exigencies of modern society. Both target groups l benefited from each other´s knowledge : young students helped older ones in the correct use of ICTs and English language, and older students provided the younger ones with stragegies and clues that might help them in their migratory experience. That was the reason why we considered intergeneracional learning a millstone in this project.The activities were very closely related to the key competences and were divided in two blocks:a-Those which encouraged loving cinema ,thinking, writing and speaking in adult education through the films chosen(debates,brainstormings,searches… )b-Activities connected with the use of ICTs as tools for searching and sharing information at a European level (the use of internet, video cameras and programs, platforms…)By means of the cooperative work at a European level and with the 5 intellectual outputs and the planning and implementation of the campaign to attract students, at the end of the project we intended the participant students to improve their communicative skills in languages, in ICT, and in practical questions in order to survive in a country where they may go. Through these activities we expected to achieve these results:1.- A Campaign to attract students to Adult Education. learning English and ICT and visiting each other's country.2.- Intellectual Outputs: the Guide of Pedagogical Education Resources (""Cinema and Migration"" (O1), the documentaries about employment and migration, the Cultural and Didactic guide, the Dictionary and Lessons for Survival and the web page.3.- The Multiplier event: “ Emigration and Culture in Europe Nowadays” and The Seminar and final conference: ""Cinema and Migration in Europe. Results of the Project"". Zagreb, June 2016The title “LIGHTHOUSES AND STATIONS. TRIP TO ITHACA” is a metaphor of migration due to labour reasons and, at the same time, an invitation to lifelong learning, an invitation to a travel to the past, to ITC and languages and to the future…"
