In order to create an active learning environment the participants will be learning by doing with the support of the team. If you are asking yourself questions like:• How do I handle group dynamics?• Is there any new technique or method I could use to fresh up my style?• Which games and exercises suit the most the needs of a group?• How can I perform on the level that I want?• How can I connect with a group?• How do I design a workshop or program for groups?• What is the purpose of using outdoor, drama, and media in a group activity? This project is for you!The whole exchange will be based upon non-formal education methods. The aim is to allow participants to “learn by doing”, so that they acquire some knowledge based upon the experience they withdraw from each exercise or the connection between them. Some of the possible themes:• Games and exercises• Group dynamics• Media tools• Presentation skills• Story telling• Theories of learning• Working process minded and goal focused• Creating a concept about non-formal learning• Education by creating context• Language as creative and generative instrument
