Overall objectives of the inclusive learning resource

Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What are the overall broader objectives to which the action will contribute?) 

Quality improvement, professionalization and modernization of VET training for young low skilled learners through ICT use. The PROMOVET project „is an innovative programme for VET trainers and quality improvement in VET processes for low skilled young learners on how to include most recent and modern web 2.0 instruments and tools, platforms and programmes in the didactical planning and implementation of VET training.

Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the key indicators related to the overall objectives?) 

Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of information for these indicators?) 

The PROMOVET Training Programme is part of the third Intellectual Output of the Erasmus+ project From elearning to “e” in learning: Quality improvement, professionalization and modernization of VET training for young low-skilled learners through modern ICT use.

Risks and Challenges:


Specific purpose of the inclusive learning resource

Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What specific objective is the resource intended to achieve to contribute to the overall objectives?) 

It is a 5-days' training programme, VET trainers have the possibility to learn more about the use of most recent ICT and social media tools in modern VET didactic for young low-skilled learners. It covers reflection of their own training and interaction processes with their learners, introduction of the most frequently used IT and social media tools and their impact on modern VET didactic, the elaboration of VET session plans, and the elaboration of learning materials based on IT and social media tools used by their young learners.

Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (Which indicators clearly show that the objective of the actions/resource has been achieved?) 

The need for the project: VET provision for low-skilled young people is a complex pedagogical challenge. Often, VET trainers report that they find it difficult to "reach" their young learners. When we take a closer look at communication patterns, habits and processes of young people, we can see that reading and writing of complex texts tend to disappear. Communication-based interaction

⇒ is rather short and uses key words, slang words, shortcuts, etc.,

⇒ is fast and immediate; and, above all,

⇒ is becoming, to an ever-growing degree, digital.

All across Europe, however, VET training is still mostly based on the traditional communication channels, even if it no longer centers around purely teacher-centered and theory-based learning. Therefore, PROMOVET partners want to provide VET trainers with competences to make full use of their young learners' communication tools and embed them in VET didactic and training plans.

Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of  information that exist or can be collected? What are the methods required to get this information?)

PROMOVET project partners

⇒ implement an investigative research with young low-skilled VET learners, VET trainers and training experts;

⇒ develop a web-based compendium of tools to support VET trainers;

⇒ develop a training programme for VET trainers on the use of ICT tools and their potential impact in VET didactic for low-skilled young learners;

⇒ support the general improvement of quality and professionalization in VET training through the use of ICT tools; and

⇒ realize a participative VET training approach with young learners teaching the VET trainers in the use of ICT-based tools in a learning environment.

Risks and Challenges: (Which factors and conditions outside the user's responsibility are necessary to achieve that objective? (external conditions)) Which risks should be taken into consideration?  


Expected results on implementation of the resource

Inclusive learning intervention logic: (The results are the outputs envisaged to upscale. What are the expected results?) 

The PROMOVET Training Curriculum has a modular format: each training module is based on the respective guideline for a total of 6 modules and 32 hours of training. The Curriculum is developed by using the Learning Outcome approach, therefore contains a description of ECVET credits in terms of knowledge, skills and competences acquired by participants after having attended each module.                                    

Besides the modular description, the curriculum is equipped with an annex that contains a collection of training materials. These materials include handouts, description of activities, PowerPoint presentations, templates, links etc. The annex materials are available as separate files.

In order to assess knowledge, skills and competences achieved by the participants, the PROMOVET Training Curriculum foresees a final assessment.

Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the indicators to measure whether and to what extent the action/resource achieves the expected results?) 

Sources and means of verification: (What are the available sources of information for these indicators?) 

Risks and Challenges: (What external conditions must be met to obtain the expected results on schedule?) 


Activities

Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What are the key activities to be carried out and in what sequence in order to reach the expected results?) 

The Curriculum consist of 5 different modules.               

Module 1: Reflection and development through PROMOVET 

Module 2. Ethical Consideration and cyber security             

Module 3. Compendium of ICT tools                                     

Module 4. E-lesson planning                                                 

Module 5. Five COOL tools most used by young people.

Module 6.Evaluation of the tools and multiplying their positive impact                                                                                   

Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the means required to implement these activities, e.g. personnel, equipment, training, studies, supplies, operational facilities, etc.) 

Equipment: PC and Internet access

Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of information about action progress?) 

Costs: No costs                                                                      

You can free download the curriculum in pdf form fromhttps://promovet-project.eu/index.php/en/results-en-gb in English or Greek form                                                                                               

Risks and Challenges: (What pre-conditions are required before the use of the resource starts? What conditions outside the user's direct control have to be met for the implementation of the planned activities?)
