Citizenship Education is defined as a cross-curricular educational principle (Unterrichtsprinzip Politische Bildung) which applies to all subjects and to all types of school, at each level.
Inclusive Citizenship Education reflects on inclusion and exclusion dynamics and it will be the starting point and red thread of the course.
The course will cover fundamentals of Project-based Learning and (short) films as teaching tools as well.AimsStudents are expected to become familiar with Inclusive Citizenship Education, Project-based Learning and teaching strategies and tools for inclusion.
They are furthermore expected to develop/strengthen teaching abilities, including:
1.1 Communication skills: ability to convey evidence-based ideas in discussions, capacity to convey one’s point of view in a discussion.
1.2 Methodological skills: understanding of multiple perspectives and reflecting on the plurality of students' needs and interests in teaching.MethodologyThis course is designed on active education and student-centred methodologies. Therefore, students’ active participation is required.
The course will involve activities around (short) films, communication exercises, presentations and group discussions among other.
The course will take place entirely online.
