NO ALTERNATIVE FACTS – Virtual Conference: Wednesday 2nd December 15.00 – 18.00 CET

Tackling Intentional Misinformation in Digital Technologies through the development of Critical Thinking Skills and Media Literacy.

Young people today are growing up in a globalised world where they are processing information from a wide variety of sources; where ‘Fake News’ is big news and where it’s difficult to tell what is real or deliberately made up to misinform!

We all need critical thinking skills to navigate potential pitfalls when consuming news or searching for information, particularly when using online sources and social media. Media literacy is also crucial for sustaining democracy by knowing which information sources to trust and which media are trustworthy.

Accelerated digitalisation has brought challenges and opportunities for activities in all sectors.

Updates from our LLCC-project

After almost a year, the project Language Learning through Culture and Cooking (LLCC) has entered a key phase when it comes to the successful implementation of this new and innovative EU-funded project. It tries to combine the topics of language learning, cookery and intercultural dialogue creating a totally new training programme.

Right now, the project partner’s from six partner countries are working on the development of new training materials that will be tested on our first transnational training in January. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we will organise this event with trainers from all partner countries as an online format.

We are looking forward to further developing this interesting project where we try to make language learning more innovative!

FSEPS – Our second Webinar!

Read the ALTER project’s nationals & transnational reports!

The reports offer interesting insights from the primary and secondary research carried out in all partner countries

Key findings from Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Austria and Spain.

The ALTER project’s Transnational Report has been published on our website, consolidating the results from all partners’ National Reports that are also uploaded on the website’s “reports” section! The reports offer interesting insights from the primary and secondary research carried out in all consortium countries (Turkey, Austria, Bulgaria, Greece, Spain) about the existing web-based professional profiling methodologies & practices, as well as the existing level of digital skills & competences of adults attending alternative educational institutions.

More specifically, the transnational report summarizes the desk research and stakeholder’s interviews (50 in total) on how digital and social media are used for job search at transnational level and, in addition, discusses the key findings reached through organized focus groups and online surveys with:

a) educators of adults (58 in total), expressing opinions about their level of digital skills and
b) adults having dropped out of school and attending alternative educational institutions (96 in total).

The Transnational Report is available in English, while its executive summary is translated in all partners’ languages.

Join the workshop provided by the CIM consortium during the ERASMUS days 2020!

16th October – 10:00-11:30 CET

On behalf of the CIM consortium we invite you to a workshop on how to make online learning events more attractive, innovative and truly collaborative. We offer this workshop to experience new participatory and collaborative online tools in creative thinking sessions.

CIM is an ERASMUS+ Knowledge Alliance working on how to embed Creativity and Innovation in courses, modules and learning projects in (Higher) Education and in practical informal learning contexts in business. Since the Corona crises our consortium has completely changed to online learning and collaboration and developed and piloted blended learning formats that could at least buffer some of the missing direct encounters in creative learning spaces.

During the session at the ERASMUS days we would like to share our experiences and learn about your ideas, demands and expectations. This workshop is at the same time a warm-up for our large 2-day online conference that we are going to carry out on Dec. 10th and 11th.
