YOUTH VOICES MATTER – a cross-border 10-month project. Country participants are – Moldova and Ukraine. Duration is October 2022 – July 2023. The participants are teachers of English and their students (1st and/or 2nd year of study) from both Moldova and Ukraine. (Among them Pavlo Tychyna Uman State Pedagogical University (5 teachers and 10 students)). The project was focused on developing media literacy, digital skills, and communicative skills in English. Project Outcomes were to raise young people’s awareness that youth’s voices matter in bringing positive transformations in their communities. This outcome was reached by involving students, who were guided by their teachers, in a number of activities aiming to develop media literacy, and digital and communicative skills. Students had to create newsletters, and photo collages, learn to carry out interviews, design and deliver oral speeches, and create a digital yearbook.

The project activities were held monthly, both onsite and online. There were 2 trainings planned for 2 days and 1 training for three days, 5 hours of work per day. Trainings were held at weekends and were given by lecturers from Aleco Russo University (Moldova), identified experts in journalism and media literacy among USA ETAs and Fulbrights. The host university kept track of attendance and communicated with the beneficiaries who received certificates of attendance and participation following every training.

In November two-day training “Impact of Social Media on Youth Voices” (online for Ukraine and Transnistrian region) were held. In December the participants had a three-day Hybrid Training “Peers Teaching Peers and in February there was a two-day Hybrid Training “Establishing a Culture of Questioning”.

НАУКОВЕ СТАЖУВАННЯ У ВАРШАВСЬКОМУ УНІВЕРСИТЕТІ

The professional development course for English teachers “Teaching English in the New Context. Grades 7–9” was developed to support the New Ukrainian School reform and was successfully piloted by the British Council, Ukraine in March 2023.

The course covered four modules:

Module 1. Engaging with learning technologies – digital literacies.

This module introduces participants to the topic of digital literacy, issues and challenges of teaching learners who have grown up in the digital age.

Module 2. Planning and adapting materials.

This module looks at how to plan a remote lesson and some of the differences with face-to-face lessons.

Module 3. Managing remote learning.

This module looks at classroom management. It helps teachers to think about the skills they use when teaching face-to-face in a classroom and how they can transfer those skills to teaching remotely.

Module 4  Assessing  and motivating learning.

This module explores different assessment approaches and their impact on learning  as well as different skills teachers need when moving to online teaching.

Approximately 3000 participants have successfully completed their studies, and now put their knowledge into practice. Among them the representatives of Palvo Tychyna Uman State Pedagogical University: associate professors Alla Gembaruk, Olena Bevz, Tetiana Kapeliushna, Anhelina Kolisnichenko and students: Liliya Babych, Olena Kravets, Anastasia Leshchenko and Yulia Musienko.
