Key competences as a goal, empowerment as a learning approach
Competence based learning shifts the focus of education and learning on the indidvidual needs and the applicability of the learned. It defines learning outcomes wider than knowledge. It includes as further equal aspects the practical skills of learners and their competences to act in complex social situations. Our idea of facilitation focuses on two main aspects. As a fundamental goal of education and learning we shape and strengthen key competences. The fundamental didactical approach we promote is the idea of empowerment - helping each individual to act self-responsible, purpose- and powerful.
Theoretical aspects of learning and groups
Following the idea of competence based learning and empowerment we need to reflect the learning conditions, our idea of education, and the role of the trainer or teacher. And since social life is shaped through group and intergroup collaboration, we need to reflect the specifics of social groups as collective spaces for involvement and as learning spaces.
