FIRST ''GLOBAL ETHIC AT SCHOOL'' SEMINAR HELD IN MOSTAR

Totality of ethical behaviour or shortly ethos was the theme that dominated during the last weekend in Student hotel in Mostar. Namely, the ''Global Ethic at School'' seminar was held in the organization of TPO Foundation from Sarajevo where directors, pedagogues, teachers of catechism, philosophy, history, geography, physical education and sports and vocational construction subjects could hear what global ethic offers under its aegis to B&H educational system. The teachers could see the potential, importance and usability of global ethic under the school roof in order to build themselves and their students to become more open people without prejudices and stereotypes.
When it comes to the pedagogical aspect of this very project the demonstrations of two sets of classes were realized with teachers and the themes were related to the ethical challenges of today.

The online platform etos.ba exchange their ideas, proposals and critics in order to find ways for better and more ethical world in which we live. Numerous publications are available on the site which can be very helpful in their work on this theme.
The impressions of teachers were positive and they can be best seen in a statement of a teacher: ''It is very good to remind ourselves of important immaterial things in life such as coexistence, ethics, connection and living together.''
Gymnasium Mostar also reported on the seminar http://gimnazijamostar.ba/1671-2/. All teachers were given certificates and numerous didactic materials which make quality foundation for future story telling into better and more open tomorrow.
