1. A description of the activities undertaken during the unit, including comments on the reactions of the group/individual participants

a. Introduction to the upcoming project Cultural vehicles in education - reasons for its starting , future possibilities of the project
b. Discussion - finding out the needs of the group and its individuals. We would like to realise the project in such a way that the participants will not only learn something but also entertain themselves. For this reason we organised this meeting , where all the invited have opportunity to present their own ideas about the project realisation and have time to decide whether thez would like to participate on the project.
The attendees came with many interesting suggestions on the skills they would like to develop and practice - drama art, photography, painting, and overall and political knowledge.
During the discussion participants showed their ability to Express their own opinion in front of the group of people. Also, we were able to detect the level of their ability to listen to others and respect opinion of other people.
c. Scheduling the meeting with the artist instructor
Next meeting will be already attended bz the professional from the art field and everybody willl have opportunity to talk with him, ask questions and trz out whether hew would like to participate on the workshops.

2. Was the aim of the unit achieved (the implementation of practical skills and the pedagogical aim)?

Most of the invited individuals seemed enthusiastic about the upcoming meeting with the artist. However we do not want to make conclusions or fill out the forms with the participants at this point. All the people we work with are very sensitive, therefore we need to progress very carefully and fill out the forms at the time when all the participants will be sure they like the workshops and would like to be part o fit.

3. Other remarks (for example on the group and the interaction between artistic and educational elements)

Due to the social exclusion of our clients we need to proceed with the project very carefully at the beginning so that the clients do not lose thein interest , or do not feel that the zone of their comfort is infringed.
