This course is an innovation because it is the fusion of different learning paths we have crossed to make a unique training program more practical than theoretical.
It combines the fundamentals of Media Education/MIL and Video Making which are useful tools for students engagement, inclusion and to fight bullying at school.
Media Education is already familiar to teachers. Now it is more trendy to say MIL (Media and Information Literacy) to help teachers and students to become more media literate and aware of information, fake news, and dangerous risks from the net.
Young people are bombarded with information more than ever, and it can be difficult to distinguish the real from the fake or the important from the trivial. In the last ten years, news media has changed dramatically from traditional print to digital media– and social media has changed the world. As students become more connected, they need to be informed, more aware, and able to face what awaits them in the near future with the information sector.
Video Making or digital Storytelling is trendy now, thanks to many new professions born in the digital era connected with social media, marketing, and digital content production. According to the actual digital transformation happening, it’s recognized that videos are a very powerful tool to teach, educate and involve. Nowadays, kids and youngsters have to be considered a kind of addicted to videos and YouTubers fans. The risk of becoming clinically addicted is true but, at the same time, young generations have to become more aware of how a video can be created, for professional and educational purposes. Included, many teachers have become YouTubers, bloggers, and video makers with public channels of social pages where they become famous and they share what they can create to teach and change methods and perspectives in education.
Storytelling has always been a significant part of history, but the means through which the stories have been told have evolved with each civilization. From the oral histories presented by bards in ancient courts, to the works of scribes during the Renaissance, to newspapers, CNN, and now the Internet, a personal narrative has been used to communicate the events of the past. Digital storytelling now combines tradition with technology and allows students to tell stories through voice, text, images, audio, and video.
Digital stories allow students to take a linear series of events and turn them into a multidimensional experience. It encourages them to communicate, collaborate, and research as well as to infuse media into the process. A plethora of tools and apps exist to create these projects, and all of them enable students to gain a deeper understanding of history as they explore the most effective way to retell it.
Digital storytelling for all is a training designed for all who want to deepen their knowledge about audiovisual content creation.
Storytelling is a meaningful tool that can be used in the classroom to engage student learning as well as to enhance the expression of views, and stimulate creativity, critical thinking, and reflections on social issues.
Storytelling is an experience created with the main aim to offer a practical approach to learning how to create an audiovisual product in its 3 main phases: pre-production, production, and post-production.
“Video art is a contemporary art form that deals with everyday issues, problems, dilemmas, and wishes, and focuses mainly on human existence and experience. Video as a medium in artists´ hands has the ability to connect identity, experiences, and knowledge through the arrangement and management of images, text, and sound into a work of art. As a technology tool it has the capacity to capture learners´ interest and connect school life with the everyday world since video is already a significant part of their life in many forms (e.g. through television, internet, video games, and mobile phones)”.
The program structure will cross the different areas of video production and video concept focused on teachers’ and educators’ jobs related to the work in the classroom.
The increasing use of social media and media tools in school and the growing bullying phenomena start with very young students. Media has a huge impact on our lives and school is a long-term stage of life where teachers have roles as educators, but also as mentors and people who connect to the outside world themselves. Teachers stand in the middle between principals and parents and represent a point of reference for students who grow up in classrooms and need to become young adults and adults, European citizens ready to become freelancers, entrepreneurs, or employees.
Approximately 32 percent of students report being bullied at school, research shows that schools where students report a more severe bullying climate perform worse on standardized assessments than schools with a better climate.
LEARNING GOALS:
Participants can be any teacher at any level of education working in a public or private school or educational institution.
INTRO/METHOD
Like all our programs, the present one is flexible and adaptable to special requests, depending on the subject taught or on the starting level of the participant.
Furthermore, in line with the JUMP Academy method, our courses are based on a strategic balance between formal and non-formal education, indoor and outdoor education and the team takes care of a very important aspect of international mobility which is the intercultural learning which we develop with short excursions and facilitating the interaction with local partners, businesses and citizens of our territory. Each local context has its own economy so it’s always useful, in training programs, to get in contact with concrete examples (experiential learning and real based learning).
We always try to connect our learners to local teachers and students to cooperate in developing innovation and networking for future projects. If possible, inside the program, a morning is spent inside a local school, visiting, observing, and cooperating in the realization of one or more lessons. The proposed program JUMP works, in European dimension and with an international spirit, at the local level and, according to the period of the training along the year and the weather, it is possible to change some sessions and add visits and meetings, in cooperation with our network of partners including schools involved in European projects).

JUMP is based in Soverato (Catanzaro province), on the Jonian coast but the association cooperates with local partners and institutions of the surroundings towns and cities. Calabria region represents the deep South of Italy, known for the tropical climate and sandy beaches but also famous tall and green mountains.
During our trainings we also aim to make participants discovering the region, especially those old towns rich of culture, traditions, castles, small churches, narrow streets, colourful balconies, tropical flowers and local farms.
The nearest airport to Soverato is Lamezia Terme (SUF), 30 minutes far away from Soverato.
Our pick up is organized ONLY from and to this airport which is the biggest and the most important, connected to all the other cities in Italy and in Europe.
Many people like to stop in Rome or in Naples and take a train which is also comfortable and the journey along the coast is also pleasant (you see all the South).
JUMP proposes to participants to be lodged by Villa Gabriella International B&B managed by our local partner C.T.E. CENTRO TERRITORIALE EUROPEO company (https://closertoeurope.com/). The Villa has 7 big and comfortable rooms continuously renovated but also preserving the typical “old times” atmosphere of a very local house of Southern beach place. The Villa has many spaces for activities, a training room, the breakfast room, the terrace and flowers all around. It’s located in a peaceful and safe district called “Cittadella” surrounded by hills of olive trees and other Villas. JUMP created a network of other similar b&b for when participants are more than 12, in order to assure the same quality with an amazing breakfast, all comforts and an international environment. Villa Gabriella is also the JUMP headquarters for the general management of our activity. The Villa is the meeting point for all guests during all trainings and it’s where we realize all project activities.
Thanks to the cooperation with the C.T.E. company Jump provides lodging in 2 villas and if the groups are big, we have cooperation with all the owners of b&b and bigger hotels.
A brand new local partner, an innovative company offering touristic services with another vision and perspective. Discover Calabria and enjoy the local culture making experiential learning and practical labs with local people, but also simply a more sustainable tourism at local level.
The transfer from and to the airport is provided by C.T.E
