Description
"Computational thinking, problem-solving skills, as well as social, green and personal skills are becoming increasingly important. As a result, the focus in education is transitioning away from imparting knowledge and more towards enabling independent, reflective, and cooperative competence acquisition. Education in a culture of digitality ensures the participation of all learners with different prerequisites and equal opportunities. Facing these challenges, the proposed project focuses on the development, implementation and evaluation of a cross-sectoral, standardised training and certification system based on the pillars of Computational and Entrepreneurial Thinking, as well as Sustainable Future and Green Skills. This will contribute efficiently to the achievement of future knowledge developments across Europe in vocational and higher education. The final outcome of the project will be a micro-Certification based Education Training System called ""ComeThinkAgain CETS,"" offering micro-modules for both vocational and higher education at a European level. Since teachers and trainers are multipliers for current jobs in the industry and the future workforce, the main target groups of the project are teachers trained at Higher Education (HE) level at Universities of Teacher Education and Vocational Education Training (VET) trainers with focus on ICT professions as well as on certain industry sectors, such as manufacturing or production. The learning materials produced will be published as Open Educational Resources (OER) under an open Creative Commons (CC-by) licence. The approach of providing an internationally accepted and standardised certification is inspired by the European Computer Driving Licence ECDL; (ICDL, 2022). Evidence of the efficacy of this approach is provided by experimental pilot implementations in the project partners’ countries in the form of teacher training at higher education and vocational training institutions."
