Non-Formal Learning Methods And Techniques For Inclusion And Diversity

Course Description

The diversity of 21st-century students creates many challenges for teachers who did not experience the same diversity when they were students themselves. Among these, the most important challenge is to find a balance between “high” and “low” expectations that meet the different needs of students in a classroom and the most appropriate ways of working with students to build an inclusive learning environment.

In the process of education, non-formal education has a special role, integrated at the level of school education and youth, culture, sport, leisure, continuing vocational training, and adult education.

Our course has a modular structure, it focuses on the holistic approach to curriculum development, the teacher-student partnership in the learning process, and the principles and particularities of interactive and self-directed learning.
