We are very happy to announce that our Lifelong Learning Comenius project “SPACIT” has been identified as one of 30 good practice projects within the E.N.T.E.R network. On behalf of the European Commission, E.N.T.E.R. screened projects and results from different European funding programmes to identify 30 good practice projects in the field of later learning.
SPACIT addresses the lack of a systematic education development to make a critical and reflexive use of spatial data/information. The project introduces a competence model and curriculum for secondary education, and provides an interdisciplinary approach connecting social sciences, civics education, geoinformatics, didactics and teacher training.
The recognition as good practice project has earned the SPACIT Consortium an invitation to take part in several activities of the YOURopa project during 2013 (www.youropa-project.eu). The main aim of YOUropa is to organise a European Conference around best practices in the field of Active European Citizenship which contributes to the European Year of Citizens 2013.
