Intensive programmes for higher education learners, Constanta Maritime University students visiting University of Aegean
4-8 April 2022
Within the Erasmus+ Strategic partnership project ISolMet, Constanta Maritime University facilitated the participation of five students in an intensive programme dedicated to soft skills improvement.
The main goal of the Intensive program was to implement the developed Maritime courses for soft skills. Participants tested and analysed alternative teaching methods and styles in order to conclude to the most efficient ones per case. Our students assessed through pre-defined questionnaires the quality and effectiveness of the courses thus having a first evaluation of the material from the actual users. At the same time each student performed a pre and post evaluation of their personal skills and competences, in order to “measure” how specific courses have helped students to better perceive the nature of their future occupation and further if they feel to have improve some of their skills (which and in what degree).
“The experience we had in Chios is a great example of how great but also how interactive case studies can be.”, Iarina Maria SPINU
“The amount of useful information which was gathered in that week cannot be compared to anything I have taken part in. Even today, I am still using what we’ve been so amazingly taught!”, Gabriel Andrei DOROFTEI

29-31 March 2022
Using case studies and simulations in teaching is highly engaging and motivating. The case method bridges theory to practice, and promotes the development of skills including: communication, active listening, critical thinking and decision-making skills. In addition, by using the case study method, the participants apply theoretical knowledge, analyze and reflect on various approaches to make sense of a case. Two participants from Constanta Maritime University: Assoc Prof Dr Anca Sirbu and Liminita Stan took part in the short term teaching event kindly hosted by Naval Academy from Varna and piloted different types of teaching methods for using cases in classroom. Within an Erasmus+ consortium, they tested problem-based learning, discussion, debate, intimate debate, public hearing, trial, jigsaw, and role-play methods. Among the high quality achievements: The art of formulating Opening questions, Anchor questions as well as specific questions for Description, Analysis and Prescription.
