Abstract
The STEP project (School Teacher Education Environment Program) “Citizenship pedagogy and teacher education: an alliance between school and territory” is based upon transectorial orizontal priorities of basic and transversal competences development through innovative methods, strengthening the teacher profession, the research and education quality by exchanging best practices and transnational cooperation. The project’s aim is developing and improving preschol and primary interdisciplinarycurriculum to create relationship between children school experience and informal education, using sustainable environmental education, starting from major social problems. Active Citizenship Education for sustainable and durable development can be integrated into all areas of the curriculum, especially into cross curriculum themes. It implies children and teachers involvement in authentic experiences aimed at achieving a sustainable future. This also improves the connection between initial and continuing teacher training education. The action-research as methods is an experiencial learning of citizenship education for all the partecipants, which come from Schools University, Political Institutions, and social organizations. This project’s purposes are: 1. identifing analysis tools to explore territories culture, in a multidiscipinary approach. 2. developing a research model of active citizenship education 3. to develop teachers and pupils skills for planning across-the-curriculum learning experiences in active citizenship education for sustainable and durable development and care of the socio-cultural heritage 4. improving interregional and international cooperation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
