Bearing. Alternative Education Workshop

Bearing. Alternative Education Workshop

We’ve been working for five months with 16 high school students in Barlad in order to identify and study subjects of local interest. It was a rewarding experience, at the end of which the attendees learned how to use research methods and techniques in order to understand the things that happen in the community they are a part of.

When the project was completed, during the week of extra-curricular activities (1st – 5th of april 2013) Vira presented the Bearing Project – Alternative Education Workshop. We have featured the films in the project and talked about them. The activities were attended by 250 students and it was a good opportunity to share the experiences we learned during the workshop, and develop new ways, with the input of the students, to get involved in the day to day life of the community.

Participants: Andreea Crăciun („Alexandru Ioan Cuza” Technical High School), Ştefan Mihoci („Mihai Eminescu” Theoretical High School), Florina Vasilache („Gheorghe Roșca Codreanu” National High School), Alexandra Diaconu („Alexandru Ioan Cuza” Technical High School), Ariadna Roman („Gheorghe Roșca Codreanu” National High School), Ecaterina Comănescu („Gheorghe Roșca Codreanu” National High School), Elena Borcea („Gheorghe Roșca Codreanu” National High School), Dragos Musteaţă („Alexandru Vlahuţă” Teachers’ High School), Lucian Ibanescu („Gheorghe Roșca Codreanu” National High School), Răzvan Ifrim („Mihai Eminescu” Theoretical High School), Andreea Sălăvastru („Mihai Eminescu” Theoretical High School), Vlad Poenescu („Gheorghe Roșca Codreanu” National High School)
