Learning in, with, and through culture
Short description
Three school classes, three cultural institutions, EDUCULT and partners from research and practice will deal with cultural competence as a cross-subject aesthetic field in school.
With its interdisciplinary and multi-perspective project team, the project is supposed to generate cutting-edge results. Besides pupils and teachers from three schools in Vienna, Lower Austria and Carinthia, a theatre, an opera house and a contemporary arts museum are part of the team. EDUCULT as the main research coordinator is supported by Dr. Isolde Malmberg (mdw – Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst) and other partners from research, school development and teacher training to ensure the dissemination of the project findings.
Method

- Cultural laboratories & research on cultural competences – active learning in arts and culture, individual projects and reflection
