Programme: Erasmus+, under the action of Strategic Partnerships for higher education / Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices
Topic: Cultural heritage / European Year of Cultural Heritage / EU citizenship / EU awareness and democracy/ New innovative programs / educational methods / development of training courses
CONTEXT: The project is aimed at 1st and 2nd level students as well as academic lecturers. It concerns shaping and transferring the cultural heritage of Europe, its multicultural image, transnational character, which are the basis for shaping the sense of social and cultural unity of Europeans and for strengthening European identity and active citizenship; the presence of a European cultural heritage in selected partner cities. The city is understood as a tool for finding a cultural community between the national heritage of partner countries and the cultural heritage of Europe. This is particularly important in the period of intensified migration and the phenomenon of cultural transformation, where the boundaries of national cultures are blurred and create multiple identities. It is equally important for native Europeans to understand the cultural community of nations and minority and majority societies that make up Europe. This approach to cultural heritage equips young people with new civic competences, expected in the labor market in a multicultural society. The project strengthens the internationalization of partner universities, supports the professional development of lecturers, implements the principles of the Bologna system and the modernization agenda of higher education. Introduces modern teaching methods and a modular learning (blended learning) program based on stationary classes and e-tutorials.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES:
- Strengthening and expanding international cooperation of partner universities, including the newly created unit in the Institute of European Studies of the JU (Department of Mediterranean Politics and Culture)
- Improving the quality of teaching, through the use and implementation in partner institutions, digital technologies and on-line teaching
- Adaptation of the program offer to the needs of students and labor market requirements, including work in an intercultural environment
- Building awareness of cultural unity based on common cultural heritage of Europe (on the example of selected cities)
- Strengthening the scientific position of project participants by enabling them to develop professional, international research, scientific and publishing activities
- Facilitation of access to the developed project results by open access rule
TARGET GROUPS: BA and MA students at partner institutions, lecturers participating in the project; students and lecturers from outside the partnership; local authorities, policy makers, representatives of science and education.
PROJECT RESULTS:
an international curriculum of the modular course (curriculum) / e-lectures as a component of the full-time course (20 e-lecture units in each partner institution) / a common curriculum for personalized e-tutorials / a summer school program / an international student textbook, in English (printed 600 copies for dissemination in libraries, conferences, meetings with decision-makers, etc.) and in translation into partner languages (published in electronic version or available on-line) / the international bibliographic list of literature for the implementation of the module / a jointly developed student assessment tool / 3 conferences ending the project and promoting its results (1 in each partner institution)
Dissemination: Project results will be available on university platforms / websites or on YouTube channel / social networks. The results will also be disseminated during conferences ending the project and as part of the own activities of partner institutions (conferences, publications, lectures, etc.
Added value: a synergy between higher education and school education. Based on the results achieved in the project, an in-service training course for teachers in the EU will be developed after the end of the project. The course announcement and the recruitment of teachers will be conducted through the EPALE platform and the European School Gateway.
