Details:
The 4-day residential workshop combines theoretical and practical
elements in a fun and participatory way. We developed the workshop for professional educators who want to increase their personal competence in handling, using and exploiting digital media in their work, either in formal education or in the civil society sector. The workshop will raise participants’ awareness of the multitude of ways in which video can seamlessly be integrated into the learning environment, equipping them with basic skills to create and share their own educational video materials. The programme of the workshop is designed in a way so that a participant will:
• learn the basic technical skills for using video;
• sound and editing software;
• learn ways to handle equipment as a part of the learning curve,
• develop activities where video or photo are used as a communication tool;
• create a personal audiovisual product that embodies their learning outcome.
During the workshop participants work in a structure that gives them
opportunities to create media, receive feedback, and continuously
improve their skills. Being a residential workshop, the programme
becomes an active learning field, where everyone has the choice to
continue acquiring new skills, socialize or express themselves beyond the formal hours.
Who can take this workshop?
This workshop is designed for enthusiastic educators, teachers, facilitators, animators and other training professionals working with
groups in formal or informal education. No previous experience with
media is required. All the participants of the course will be awarded with a course completion certificate by the Foundation. Every applicant must fill out an application form and conform to payment deadlines. Based on our experience, the minimum group size is 14, the maximum is 22 people. The workshop will only take place if these numbers are accomplished.
Our Methodology
The method of the workshop is based on learning by experience.
In our approach we invite participants to point out where they find
themselves at that moment in the learning process, what they want
to learn and how they want to develop themselves. It is focused on
the experience of the individual and it is connected to the specific
needs and the level of learning of the participant at that moment. The program is a tool for the participant and not the other way around.
Equipment & context
The Foundation gives priority to learning over technology. We provide the following basic equipment: tripods, SD and HD video cameras, basic microphones, and two editing stations. Participants are encouraged to bring their own devices in order to maximize the transfer of new knowledge to their working environment and daily practice. We are a non-profit foundation run by experts. We do not produce commercial media and are not affiliated with any broadcaster. We have, however, produced independent youth media for over three years. A showcase of projects and amateur productions is available
below.
Costs:
The cost of the workshop is 375 Eur (accommodation and meals are included in the price). There is a 15% discount for the unemployed or for groups of 5 people or more. Travel costs are covered by participants.
Accommodation
