Methodology

The Course will introduce the participants to two topics: active ageing, what needs to be done and learned in order to age actively, and production of short featured films. Both topics and related activities can be successfully integrated in older adult or/and intergenerational education. Writing scripts and producing short featured films are highly appreciated not only by adult educators but also by older learners and adult education providers.

Activities will include presentation of the educational material, sessions on topics such as active ageing and andragogy, screening and debating a variety of short and feature films as well as a cinema atelier for the production of new short films, which will be organized in collaboration with elder local participants.

There will be study visits to places of interest, such as media museum or film studios.
