Day 1
The host of the last meeting of the WB-TAC project was CRESOL. The first day the meeting started with the introdcution of learning by doing activities and how this can promote effective empowerment. We have discussed on how the learning by doing activities should be free of restriction to achieve the best result possible. Each participant was given a sheet on which they would write any other objective. At the end the objectives were discussed resulting in the objectives being different from one another because related to the creativity of the person. After the general introduction and discussion the group moved to the first learning by doing activity: making Paella, the traditional Valencia dish. After a preparatory activity in which was explained the long history of this dish and the relation with culture and history of Valencia the group was shown how to make the Paella. The participants were divided into groups; each group prepared the ingredients and at the end cooked together and ate the final dish.
In the afternoon after a brief pause the participants took part in the second activity connected with learning by doing: the ceramics workshop. The ceramic workshop took into consideration a unique technique called "Raku". Raku is synonymous of unpredictability, it is beyond logic and the calculations of common sense, it is nature in its most humble state. The participants were divided into two groups and both did two activities. the first activity was to produce a terracotta sphere and the second activity was to colour a bowl using the techniques of ceramists.
The day ended with an account of the activities carried out.
Day 2
The second day of the meeting started with the reflection of the last activity from the previous day. The final part of the meeting apart from evaluation and issuing of certificates of attendance were dedicated to the the final considerations regarding the project. The participants have been split into three groups, reflecting on the positive and negative aspects, what has been learnt and what can be improved. The conclusion formulated by all groups was: "learning by doing is based on a memorable experience including participation, creativity, organization, trust and know-how”. All partners in this project recognized the importance of “learning by doing” methods to improve training techniques in different areas, in particular in the field of culture and art. After this group confrontation, the project promoter Ms Giuseppina Bomba thanked all the project partners for the work carried out in all the previous months, expressing the desire to collaborate with them in other projects.
