Project Delta

This Mobility Learning Environment (LE) and the method learning by doing was successfully used during IdA-Projects in Småland.

The origin of this way of working "learning by doing" is partly in the swedish culture ("you can not give an intern a boring job, then s/he will lose interest - s/he has to be able to do the fun parts") and partly in the nature of the super- visors themselves. The supervisors for Greta G. are very social, friendly, including in their approach at the same time as they are sensitive to what the participants want to do, what they like and what they are good at. Firstly the participants receive a hands on introduction and training on the job, what does the participand need to learn in order to execute a specific task. The task is first trained and trained again until the result is good, the eye has been educated and sensibilised for the job. Then the agreed upon job is done by the participant. Like photoshoping model shootings, creating a flyer, learning to use a camera, cutting, editing, creating an intro, handling a camera, handling a film camera, filming live events etc. The clue was that the participants were integrated into the Greta G. Model Contest project - a real project where aspiring models were casted together with one of Scandinavias leading model agency from Stockholm (MIKAS), top model Mona Johannesson (the swedish Kate Moss), The Swedish Fashion Council and companies and en- trepreneurs from Småland. The project set up was the planning, organisation and execution around
