KEY- IDEAS FOR A QUESTIONNAIRE CONCERNING ACTIVE EUROPEAN CITISENSHIP
4. Questions and doubts concerning didactic innovation related to the European Dimension
In the recent
political and cultural debate the principle of an active European citizenship
is one of the important purposes of the educational systems of European
Union.
The European Peace Project (Profiles Educating for Active Citizenship
in Europe - Comenius action 3.1) involving the collaboration of Spain, Denmark,
Greece and Italy, aims at comparing the knowledge of the professional, cultural
and vocational characteristics of the teachers of the collaborating
countries for a definition of the professional profile of the teacher who
commits him/herself to the formation of an active European citizenship.
One of the
purposes of the project is also to investigate the attitudes of the partner
countries teachers about an active
European citizenship and the activities
and the experiences that they are already having with their students.
The present
questionnaire has been devised in order to collect some information on this
topic. The answers will lead to a
better definition of how the school system is facing this problem in the various
countries, to a comparison among various situations and to a better definition
of those critical aspects which require new educational measures.
Thanks for
your collaboration.
