The third meeting of Evive was a big success. The partners worked actively together and it was possible to create a draft version of the modules of the EVive Curriculum on common European shared values. It consist of the description of competences, contents, methodological hints, addressed future situation of the learners and hints concerning the aproximate teaching time.

The third workshop of the EVIVE project takes currently place at the American University in Bulgaria in Sofia. In the first part of the meeting the concept maps are presented and discussed which have been obtained in the different partner countries through interviews and questionaires with teachers of the vocational training system. The maps serve as a basis to develop a curricular structure for teaching common European values in the second part of the workshop

This will be found the results of the project on this website soon.

The curriculum serves also as a basis to develop exemplary didactic materials and learning resources.

Today we had an interdiciplinary scientific exchange in Paderborn, Germany concerning research methods and discussed strategies to gather information concerning values in enterprises and vocational education. Several PHD students presented their ideas and discussed the different approaches. With several posters the participants were informed about approaches to analyse values.

Also the results and the positive trends concerning an increasing shared values system in Europe were stressed. This could already be seen in former approaches like in the results of the EUROBAROMETER69 report the majority of EU27 citizens (54% in 2008 in contrast to 48% in 2006) think that with focus on European shared values the European Union Member States are very close to each other.
