The Donaub\u00fcro Ulm\/Neu-Ulm in cooperation with scientific education and civil society institutions from five countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, Romania) implemented the \u201cMedia Project Old and Young\u201d (Danube-Networkers Lectures, DALEC) with the thematic focus \u201cValues and Paths along the Danube\u201d. The project\u2019s subject corresponded to that year\u2019s topic of the city of Ulm and the motto of the Danube Festival 2012: \u201cNew spirit along the Danube\u201d. The key tasks were assigned to the Centre for General Scientific Continuing Education of Ulm University (in short ZAWIW).
Five lectures on scientific subjects at four different locations (Ulm, Budapest, Belgrade, Craiova and finally again in Ulm) were being prepared by scientists for lay people, held live to an audience in the respective locations and transmitted over the Internet in an online-lecture series DALEC to the other project locations. The lectures were being discussed nationally and transnationally. The lectures were translated into the project partners\u2019 native languages. After the lecture, in-depth discussions took place in internet forums. The fifth event accompanied by an expert discussion took place in the framework of the International Danube Festival 2012 in Ulm.
The online-lecture series was aimed at older adults, students and pupils. A special feature of the project was the cooperation and discussion between old and young people. The understanding of values and individual topics was expected to be different not only between the participants from the Danube countries but also between the generations. The accompanying discussions were therefore contribute contribution to a better understanding between old and young. The active use of new media in the implementation of the project suppored a cross-generational learning process, whereby the older generation benefited from the younger ones.
The project was based on a pilot project called \u201cLearning network KOJALA in Ulm\u201d, and of course it benefited from the experienes made in KOJALA. In KOJALA, over several years, a number of internet-based old-young projects were initiated and scientifically supervised.
The lecture series was being presented on an internet platform in the form of video podcasts, and it was accompanied relevant materials. An internet forum provided the opportunity to elaborate on the subjects in intergenerational and cross-national discussions. In two locations (Ulm, Vienna), intergenerational study groups of students, pupils and seniors were being formed. The members met in person, took part in virtual learning projects and in small mini-projects
The calls for participation in the lectures and the accompanying learning project were being made public via the event announcements of the participating universities and partner organizations and their press distribution lists, also over Internet-communities and schools in the partners\u2019 locations.
The project was successful and generateed a follow up project which was named DALEC 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
