Tech-Connected Teacher

The level of investment in teachers’ and trainers’ continuous professional developmentindicates the importance of this area in the context of national and internationaleducational policies. Many European countries do not have unified programmes or aclear vision of the most appropriate ICT tools for adult education and much trainingtakes place in non-formal education institutions, which are not associated and which donot have the same kind of support as the formal education systems provide. There aremany courses for teachers or teacher trainers who are dealing with young students, butstill there is a lack of courses which propose additional studies for teachers who areworking with adults. Teachers and trainers need to be capable of contributing to thesuccessful launch of adult education as lifelong learners.The purpose of this project is to improve the availability and quality of European trainingcourses available to adult education teachers, managers and other adult education staffand to make adult education more accessible by bringing it online; while enabling adultteachers and trainers to find and to learn more about the educational potential ofinformation and communication technologies (ICT) and to acquire recognition andaccreditation of their learning.The main activities to be carried out during the project are:• analysis and research in order to choose the most useful and suitable ICT tools forimproving the availability and quality of European courses for adult education teachers,managers and other adult education staff• to create an international teacher training methodology that builds on the bestEuropean practice and achievements, (to include teachers’ pedagogical capacity in theirspecific subject areas)• to create online multilingual resources for teachers and learners• to design a cascade approach in order to ensure the benefits reach a wider number ofadult teachers and teacher trainers through future courses.Project outputs and results/products are:• improved EU adults training courses accessibility and quality through• unified set of ICT tools a collection of EU best practices in this context• a manual and methodological guide for teachers• a group of trained teachers to act as teachers and consultants to others• monitoring, dissemination, valorisation and evaluation reports,• a final conference to present the project’s results and short and long-term impact.
