INGENIOUS - strengthenINg diGital pEdagogy skills aNd competencIes Of edUcators
Summary
Vocational education is a key element of lifelong learning systems, which equip citizens with knowledge, skills, and competencies. However, we are currently experiencing a unique state of affairs, in which students often have greater digital competence than some educators. The COVID-19 pandemic has made this gap strikingly apparent, with many excellent teachers struggling with technologies that young people are already familiar with. The whole educational procedure is forced to rapidly and drastically adapt to the new circumstances of delivering training from distance utilizing the vast wealth of digital educational tools.
INGENIOUS has the goal of not to leaveing the VET educators to face this problem on their own, supporting them in acquiring the digital skills needed to smoothly continue to provide their educational work. It will design, develop, and implement a structured training path on acquiring and strengthening digital skills with the VET educators as main target group.
