This seminar provides a mutual learning opportunity for those who intend to use e-learning in non-formal education activities with young people. Learning from each others’ practices and uses of e-learning will be complemented by educational and theoretical input on the use of e-learning and debates regarding indicators and standards in the use of e-learning.
Aim
The seminar aims at discussing and sharing experiences of using cv e-learning in intercultural non-formal education today, and identifying quality standards and criteria, as a contribution to the process of improving the quality of non-formal education.
Objectives
The main objectives of the activity are:
• to analyse current practices of e-learning in the framework of intercultural non-formal education activities, using as a starting point the study being carried out by the Directorate of Youth and Sport of the Council of Europe;
• to share examples and practices of the use of e-learning for the purposes of non-formal education;
• to analyse the challenges and possibilities of the use of e-learning for non-formal education activities;
• to propose guiding principles and quality criteria for the use of e-learning for non-formal education activities.
Format and methodology
The seminar will bring together 30 participants for two working days. The seminar is organised as a mutual learning situation, favouring discussions, working groups and sharing of good practices. The methodology of the seminar will be mostly non-formal. Experts from outside the youth field may also be invited.
The 6th Meeting of the Trainers’ Pool of the Directorate of Youth and Sport will be held right after this seminar. It is foreseen that some members of the Trainers’ Pool will also participate in this seminar.
