The Training Course “Log In to the society” with 8 partner organizations and 34 participants (+ 2 treners and 1 facilitator) from Poland, Latvia, Greece, UK, Czech Republic, Spain, Lithuania and Estonia will take a place in Poland, Gdansk 26 September - 02 October, 2016 (7 days, excluding travel days).“Log In to the society” is a training course able to bring revolution in the way we act and work today in the youth field. Bringing together 34 youth workers from different countries aims to show that there are not good and bad activities, there is no good or bad learning way. As today more and more young people are found on-line there is a need for the youth workers to adjust their skills to new technologies. On the same time there is the ongoing belief that youth programs can be designed either by using outdoor activities or new technology methods. We believe that fun and learning is easier by combining both!The aim of "“Log In to the society” is to provide new knowledge and skills and find creative ways on combining analog & open-air activities in youth work with digital tools and applications that are used by youngsters, through a hands-on approach and experience.Today youngsters deal more and more with technology, internet and mobile devices. Most often they watch videos, listen to music and have full time access with their friends. They see themselves mostly as consumers of digital media but not so much as creators of digital material, even though thousand of pictures are put on Instagram and short movies are shared every day.Adults fear that youngsters lose their time, their contact with the “real” world and social competences while staring into their screens. Many adults have a hard time understanding or appreciating digital skills youngsters have, and their motivation to be constantly online. This often leads adults to ban digital devices during educational activities, closing themselves from getting to know new digital tools and very likely getting into conflicts with youngsters.As youth workers, we must be ready and open to learn and use tools youngsters know and additionally find creative ways to include them in our work and dig it up our methods. With “Log In to the society” we are introducing methods that value the needs of both sides and support communication between them, by looking for ways how youth workers can keep on track with “digitalized youth” and include digital devices into their work: being Online as a developmental tool to foster creative outdoor activites which are promoting a healthy lifestyle in balance with new technologies.During "Log In to the society”we are working with a wide spectrum of tools and applications to experience creative and funny ways of using them and also prepare participants to develop their own ideas for new methods, to apply them during the final session. The participants are invited to find comprehensive educational aspects of digital tools in youth work with the aim of including youngsters and apply innovative learning activities in open-air environment. Through fun loving non formal learning activities (mostly outdoor) we will manage to meet the project objectives and support the participants to :• get friendly with popular digital/on-line tools and learn how to combine them with outdoor non formal activities• experience various spaces (open-air, analog/digital) to create a supporting learning environment (fun loving)• foster open attitude towards new technologies and the use of INTERNET at youth work • develop creative and innovative digital methods for youth work • develop new youth projects based on the innovative educational methodology of “Log In to the society”Project final achievements will reflect our main goal. You can learn individually, interacting with society, with others, Online, outdoor and indoor, in groups, in couples. You can learn beyond any imagination! You can always learn it Your Way! To achieve our goal a guide with new methods of learning for youth work activities will be created. It will be called "Log In to the society : Learn it your way". It will contain all the methods used in the program to promote the combination of outdoor methodology with digital Online tools. It is healthy! It is fun! It is inclusive! It is youth work!
