MODEM project, accomplished in 2008, provided the European VET system with an advanced web training model offers the possibility to create and share music among trans-national virtual studio communities. Thus MODEM is a learning environment designed to let students achieve a conscious and strategic use of digital music and networking tools also as an opportunity to develop new professional skills and qualifications. OPEN SOUNDS project transfers knowledge and the use of the potential linked to MODEM to the students allowed in different educational contexts where the digital technologies are used to support the music production and/or to create new professional profiles operating in the music market. The transfer action addressed: a) to the Italian VET system, with particular reference to the public Educational system (Technical and Vocational Schools) and to the Regional vocational training system; b) to the English and Danish VET system, European partners of the project. The main aim of OPEN SOUNDS was, therefore, to transfer operating tools, practises and processes developed through MODEM to the students who belong to these different educational contexts. More precisely, the project outcome was to test the extension of an informal learning model, that use new technologies in their most innovative applications, to help students acquire key competencies in compliance with the EFC and in prospective of the transfer in the labour market. The possibility to benefit such models allow us to integrate them in educational processes in line with the requirements of the knowledge society as well as the individual end vocational needs of students. The prospective of the projects, in terms of expected results, is allow to the students, especially those potential early school leavers, to: a) build the first, structurally, European educational network that use the Musical TD in creative and collaborative keyb) develop digital and technology competence;c) strengthen the active citizenship through a collaborative practice which is going to involve a large number of youths who love music in the partners countries; d) improve the opportunities, quality and fields of transition in market labour. The expected changes in the system concern: - the possibility to develop training strategies which are able to transfer key competencies in VET; - a new educational perspective to build appropriate training courses to access the labour market; a better skill to recognize and evaluate non formal and informal knowledge acquired by students. The partnership in the project is specific and relevant: international institutes of excellence which combine teaching and training with technological and scientific research applied to music, but also software houses and cultural management companies to ensure the coherent transfer of innovation into VET consistently with the requirements of the education systems and the labour market.
