Do book clubs intimidate you? Have you ever felt guilty about not having read the book? No need to be! Then this is the right place for you. 

Book Club EU is a book club that welcomes everyone. You don't need to have read the book to join! In this conversation, we will delve into the importance of education, discussing our experiences with educational spaces and institutions, our own teaching methods as educators, and the transformative power of education.

Register and join us on 8 October 2024, from 10 to 12 CEST, to experience this revolutionising methodology!

To facilitate this conversation, we will be using different books as sources for conversation starters, sharing them with the EPALE community and creating discussion groups to discuss and share our opinions on selected quotes.

Register for the workshop!

  • The Girl With The Louding Voice by Abi Daré 
  • Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
  • Stay With Me by Ayobami Adebayo 

No pressure, just enjoy it. You do not need to read any of the books to take part!

Marvin Agire is a 19-year-old multi-hyphenate creative based in Norway.

This summer he graduated high school in Norway. He is passionate about cinematography, videography and film. He is actively working on personal projects to further enhance his skills in these fields.

Nav vairs vajadzības lasīt grāmatas. Gūsim zināšanas, parunājot klubiņā, paklausoties, ko par grāmatām stāsta citi. Vai tiešām? Profesore Žogla teica, ka pedagoga meistarība - tā ir viņa profesionālā pārliecība. Un pārliecībai ir jābūt savai, vērojot un analizējot gūtai. Arī grāmatas lasot un ar savu pieredzi salīdzinot. Cik vērta ir no citu pārstāstiem un uzskatiem izveidojusies pārliecība?   Vai, ļaujoties patīkamajai komunikatīvajai pieejai, nezaudējam vajadzību pēc patstāvīgas izpratnes un viedokļa?

EPALE kopienas grāmatu klubs ir platforma, kas veidota, lai izglītības speciālisti un pieaugušo izglītības interesenti varētu kopīgi dalīties pieredzē, idejās un iedvesmoties no tās piedāvātās literatūras. Grāmatu klubs jo īpaši izceļ izglītības lomu personīgajā un profesionālajā attīstībā. Tā ir ne tikai vieta, kur dalīties ar grāmatu apskatiem, bet arī vide, kurā tiek veicināta diskusija par izglītības pārveidojošo spēku. Piedāvātie literatūras avoti bieži sniedz jaunus skata punktus un rosina dziļākas pārdomas par mācīšanās nozīmi, motivējot dalībniekus attīstīt kritisko domāšanu un izmantot jaunas pieejas savā darbā.

 Grāmatu klubā tiek izcelti darbi, kas saistīti ar mūžizglītību, pieaugušo izglītību, sociālajiem jautājumiem un mācīšanās procesiem. Tas veicina dialogu starp dažādām kopienām un uzlabo sadarbību starp pedagogiem. Šāda veida iniciatīvas stiprina pieaugušo izglītības nozīmi un palīdz dalībniekiem pārveidot savu pieeju izglītībai, nodrošinot, ka viņi var sniegt nozīmīgu ieguldījumu savās kopienās un profesionālajā dzīvē.

 EPALE grāmatu klubs ir neatsverams resurss, kas veicina attīstību un izglītošanos.
