With our Research Centre at eCampus University - CITOYEN.NE.S - we have just accomplished the working programme of an Erasmus+ small-scale cooperation led by the Istituto Comprensivo Statale "Viale Legnano" in Parabiago (Milan, Lombardy, Italy) and featuring a network of 4 schools (Scuola Brunacci of the Istituto Thouar-Gonzaga in Milan, Collège Yves Klein and Ecole élémentaire Lanza in La Colle-sur-Loup, PACA, France), the Association Européenne des Enseignants - France and local authorities.

It's been a successful experimentation of three key activities among the ones we developed inside our Citizenship Education Curriculum (for primary and lower secondary levels in this case).

It's also been a successful experience of transnational cooperation with deep pedagogical aims: we are planning to propose it to other schools in other EU countries to further experiment and develop the European scope of our Curriculum!

"Multiscale CIVIC EDUCATION FOR THE EUROPEAN EDUCATION AREA" 

Teachers Training initiative for European teachers: open online presentations, academic certification and co-designed classroom transfer activities

We work on citizenship education in an innovative perspective of critical pedagogy. We offer EU teachers from any national school system and all school levels (ISCED from 1 to 4 in particular) a free experimental programme that provides them with training and practicl tools aimed at developing their own citizenship skills and their ability to enhance them in their didactic activity and educational context. Training programmes are tailored to individual/local needs; a final academic ceritfication, specifying the total amount of training hours, is provided upon their accomplishment (this includes the documentation of classroom didactic activities implemented and designed with us).

General presentation of the training opportunities and the various and creative experimental learning activities for direct classroom implementation is provided through open online webinars. The next scheduled one willtake place on January, 16th 2024, via Go To Meeting. To get access or to fix new dates for you and your colleagues, just write us at citoyennes@uniecampus.it
