Description

The aim of the project is to develop the capacity of the Open Education Association to provide training for adults, which requires updating the teaching methodology and curricula, and creating a modern learning environment, which includes IT solutions.  Our main target group are residents of the Tartu region, who have a need and desire to improve their social skills, particularly in the areas of civic education, personal development, and social skills, in order to cope better in their personal, social and professional life.

1. To develop new fields of study, in particular in the areas of civic education, personal development, basic skills and social skills, a curriculum consisting of 3-4 (several modules) and new teaching methodologies will be developed for each area (area of study) considering both for digital and online learning.

2. Modern training activities are based on a good and comfortable learning environment, both physical and online. To create that, there is a need for new IT solution in the classroom, which requires a secure internet connection and a local computer network. For e-learning, it is necessary to introduce a new projection technique, a touch-screen whiteboard with software solutions. Software for digital learning and online learning (including hybrid learning) will also be developed. To improve the organization of learning, it will be necessary to set up a separate, secure, e-learning room on the association website.

These new facilities will create excellent opportunities for successful learning and ensure a creative and inspiring learning environment for learners and trainers. Trainings in such an environment are effective.
