2020-2023
Project title: Pedagogy of Imaginative Dialogues (PIMDI)
Project Manager: Hanze University of Applied Sciences Groningen
Strength: €334.391 for 36 months
The idea has its roots in the fact that, along with increased democratization in Europe, extremist movements have grown up with xenophobia and ideas of a return to oppressive dictatorship and guardianship in morality. In the project, work will be done to develop methods for studying art that are based on dialogue and the connection of different opinions. Master's students in art education together with teachers from the universities will travel between the countries and work with different partners in each place individually and these methods will be practiced and developed. Partners in Iceland are the Polytechnic School in Breiðholt, Borgarbókasafn and Gerðuberg. The outcome of the project will be in the form of academic subjects and teaching materials as well as new courses in teacher education.
