Current European research shows that a flexible approach to learning is favoured by a growing number of students who need to fit working life within the framework of learning new skills; in addition, older members of the workforce wish to engage in life long learning. For many people full-time attendance at a local training organisation is problematic due to disability, geographical location or working patterns. The aim of the project is to develop Educational Podcasting (audio/media broadcasting over the internet) to enable these learners to gain knowledge through part-time attendance whilst maintaining the personal support of a tutor.

The six partners, from Greece, Italy, Latvia, Romania, Poland and the UK have met regularly over the life of the project to develop the product, evaluate activities, plan tasks and resolve issues. In the second year of the project, trainees have also been involved in these meetings to ensure the successful piloting of the project. Effective communication between meetings has be ensured via e-mail, video conferencing, on-line meetings and a project blog.

The majority of the podcasts that are presented in this blog, have been developed by the students of the project which have enhanced their technological together with their cultural skills.

CEES & MWSE as Silent Partners







The number of followers of flexible approach towards teaching is constantly growing. The fact was also noticed by the organisers of the international conference, namely Malopolska School of Economics (MWSE).

Six partner organisations, representing respectively Greece, Italy, Latvia, Romania, Poland and Great Britain, are involved in the project realisation. Polish partners include Center of Education and Enterprise Support from Rzeszow (CEES) and MWSE from Tarnow.

MWSE from Tarnow has already selected those students who were interested in taking part in international workshop held in Athens in three months time (June 2010). Interviews were conducted right after the conference on 19th of March 2010. Barrie Greenwood was the jury chairperson. Two female 1st grade students (1st year of Tourism and Recreation and one from 2nd year of Management) will represent MWSE.
