Competence oriented approach

The course is based on the principles of participatory adult education, by embodying participants’ experiences and fostering the exchange of their ideas, proposals and materials. Its focus is not merely on the didactic aspect of the Dialectics and the Theatre strategies but also on the participants’ social and cultural knowledge gained through education and teaching to different target groups throughout Europe. During the course, the following techniques will be implemented: working in subgroups and pairs, role playing, guided conversation brainstorming, drama and experiential activities. Participants will also be given hand-outs, original materials lists of teaching strategies.

Blended learning modalities

Teachers will share ideas and experiences on using Dialectics and theatrical techniques and strategies in teaching and learning through a dedicated e-learning platform to use before and after the course.
