Volunteer in a non-formal school in the Black Forest
Verein Selbstbestimmtes Lernen e.V.
St Georgen, Alemanha
Descrição
About 30 children - age 6 to 18 - attend the Freie schule Brigach. This school has an alternative educational offer: the students learn in groups of mixed ages and decide everyday by themselves what to learn and how. The concept meets at the same time the requirements of curriculums at state schools. Children experience democracy, while the teachers’ role is to give input and advices, support children on their own way of learning. Children are taught to work independently and self-responsible: teachers are not an authority who know everything, but someone who supports children in their process of learning. THis is a self-determined learning process. Volunteer activities: assistance during classes, supporting pupils at excursions, initiate personal projects.

Formação durante a atividade
In the beginning there will be trainings to welcome the volunteer and to clarify rights and responsibilities. There is continuous professional support for the volunteers, such as regular reflection talks: a neutral person from outside of the core group will lead these talks. To learn the language of the hosting country there is a weekly language training at the local adult education center. The volunteer will take part in two trainings of the National Agency in Germany and attend the On-Arrival-Seminar and the Midterm-Training.
