Updates from our LLCC-project

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!

Read the ALTER project’s nationals & transnational reports!

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.

Our second Newsletter contains more details.

How to create attractive online events?

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.

If you are interested just join the interactive workshop via the link

Zur Anmeldung

 

Inhalte der Breakout-Sessions

Integration in den Arbeitsmarkt (Leitung ÖJAB)

Da die Aufnahme in den lokalen Arbeitsmarkt ein Kernelement jedes Integrationsprozesses ist, möchten wir in der Breakout-Session „Integration in den Arbeitsmarkt“ über die Herausforderungen und Möglichkeiten diskutieren. Wir werden uns die Frage stellen, welche Rolle die Nationalstaaten in diesem Thema spielen und welche Chancen aber auch Risiken sich durch europäische Zusammenarbeit ergeben.

In den Austausch fließen Ergebnisse und Erkenntnisse der Projekte COMPASS; Europe3E – Europe through Young Eyes: Exchange. Explore. Exhibit., EUpTRAIN, SASSI Working On und ALMIT ein.

Zukunftskompetenzen und Nachhaltigkeit (Leitung: die Berater)

In der Breakout-Session „Zukunftskompetenzen und Nachhaltigkeit“ wollen wir gemeinsam diskutieren, welche Herausforderungen sich für den Weiterbildungsbereich künftig ergeben. Welche Kompetenzen müssen vermittelt werden, um den grundlegenden Veränderungen durch die digitale Transformation und dem Anspruch auf Nachhaltigkeit gerecht zu werden? Wie kann entsprechende Kompetenzentwicklung angelegt werden, wie können wir sie messen, und sind wir als Weiterbildungsangebote dafür gerüstet? Wie können wir Sorge tragen, dass hier niemand zurückbleibt?

In den Austausch fließen Ergebnisse der Projekte DIGIMEDIA, DIGISETS, No Alternative Facts, Time 4 Society, TOPPLANT und COOCOU ein.

COVID-19 and ageism – the view from outside the UK

COVID-19 and ageism – the view from outside the UK

Ageism is not just a UK issue, in fact the United Nations has recognised this as an international one with them highlighting the importance of older people in society.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought ageism into the national debate. We’ve seen prominent journalists arguing that a ‘cull of the elderly’ could benefit the economy, sparking necessary debates about attitudes to older people. The horrifying situation in care homes, and the extremely difficult situation facing many older people who are self-isolating, has opened many people’s eyes to the ageism that is rife in our society.

80 In-depth Interviews provide a better understanding of Intercultural Competence in the Social and Healthcare Sector

80 In-depth Interviews provide a better understanding of Intercultural Competence in the Social and Healthcare Sector

  • Which intercultural competences are needed in the social and healthcare sector today?
  • What kind of difficulties do social and healthcare workers face daily when dealing with cultural diversity amongst patients?
  • What are the most important areas to learn about in terms of working in a multicultural environment?

 

The I-CARE project wants to address these important questions, and the first step to gaining a better understand of the context is to listen to the people directly involved.
That is why, in the few last months, the project Partners interviewed online and by phone a large number of professionals: nearly 80 in total, from the United Kingdom, Denmark, Germany, Austria, Italy and Greece. This precious group of interviewees included people of all ages (from 24 to 71 years old), mainly females, operating with vulnerable groups/migrant populations in the social and healthcare sector: nurses, caregivers, medical assistants, adult care social workers, occupational therapists, social pedagogues, educators, psychologists, teachers and counsellors in care educations, volunteers, home helpers, managers of nursing homes and many more.

A great effort, during the COVID-19 pandemic and its containment measures, that has given important results and information to the project staff to proceed with their work on the next actions!
