DIGITAL TEACHING IN VET SYSTEM

Description

The significant changes that took place in the past decades and the big challenges posed at national and international level by the globalisation, the redefinition of the capital-labour relation and the technological revolution are bringing about a radical change of the economic, socio-political and cultural structures in European countries. VET Reforms (New Skills Agenda for Europe 2016) and Labour Market reforms have started a process aimed at filling the gap between demand and supply of competences. The demand of competences, in fact, is affected by factors requiring the constant adjustment of production and training processes as well as the greater connection between education/training system and enterprises. VET teachers must think about the training objectives required by the present innovations, taking into account the present cultural DYNAMIC aspects and meet the students’ needs by using adaptable teaching strategies, which can develop skills for inclusive participation and work independence. Digital training, included in National Programmes, is essential in order to ensure effective training practices for the current VET system which is undergoing organizational and methodological change.The needs analysis carried out by each partner in its own territorial context shows that out of 180 VET teachers/trainers belonging to both the private and the public sector, 91% stated that they have a poor knowledge of digital and immersive teaching methods and/or do not know how to use them effectively. The project Digital.VET supports the objectives set out in national and European strategies for applying ICT to VET systems through teachers/trainers training. Its overall objective is to create a partnership among VET system operators aimed at the development of systematic approaches and of opportunities for the professional growth of VET teachers/trainers based on the development and innovation of education and training methods which are digital, open, innovative and effective.The Partnership is made up of 6 VET and VT Organisations and will be implemented in 5 European countries, namely Poland, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia and Spain. It will improve the technical knowledge as well as the expertise of VET teachers/trainers about the use of innovative and digital teaching methods by creating training pathways, training staff event and VET qualification which will comply with EQF, ECVET and EQAVET European tools of recognition and transparency. It will be based on the Research carried out in partner countries, concerning best practices of Flipped/Mobile/Virtual&Augmented Reality Learning applied to VET sector, which will then be made available in a multilingual Handbook; moreover, the Job Analysis will set out the Competence Profile of Experts in digital and immersive teaching in VET systems. The final output will be the creation of a iDid, namely an Application for virtual and augmented reality teaching that will be available also after the end of the project. Thanks to the project DIGITAL TEACHING IN VET SYSTEM about 630 VET teachers/trainers will be trained on the use of digital and immersive teaching methods by taking part in the experimentation of the intellectual output. 12 VET teachers/trainers will take part in training staff event experiences and 7,222 people will get information through the dissemination at European, national and regional levels. Finally, during the dissemination phase, 2,470 VET teachers and trainers will have free access to the technological IOs: O3 e-learning course, O4 iDid: Application for immersive teaching that teachers/trainers will use to create virtual and augmented reality teaching activities/units; O5 Assessment and self-assessment pathway, according to ECVET principles.The project sustainability will be ensured by the open-source IOs produced for VET teachers/trainers’ training and assessment based on ECVET principles as well as by Stakeholders Committees, which will be signed by both partners and other VET institutions.
