Description of the tool
This manual introduces you to the Narrative Based Learning Method and how it can be utilized digitally as a creative, educational tool for youth workers and young learners. Before delving into the theoretical content, it is important to understand and identify how the Narrative Based Learning Method will be used within the context of the Erasmus+ KA2 project YOUCREATE in the frames of which it's been created.
YOUCREATE aims to empower youth workers and young people from diverse cultural and national backgrounds by utilizing their creativity to participate in our society actively. By applying the Narrative Based Learning Method, youth workers and young people will be equipped with a creative learning tool to engage and teach them about EU project development and management. As a result, young people will be given a tool to help transition them into a working environment while simultaneously raising awareness on the concept of a circular economy and sustainability.
The manual is divided into five chapters which gives youth workers and trainers the skills to apply this methodology in their programs:
Chapter I presents a theoretical understanding of the Narrative Based Learning Method and its key elements and structural components. It provides case studies and outlines the benefits of this method for youth workers and young learners.
● Chapter II outlines different learning modalities and non-formal and informal learning approaches. It includes a detailed account of the benefits of the blended learning method. Lastly, there are three examples of youth projects that implement non-formal learning approaches.
● Chapter III defines communicative training approaches and presents samples of narrative-based learning techniques used in youth projects specifically focused on sustainability and the environment.
● Chapter IV focuses on how to digitize narrative-based training. You’ll be presented with good practices on how to transfer learning and European project development to a virtual environment.
● Chapter V gives you tips and how-tos on applying the narrative-based learning method in a hybrid program with a focus on youth programs.
