Museum-Based Learning in Split

One-Week course in:
Split

Description

What can we do to improve conceptual learning, deeper engagement with ideas, and build the capacity to confront complex 21^st-century challenges in today’s education system? Well, we must go beyond the classroom where authentic communication and active learning truly happen.

Museums, natural science centers, or art galleries are no longer places where people passively and silently observe. Rather, they prompt visitors’ curiosity and encourage them to ask questions while looking at unknown objects.

What more natural and meaningful way of learning than through experiencing a new learning environment, developing critical thinking, and learning by doing to develop higher-level thinking skills and creativity?

The course will clarify how study visits and contemporary exhibition spaces can promote curricular and extracurricular learning.

The participants will visit several museums in the area of Split: the Ethnographic Museum, the Maritime Museum, the Meštrović Gallery, and the Hidden Dalmatia Center.

In each of the institutions, the participants will see exhibitions, get to know how the institution collaborates with schools and teachers, and take part in workshops run by professional pedagogues.

Participants will also exploit the course as a social experience for networking with colleagues from all around Europe. They will learn how to stay sustainable while their own and their students’ Erasmus mobilities, and how to use and support local life and culture with their Erasmus projects either with the participants or in collaboration with institutions in their own communities.

By the end of the course, the participants will know how to blend informal learning spaces and their formal classrooms to foster 21^st-century skills and active learning. Moreover, they will understand how new technologies can help preserve but also experience history and culture.

Finally, they will acquire deeper knowledge of Croatian cultural and natural heritage, and sustainable development.
