DigiSkills: Network for the enhancement of digital competence skills
Start date: Dec 1, 2012,
DigiSkills aims to bring together and further develop content, services, pedagogies and practices for LL in school/university/adult population, formulating specific scenarios of use of learning tools and platforms which will be tested with real users from 8 countries and evaluated in terms of their impact, with a particular attention to institutional as well as pedagogical innovation and change. DigiSkills will serve as an accelerator of the sharing, usage, and re-purposing of the already rich existing eLearning resources. First of all, it will demonstrate ways to involve SE, HE and AE communities in innovative teaching and learning practices. It will promote community building between numerous educational institutions of Europe and empower them to use, share and exploit unique resources from a wealth of educational repositories. In addition, it will demonstrate the potential of eLearning resources to meet the educational and quality needs of these communities, supported by DigiSkills Inventory, a social platform where stakeholders will be able to discover, acquire, adapt eLearning resources on their topics of interest and also use e-assessment tolls. Finally, it will assess the impact and document the whole process into DigiSkills Best Practice Guidelines. Its basic aims are to: i) develop a systematic methodology to define the criteria for identifying best practices; ii) develop a web-based Inventory, including a collection of best practices; iii) establish a constantly-expanding network of SE, HE and AE communities; iv) collect and develop innovative, relevant and multilingual content; v) develop ICT literacy skills and ensure the use of innovative teaching and learning practices. DigiSkills aims to carry out a set of pilot sessions with a number of representative user groups in order to adapt content to current needs, evaluate the proposed approach and perform an extended dissemination and validation of the project outcomes in a wide network across Europe.
