On October 12th, 2011 the closing event took place on the Domberg in Freising. At this event the entire consortium, as well as representatives from the German Federation of Landscape Architects (BDLA) and The Bavarian Architects Association (BayAK) took part. On this occasion the team would like to very much thank all guests and friends for their helpful comments and efforts!

All together a group of 17 persons, representing six European countries and 8 different institutions or associations discussed the results of EU-teach and elaborated the next steps on how to continue with the application on a second phase.


Draft paper for a European teaching cluster sumitted to EU - August 2011

The analysis of the "List of Relevant European Teaching Contents", developed through the "EU-teach" project, suggests that forming one or several `European Teaching Cluster´ would be advantageous. Both stakeholders, schools and students would profit from making such clusters available. Schools would be able to share existing resources and collaborate on teaching European contents across borders and institutions. Students and staff would profit as teaching clusters would contribute to enhancing flexibility throughout the European labour market.

Analysis of an evaluation of the "List of Relevant European Teaching Contents" by participating universities and EFLA- July 2011

ECLAS Summer School - May 2011

On the 27th of May we could present the project at the LE:NOTRE Summer School for Landscape Academics in Dessau, 26th -29th May 2011. The Project manager Prof. Dr. Markus Reinke led a workshop with participants from all over Europe, about our project. The workshop brought first ideas about the building up of a possible teaching cluster and the participants could be partners in there. They were very interested and very active during the discussion.

List of Relevant European Teaching Contents - April 2011

Essentially the structure of the list is oriented towards the "Tuning Document of Le:Notre (ECLAS - LE:NOTRE: Tuning Landscape Architecture Education in Europe, draft 27, 2010:7), because the different fields of landscape architects are already clearly defined there. The project EU-Teach develops this Tuning Document with a special focus on relevant European teaching contents. After the collection of all project partners the members of EFLA and ECLAS gave us an overwhelming feedback. The numerous additions were incorporated and examined several times by the project partners. In the midterm event all participants agreed on structure and contents and you can find the complete document on the download area on this website.
