Lazkao, Gipuzkoa.  Sixteen participants from the Basque Diaspora will be at the Maizpide Barnetegi this month in Lazkao, to participate in the Gaztemundu training program sponsored by the Basque Government.  They are Basque teachers at their respective Basque clubs and during this time will complete an intensive Basque course that will deepen their knowledge on how to teach the Basque language. 

This year’s Gaztemundu is organized a little differently and consists of two parts.  The first, from this morning until September 14, will focus on methodology. Participates will address themes such as creating lesson plans, internet resources, using social networks and the Moodle platform for distance teaching.  The second part is comprised of an intensive Basque course at the Barnetegi itself from the 17-27 of this month. 

The first part of the workshop will be taught by Kinku Zinkunegi (HABE technician and coordinator of the Euskara Munduan program), Jon Urdangarin (professor at Maizpide), Mikel Dorronsoro (who will teach how to use Moodle), Esther Isasi (social networks), and Dani Oiarbide (distance teaching).
