• SC and their responsibility/duty as “time witnesses” and ”living historic documents”
• How can SC participate more actively in AEC (e.g. “club of the wise”, networking on transnational level, cooperation with schools, access/empowerment to volunteer work etc.)
• How can AEC help SC to care for own interests/issues (e.g. best practise exchange how to optimise life situation/social status for SC)• Meet other SC and learn from each other

• Small learner groups (max. 8-10 persons?)
• High level of blended learning
• High level of interactive/group learning
• Make sure pedagogic staff is experienced/trained in working with senior learners
www.auxilium.co.at
Main results: Training Course key factors
• High level of learning by doing!
• Do not underestimate know how, competences and knowledge of many senior learners!
• Respect KISS – Keep it small and simple!
• Reduce theory - increase practical approaches
• Low speed and high level of redundancies during lessons (because this is a very complex topic many learners are not familiar with at all)
• Link learning issues with real life of learners
• Respect the learners and their abilities!

Workshop issues:
1) Main areas and key factors/standards for AESAEC pedagogic concept (such as structure, duration, organisation, educational level of learners etc.?)
2) What are your suggestions for content/structure of the “given” modules?3) What are your suggestions for topic/content/structure etc. of the “missing” modules? (consider approx. 3 or 4 modules)4) How do you think “authentic location learning”, “multi sensorial learning” and “learning by doing” can be implemented in our course?
