The Leonardo da Vinci programme - Thematic monitoring
Theme 5 : E-LEARNING
The information and communication technologies occupy an
increasingly prominent place in both occupational life and in
peoples day-to-day lives. As a result, knowledge of, and access to,
these technologies are becoming essential in terms of boosting
employability and citizenship, more especially because these new
technologies will be increasingly used as learning support media.
The importance of the information and communication technologies
for vocational training was already reflected in the first call for
proposals under the Leonardo da Vinci programme. Current projects
are designed to gather quantitative and qualitative information on
training and learning in connection with the new technologies in
Europe, and develop such themes as the skills shortage in the new
technologies and the quality of training. They are also geared to
developing methods and applications which use the new technologies
for training purposes, particularly for helping teachers and
instructors. The Thematic Monitoring Group would also like to
include other project results from Programmes directed towards
e-learning like the e-learning Programme, Minerva etc.
Questions to be discussed |
-
Practices: How is eLearning put to use in vocational
training? What are the strategies, expectations and experiences of
the participating countries? How do we stand at international
level?
-
Tools and methods: How can we motivate firms and
individuals to make use of eLearning? What solutions should we
devise to meet the needs of users (e.g. trainers or teachers) or
target groups, including the most disadvantaged? What methods
should we use to anticipate and evaluate basic skills in terms of
computer applications? How can we encourage cooperation between
the public and private sectors?
