Working methodology during the Grundtvig workshop

First of all we have to bear in mind we will participate in a working seminar, it will not be a conference.

That’s why there will be 15-20 participants, but no more.

There will be 3 different types of sessions:
- workshop sessions
- informative sessions
- plenary sessions

Each of the workshop sessions, will have 2 or 3 people expert on the topic which will be dealt with or representatives of an expert organization, who will present the topic, from their own/their organization point of view. After that, there will be a debate the conclusions of which will be gathered by the person in charge of the session, together with the moderator and the people that presented the topic.

This working methodology will be used in the following sessions:
- Adult Learner’s Week
- Training of Trainers
- City Council’s role in the organization of adult education
- Evaluation of the learning process.

We will also have informative sessions, with a debate once the presentation is finished:
- Erasmus+
- EBSN-EBSN Academy presentation
- Adult Education at a penitentiary
- On-line training of trainers presentation

The evaluation, dissemination and conclusions session will be discussed as a plenary, with a moderator and the conclusions will be agreed by all the participants.

The participants come from:

- The Netherlands
- The United Kingdom
     - England
- Norway
- Portugal
      - Madeira
- Hungary
- France
- Sweden
- Italy
- Slovenia
- Spain:
      - Catalunya (Girona i Barcelona)
      - Andalusia (Granada)
      - València (Alacant)
      - Madrid

Four Key Areas

These are the four key areas we think should be taken into account in the planning of Adult Education, at the level of literacy and basic skills:

1. Awareness and dissemination.

2. Training of trainers (specialisation).

3. Materials and methods.

4. Evaluation of the learning process
