Welcome

The project NEWS – New Education with success aims to combine critical thinking and innovative methods of education in a methodological approach and make them available online to experienced as well as new adult educators in a directly usable form. Besides a general methodological part, there will be concrete modules for ICT, language learning and media education.

NEWS is funded by the Erasmus+ Programme as a Strategic Partnership under KA2. Partners are adult education organizations from six European countries.

The final countdown
The last project meeting took place in Lithuania, at Bite AEC. We summarised the results achieved, prepared further dissemination activities and the final report and had a great time with our wonderful team. We end a three-year project with many feelings and thoughts: how much we have learned together and how sad it is that this is our last meeting.
