About the project
The project supports digital transformation plans of adult-education institutions by increasing the capacity and readiness not only of the institutions, but also of their learners, by providing learners, teachers and adult education center managers with the skills and knowledge to manage an effective shift towards digital education. The project provides a targeted, purposeful use of digital technologies in adult education for supportive teaching, learning, assessment and engagement. The project will develop a series of digital pedagogy skills and competence for teachers, with the aim of encouraging and supporting learners to adopt a critical thinking, reflective and metacognitive approach to their own learning journey. The project’s result will further develop existing European digital frameworks to create a bespoke set of tools to support vulnerable, underrepresented adult learners both personally and professionally. The project addresses the improvement of high-quality learning opportunities for vulnerable, low-skilled and NEET adult learners by providing them with upskilling opportunities to be able to manage their own learning journey, monitor and evaluate their own progress, and ultimately build their metacognitive capacity to adapt to continue learning through self-motivation during challenging situations, such as the Covid-19 pandemic.
