of our society. This project follows to analyze the impact of media in learning process. The partners will exchange knowledge and
experience regarding the new challenges that learners have to face (more and various information, new technologies to deal with,

methodological and technical strategies. Socrates programmes, (Grundtvig in this case) improves adult education in the broader sense,
foster improvement of the education possibilities available to a various categories of people without basic school qualifications, and
encourages innovation in alternative educational pathways. Information becomes a vital fact for humanity. The most efficient way to
propagate information in our society is represented by media and the new technologies involved. Today’s reality demands different
needs and meanings of education. One of the main roles of the education providers is to improve various modalities of making
education happened in one adapted and efficient way. Methods from educational area are needed to be changed and fit them to the
new labour market specificities. As a final product, a “guide of good practice” will be developed. This guide will describe new
challenges of today’s knowledge society and modality’s to deal with it, so that learning becomes a life long process. Because of the
various profile of participant institutions it is assured a wide field of experience, assuring not only knowledge and experience change
between participant countries, but a high intercultural communication; a sustainable development in field of in field of new
pedagogical and methodological approaches (providing knowledge, skills and competences acquired outside formal education); a
