DAECeL - Digital Arts Education - a way towards creative eLearning

The important issue in the project "Digital Arts Education - a way towards creative eLearning" is that not only technical skills but also creativity with dialogical skills and abilities to express one self are essential in promoting digital literacy. The aim of the project is to support strongly active citizenship and creativity of children and young people with the intention of promoting skills of ICT using arts as an instrument. The project brings together already existing social, technological and artistic innovations in order to create in close collaboration between arts organisations and school education such content of eLearning that it provides easy access to ICT to arts and to international dialogue.

E-RETAIL - Digital literacy in lifelong learning of the retail trade sector

The ultimate objective of the E-RETAIL project is to make an evaluation and dissemination of those projects that carry out the promotion of digital literacy through the introduction of the new information and communication technologies in lifelong learning. These projects would be focused mainly in the retail trade sector, which is our starting point with the project "Pilot action to promote life long learning through ICT in the retail trade sector of garments", with the prospect that the results obtained at the end of the implementation of our project could be exportable to other sectors, primarily to those fields that have a bigger shortcoming on the subject of digital literacy in life long learning.

EuNIC - Towards a European "conceptual approach" to digital literacy

The aim of the EuNIC project is to promote throughout Europe a "concept-oriented" approach to digital literacy, as opposed to a technology oriented one. The main objectives of the project are:

  • to identify a European shared approach to digital literacy taking into account the different national contexts;
  • to design and develop ICT services for supporting participants during the courses on digital literacy;
  • to define a model for supporting teachers and tutors, and to support it with ICT services able to create embryos of virtual ‘communities of practice' for teachers and tutors;
  • to develop methods and ICT based- tools aiming at supporting the participants after the course, so that the developed competences can be continuously stimulated and further strengthened;
  • to define a transferability strategy describing how to extend the prototype to a larger scale within the countries involved in the project and possibly in other European countries.
