Profile In this magazine we have described ideas and profile subject travels. The descriptions are based on below mentioned mission.

Values of the school are aimed at preparing learners to manage themselves in a complex and ever-changing world. This is one of the reasons why every profile subject must be shaped in unity between learners and teachers - based on the theme for the trimester in question. It is our experience that the complexity and dynamicy of life is better experienced in a strong community and by being open towards others and the outside world.

We are a school of the times, and activities stimulating a sense of community have to be meaningful to learners and teachers alike.

The profile subjects bring together different learners and teachers in a unique development process. It is our experience that the guiding relationship established between learners and teachers during travels is the ultimate learning environment.

We focus on individual development with respect for the community.

Learners and teachers are very diverse and there will be many different priorities and targets during the year under the heading ‘development and education in the committing community’. It is for this reason that we focus on creating a framework that will support these many different interests - and in extension the many new and exciting profile subjects and travels. This strategy also means that self-payment on profile subject travels may vary accordingly.

PROFILE SUBJECTS AT RANUM EFTERSKOLE COLLEGE - IN SHORT: 1st trimester’s profile subjects are chosen prior to school start.

Subject groups meet for the first time at the day for new learners in May. During the first period you will practice a set of skills which are to be used during your profile travel. The first period will also prepare you for the selection process before 2nd and 3rd trimesters - Teachers have planned a course that will introduce you to the concept of having a profile, how it is developed and how you are influential.

2nd trimester’s culture subject are chosen in the end of September. Learners and teachers have the opportunity of shaping new profile subjects. The theme for this period is world citizenship and globalisation, and it is through this focus that we will meet other cultures around the world. These profile subjects are called culture subjects and we will prepare an expedition in extension of these subjects, which are to be carried through in Jan/FeB 3rd trimester’s profile subjects are chosen in December.

Learners and teachers can once again shape new subjects, and learners are at this stage very active and participatory. The goal is to use experiences from the 1st and 2nd trimesters’ profile subjects and combine interests, activities and cultural meetings. The theme is personal formation, and this process is often activated when our learners meet other cultures on their own terms and use the experiences gained from the first two profile subjects. Travels in 3rd trimester are in beginning of April, before written exams.

PERIODE 1

How to 1. Profile subjects are chosen via a link we will send you by mail 2. Choose your Profile subject. A few days after you will be able to see your subject.

3. The self-payment for the first profile subject will be collected together with the 1. rate of the schoolmoney in July.

Self-payment: The self-payment may vary depending on profile subject.

Please see information under each profile subject description.Selfpayment is collected with the 1st rate in July - deadline for booking flight tickets et cetera. If you change your mind or if you leave the school before our travels, you will not be reimbursed for the expenses.

The different levels of self-payment on our profile subjects are a reflection of the school’s values. We focus on forming unique communities of interest and create a space for the development of the individual in these communities based on their personal interests, dreams and goals. It is a unique foundation for development.

Applying for individual supplementary subsidy: The school is in the position to support learners with a subsidy to the self-payment.

Subsidies may be given to learners who have not been on a longer travel before. Learner and family will pay according to ability and it is a criteria that the learner in question has not received any subsidies before nor that the learner’s expenses are covered by any third parties.

PERIODE 1

choose: Important: Safety Diving & Speargun fishing Diving and speargun fishing is an exiting, challenging and developing subject, but because it is also connected to certain risks, there are some safety measures and administrative pre-cautions we need in place before any learner can participate in the profile subject Diving. This is important! Administrative papers are to be found on: www.ranumefterskole.dk/62-profilfag/581-inden-kursus-start-dykning • Helbredserklæring (health certificate).

• Bilag til helbredserklæring (appendix to the health certificate).

• Padi’ s regler for sikker dykning (rules and regulations for safe diving

by PADI).

• Risiko - og ansvarserklæring (statement of risk- and responsibility).

These administrative papers should all be filled in and signed by parents, the learner in question and perhaps your doctor (See appendix to health certificate). It is very important that the learner is able to answer ‘no’ to each question or statement on the health certificate, as a simple ‘yes’ to just one will result in additional examinations at a diver’s doctor. As a rule, you can not dive if you have asthma.

All papers must be in place prior to the first lessons in diving and speargun fishing - otherwise the learner will be prohibited from participating.

Important: Water sports At Ranum Efterskole College we have several activities at, in and under water. Safty is our top priority, you can read about the safty for the different activities at: http://www.ranumefterskole.dk/efterskolen/ sikkerhedsinstrukser All particpants in watersport activities must pass a 300m swimmingtest.

Adventure Ranum Efterskole College is most definitely a adventure school!

And adventure is extremely developing! You will experience a strong friendship, where the group will go much further together, than the individual ever will be capable of. We work with the concept of FLYT (MOVE) as we use our body to move around in the terrain. Activities will include jogging, orienteering, mountainbiking, kayaking, canoeing, hiking, climbing, free diving and obstacle courses.

Adventure is based at the Nature Sports Centre, and we have kayaks, canoes, mountainbikes, climbing wall and gear available at our disposal.

The adventure expedition in 1st trimester will go to an area in the North with forest, lakes and mountains. We have previously been in Wales, Ireland, Iceland, Norway, Czech Rep., Greenland, Austria and the Canaries.
