Democratic Citizenship Teaching and Learning

Logo des Decitel Projekts, das skizzierte Menschen auf einem halben Erdball zeigt. Der Schriftzug darunter lautet: Democratic Citizenship Teaching & LearningThe Democratic Citizenship Teaching and Learning (DeCiTeL) project aims to improve teacher education policies and practices across Europe.
A collaboration between higher education institutions, formal and non-formal citizenship education providers and European networks will develop and trial innovative teacher training methods and provide teachers with authentic international learning experiences.

 

The project will enhance the EU dimension of teacher education by proposing common curriculum elements, learning modules and methodological resources.

 

Particular focus will be given to strengthening teachers' ability to teach the civic dimension, participation, and democratic competence, which are important key competences in times of polarisation, global change, and the challenges facing democratic societies.

 

As sustainable civic learning should involve the entire school community, including parents, community groups, and NGOs, in the spirit of the 'whole school approach' (WSA), the partners also consider democracy-related learning to be a collaborative task for teachers.

 

To create the basis for sustainable change, the project will bridge the gap between teaching and policy at local and European levels. Through its initial work on establishing a Teachers Alliance Network, the project aims to contribute to a framework for the exchange of good practices, methods, and tools across national and curricular boundaries.
