PROJECT OUTPUTS
During 27 months of the existence of the project Learning by Doing – Attainment of Basic Competences in ECEC (ABC for kindergartens), we will work on the following intellectual outputs which are connected with each other and together they create one unit:
ABC Manual for Teachers (O1)
methodological guidance for ECEC teachers on how to integrate PBL and TBL in pre-school education with practical activities and comprehensive overview of lesson plans, assessment techniques and various additional resources
ABC Train the Trainer Course (O2)
training programme for ECEC teacher training providers on how to train students in pedagogy and teachers willing to enhance their professionaldevelopment with focus on learner-centred methods such as on PBL and TBL
*ABC Piloting Sessions – testing of innovative outputs in practice within the project lifetime and obtaining feedback on intellectual outputs’ usability, applicability and potential for further exploitation.
*ABC Dissemination Conference – promotimg project’s success and fostering transnational cooperation on the topic and allowing for wider impact.
