After a very concentrated and active meeting in Bolu, in January 2009, over 60 History Educators from across Turkey, representing Teacher Training Institutes, as well as schools – primary and secondary – will meet in Kizilcahamam, Turkey, between 12-14th March. The Project A Key to Europe, Innovative Methodology in Turkish School History, so far has been very productive, and in this workshop, the project participants will be taking another step forward in the developmental process of creating innovative educational material, express their opinions and ideas, so that the work can be continued in a positive and common direction, with regards to the key questions, activities and sources.The workshop will specifically aim to continue to raise awareness about moving from theory to practice, inform about the second year of the project and continue the ongoing capacity-building of the Association of Turkish History Educators.EUROCLIO executive-director Joke van der Leeuw-Roord will host presentations on 'where we are' in the project. In addition, there will be a focus upon ICT in history education through the international workshops from Project Manager Jonathan Even-Zohar (EUROCLIO), Doug Belshaw (Director of e-learning, Church of England Academy, Northumbria, UK) and Nick Dennis (Assistant Head, Felsted School, Essex, UK). The project management will use this event as an opportunity and assess and analyse the ongoing development of the project to meet the aims and objectives as originally set out. Whilst in Ankara, the project management team will liaise with the Royal embassy of The Netherlands in Turkey to keep the representation updated on the project.
