Practical sheets 
In this section, you will find 30 Practical Sheets created to provide educators, trainers and mediators with practical and concrete advice, tips, workshops and tutorials.
The goal here is to support you in using the resources we created in this project in your daily professional activity, to give recommendations, to help you train yourself and create tangible tools, but also to provide better overall support for people with special needs and little or no qualifications.
With these Practical Sheets, you will receive guidelines on the use of free and open source software to be able to organize workshops with learners on narrated artworks and on the themes addressed in the project, but also tips on how to use the project and the European art resource banks, and so much more!
