Digitalization of Training Contents for Middle Schools

Description

The Covid-19 pandemic is impacting heavily on education and training systems. In highly difficult circumstances, it has accelerated the digital transformation and triggered rapid, large-scale change. Covid-19 has demonstrated that digital education is not a marginal issue but a central component of learning, teaching and assessment in the 21st century. In this context, digital competence should be a core skill for all educators and training staff and should be embedded in all areas of teacher professional development, including initial teacher education. Educators should be empowered to adopt innovative methods; engage in peer learning and share their experiences. A trusted digital education ecosystem requires high-quality content, user-friendly tools, value-adding services and secure platforms that maintain privacy and uphold ethical standards. Accessibility, inclusiveness and learner-centred design are vital. Digitools project aims to contribute the development of European digital educational content to promote the highest pedagogical and educational quality and improve the digital teaching skills and competences of teachers. Raising the quality and inclusiveness of education and training systems and the provision of digital skills for all during the digital transitions is of strategic importance for the EU as to Digital Education Action Plan (2021-2017)(DEAP). The Digitools project aims to develop the competencies and capacities of all stakeholders in education, students, parents, teachers and school leaders. Education leaders play a key role in digital education. They need to understand how and where digital technologies can enhance education; provide appropriate resources and investment; empower educators; learn from best practice and support relevant organisational change and a culture that values and rewards innovation and experimentation. Education and training systems need to evolve and adapt and this requires all players, including institutional leadership and decision makers in policy, to lead this change. The Digitools Project partnership includes 8 partners from 5 partner countries. The governorship of İstanbul is the coorinator organisation. It has been planned to realize 1 transnational project meeting in each country, 1 LTT in Turkey, 1 ME in each partner country. With these purposes, we will develop 4 intellectual outputs:1)My Digital Class2)Assessment and Evaluation Compass3)Teachers As Mentors Guidebook4)White Paper: Recommendations for Capacity Building in Digital EducationWith the products developed in the Digitools project:-Skills and competences of teachers to design and deliver digital training who teach Science, Mathematics and English at middle level will be developed.
