16. December 2014: Getting Started with New Info
This was the first project meeting in LHB Dortmund after the first Transnational Meeting in Puerto del Rosario. Susanne Auer and Jochen Steier presented the results of this meeting. They report that the schools in France and Italy could not take part in the project any more for organizational reasons and had left the project. Now there were only 3 schools taking part (Germany, Finland and Spain) and it became clear which subject matters were mainly allocated to which school: Germany: Employability and Sustainability, Finland: Video Production and Sustainability, Spain: Social Media and Video Production.

29. January 2015: Further Education for Teachers on Synergy Effects and intercultural Learning.
Susanne Auer and Philipp Lüttgens attended a teacher seminar in the “BIZ” in Dortmund (Job information center) in the Heinrich-Schmitz-Bildungshaus in Dortmund, about intercultural learning. There the teachers from the different vocational colleges in Dortmund exchanged their experience with students from different cultures and planned a closer cooperation among each vocational school in order to show young people the various opportunities they have when trying to find a job or an apprenticeship. All schools offered to show their specific professional fields to youngsters in order to inform them of the great variety of jobs that can be learnt in Dortmund and in Germany generally. On the basis of this seminar Philipp Lüttgens and Susanne Auer planned to practise a closer cooperation with their neighboring school, the RBB, where future film makers are educated and trained on their jobs.
Furthermore they decided to integrate the visit of a market of job opportunities (“Bildungsbörse”) for the international project students on the meeting in Dortmund in May 2015.

06.02.2015: Recruiting project members among the teachers
In this project meeting the teachers were recruited for the 24 months long project. These were: Susanne Auer, Jochen Steier, Julia Schweers, Philipp Lüttgens, Knut Hoecke and Britta Tschersich. A very motivated teacher trainee, Alexander Bochmann, was also included in the group. He already had filming experience with students at university and an overall knowledge about using mobile devices for film making in the classroom. The students, everybody agreed, should be from all different departments of the school. This meant students with a very basic education and from youth training schemes (BVB and KSOB , Foto: BVB: Do’s and Don’ts, film: “Do’s and Don’ts of Employability”) |
and students with a general education on their path to an access to a university of applied science (HTU and HTO) and students who aim at A-level and attending university after school (classes 11 and 12,)
The first plan to prepare a questionnaire about social media was decided upon. As a work platform google + plus was agreed upon because the Spanish (main coordinator) had suggested it. In class BVB the students also dealt with the subject matter of employability and decided to make video clips instead of a written CV. They decided to produced an interview instead of presenting themselves on their own in a monologue. On this stage of “film production” the students had not yet managed to consider the right sound and background for their films. Their teacher Susanne Auer and the students themselves had to realise that it is much harder to make a short clip than they had expected. Still, it was an interesting product, showing that it can be very fruitful to go a different way when applying for a job.

23/09/15 Coordinative Erasmus+ Information Conference, Essen, Vocational College - Presentation of ROE to interested teachers in the whole of North Rhine Westphalia.
At the beginning of this informational event for teachers at the Berufskolleg West in Essen Mrs Braidi welcomed the guests and informed them about the different types of EU projects (KA1 and KA2) and about contents and methods of previous projects which had been very successful. She also informed about the contracts and structures of these projects, target groups and advice for realisation and implementation. After her presentation all teachers allocated themselves to work groups in which one EU project representative presented his or her specific current project. Susanne Auer showed all aspects of “Recording Our Europe” as mentioned above. A very fruitful discussion about financing, realising and disseminating the project and its results followed which helped to reduce the fears and reservations of those teachers who had not carried out an EU-project before. Susanne Auer then took the opportunity to join other discussion and work groups in order to gain more knowledge herself concerning applications and subject matters for future contracts.

15.02.2016 – 20.02.2016: 4th Transnational Meeting in Dortmund
This Transnational Meeting took place in Dortmund because the Italian partner in Gubbio had left the project right at the beginning. The Dortmund hosts had created a complex schedule including work phases on filming and editing films as well as working on the Good Practise Guide (4 hours, 13:30 h – 18:00 h). The highlight of the meeting was the musical gig that all international students with their teachers presented in the school hall at lunch time. The principal of the school, Mr Heinz Mai congratulated the guests and the participating teachers of his school for the successful implementation of the project. The other about 30 teachers of the LHB in the audience applauded and showed more motivation in taking part in a next European project than they did the year before. If dissemination can be taken seriously, this “gig” obviously set a seed for more interest in Erasmus+ projects! See website of the school: |
26.03.2016 - 02.03.2016: A report for the official brochure of the district government (Bezirksregierung Arnsberg, Mr Mueller)
Susanne Auer, the project coordinator, wrote a two-page report for the district government to be published in its official brochure. The report starts by presenting one product of the project, a “horror movie” about the dangers of social networks. The making of and the YouTube link ( https://t.co/k0VLBC2ZjV ) were included in the report as well as the notice that a Good Practise Guide is being produced in which interested teachers can get a lot of advice for the use of film and video in school. The report also explains the other subject matters of the project (“sustainability” and “employability”) and reflects the complexity of this “venture”.
Mr Alex Mueller, head of the EU agency for the district government of Arnsberg confirms the reception of the report on the “Recording Our Europe” Erasmus+ project and promises to publish it! It will be presented in the next brochure at the beginning of the term 2016/2017.

03.03.2016: A report in the local newspaper
Susanne Auer’s report on the Second Transnational Meeting in Dortmund is published in the “Westfälische Rundschau”. Just as in the report for the district government, a rough draught of the project is presented and the chance to receive the Good Practise Guide is mentioned in the article. The German project teachers hope that a lot of teachers from other schools will order it so that the use of this fascinating and motivating medium “film” will spread among vocational and general schools.

11.03.2016: Presentation of this project in the conference of the department for A-level students
Susanne Auer showed a Power Point Presentation to all teachers of the department in order to publish the results and discuss the methods (filming and use of video) and the implementation of more projects into this department. The teachers agreed to the positive impact such a project work has on the students in all fields of their development but asked the project coordinator to remember that the amount of contents which have to be taught because of the centralised exams (Zentralabitur) restrict the time for projects. One idea to realise this project (orientated) approach was taken into consideration: The students should film the work placements they have to do at the end of class 11 and prepare a presentation of the job they experienced for the teachers and students of that form. In this way some of the objectives of project work could also be achieved in a simple way. All teachers attending the meeting agreed however, upon integrating a more project-orientated approach to teaching into their lessons and to try to apply filming as one method to gain and structure knowledge in all subject matters of this department.
