DIG-i-READY
Digital Readiness of Vocational Educational Institutions in an Inclusive Environment
Co-financed by Erasmus+, European Union
Project Period: 01/2022 - 12/2023
Overview
The COVID19 pandemic demonstrated that a significant number of learners and educators are ill-prepared to successfully switch from on-site learning to online learning in an accessible way. The situation resulted in a multitude of issues that need to be urgently addressed:
1) At each school's administrative level, to facilitate the process to prepare to teach online.
2) At a methodological level, to address the lack digital skills among some educators.
3) At the learner level, many of whom are used to using technology, but situations in which families are unable to respond to the learners' needs (access to computers, internet).
The project aims to solve these issues and focus on accessibility in particular:
1) Produce a DIG-i-READY catalogue of good practices, including a special focus on solutions.
2) Develop a DIG-i-READY manual featuring carefully developed digital literacy indicators and guidelines to support "digital transformation", a collection of inclusive digital resources, and recommendations to systematically shift towards a "new and inclusive normal".
