2 coordinator: Staatliches Seminar für Didaktik und Lehrerbildung (Gymnasien und Sonderschulen) Freiburg (DE) partner: Intytut Historii Wydział Nauk Społecznych, Uniwersytet Śląski Katowice (PL) Empirical research related to the referendum about Common Constitution has revealed that young people in Europe have not been informed enough of the Community and its Constitution. In order to stimulate pupils to be interested in debating European problems we have to develop a suitable didactic design and innovative teaching materials. Debating about Common Constitution produces an effective background to reflect on European identity and common policy because of the complex and fundamental questions. According to Bologna Process teacher education is changing. This process will become more tranparent by transnational cooperation and exchange between institutions of teacher training and instructing, between schools, universities, based on variety of opinion and transfer of experience. Establishing the platform to perform this process is the very aim of project. It would be achieved best in the type of activity provided by Comenius network. Teaching material should be adapted to the didactic requirement of content language integrated learning in English and German according to the principles of CLIL. The entire network will be involved in performingthis process through close cooperation.
