The Free University of Bozen-Bolzano’s Faculty of Education hosted a training day on February 2, 2024, bringing together kindergarten and primary school teachers from the Trentino-South Tyrol region. The event focused on the use of picture books and storytelling in early language education to foster intercultural understanding.
Dr. Sandie Mourão from Nova University in Lisbon delivered the keynote address, sharing insights on using picture books for intercultural education and demonstrating reading-aloud techniques with local schoolchildren. The day also featured workshops led by Unibz professors, exploring intercultural education with Ladin, Italian, and German picture books.
Held at the Brixen-Bressanone campus, the event empowered teachers with innovative methods to engage young learners in linguistically and culturally rich environments.
