TRAIN THE TRAINER

We created a practical training using artistic and physical activities underpinned by art-educational methods to provide trainers, teachers and educators with tools to support and enrich the curriculum vitae of youngsters in an alternative and innovative way.

Focusing on eight 21st century skills:

  1. flexibility,

  2. initiative,

  3. social skills,

  4. leadership,

  5. creativity,

  6. critical thinking,

  7. collaboration,

  8. communication.

Focusing on four sessions:

  1. Knowing myself: Through some activities from the handbooks, which have the intention to develop competences, we explore the inner world, knowing that first of all we need to know ourselves first in order to understand others.

  2. Knowing the world: Using the same strategy, we explore activities that are related to the environment (natural and urban), using our perception and tools to create representations of how we see the world (including the others).

  3. Knowing myself in the world: is to connect experiences and creations made during the first and the second session in order to work on a personal narrative.

  4. Giving to the world/communication strategies: prepare an exhibition of the creative works and to prepare a short presentation by each participant. This session is also important to evaluate the training.
