While visiting different cultural sights and different places in Scotland, learning about companies or institutions and – if possible – a college/school, participants will improve intercultural knowledge about culture and education. Our main focus will be on literature and film, tourism, but also on vocational education, thus vocational teachers or those dealing with entrepreneurship might be specially interested. Other interested teachers are invited to participate as well. Additionally we will try to give ideas about establishing projects.

Objectives:

- Experience different places of interest in Edinburgh, the Western part of Scotland, Glasgow

- Examine different approaches, tools and methods, e.g. cooperative learning that help to develop materials for classroom use (e.g. Harry Potter, novels and films)

- Learn about vocational education

- Learn about European projects and project management, e.g. etwinning

Languages: English and German

The final programme with information about accommodation and places to be visited depends on the number of participants and will be published to registered participants at least 3 months before departure. It is planned to stay in Edinburgh, Fort William and Glasgow for 2 days each. Bus or equivalent transport facilities will be provided.
