FECE is looking for 3 youth workers from Bulgaria to join the YOUth Journey Design: Building LIFECOMP Skills Together training course in Calarasi, Romania.
What if learning could be designed the way we design experiences – with intention, emotion, and impact?
This 6-day Erasmus+ training course bridges the gap between what neuroscience tells us about how people learn and what actually happens in our youth programs. You’ll move beyond gut feeling and good intentions, gaining access to research-backed frameworks and practical tools that help you design learning experiences young people will actually remember and use.
You’ll discover:
How the brain actually processes and retains new information (and how to design with this in mind, not against it)
Why some learning experiences stick while others fade within days
The 5E Experience Design Model that guides learners through meaningful transformation
Vision Backcasting – a framework for designing backwards from your desired impact
How to recognize and support 6 different learner typologies, from life-long learners to those stuck in the status quo
Practical strategies from 6 major learning theories (Behaviorism, Cognitivism, Constructivism, Social Learning, Humanism, Experiential Learning)
How cognitive biases shape (and sometimes distort) the learning process
Game-based learning principles that boost motivation and engagement
Hosting organisation: Monomyths (Romania)
Sending organisation: Foundation for Entrepreneurship, Culture and Education (Bulgaria)
