Description

The problem to which this project relates is mainly the low existence of educational resources in the fields of civic education, human rights and citizen participation, which is all the more serious as the specific training of teachers is unsystematized. The project aims to create educational resources for pre-university teachers, with a focus on
discipline Civic education - Social education, but also for teachers of History or Romanian Language and Literature. We will create a working group that will first identify the existing resources. In the second phase, the group will analyze and select contents and competencies from the programs "Social education" - grades 5-8, "Social studies" - 12th grade, "History" 6th, 7th grades, 10th and 11th and from the Curriculum to the School Decision - “Education for Development”, “Intercultural Education”, “Education for Democracy”, “Civic Education”, “International Humanitarian Law” and “Media Skills” . Educational materials will be created for the selected contents and will be tested for two semesters in the partner schools. Teachers will receive a set of resources for conducting at least four lessons and a form that will be applied to students at the end of each class. The teacher will have to complete a report for each lesson. Based on the questionnaires completed by the students and the teachers'' reports, the resource packages will be improved to meet the educational needs. At the end, there will be at least 3 training sessions for 45 teachers from the counties targeted by the project. Resource packages will also be uploaded to a site created specifically for this purpose. The Transcena Association will deal with the educational part of the project, and E-Romnja with the coordination in the territory of teachers and schools from rural and small urban areas.
