Who we are

This is an Erasmus+ KA2 project that will last from September 2017 to September 2019.
The objective of the Project is to improve digital competences in adults, teachers and students. We will work in two main objectives and working lines:

• Exchange of good practices related to the use of IT in the classroom and to digital literacy in adults
• Project based learning activity “My technological-life history”.

We are three partners who work in the Project:

• Nynäshamns Kompetens Centrum (Sweden) an Educational Centre for adults who coordinates the Project.
• Joniskis Educational Centre (Lithuania) an Educational Centre for teachers, that also offers adult non formal training and seniors education.
• CEPA Buitrago del Lozoya (Spain) an Educational Centre for adults.

SUMMARY

Here you can read a summary of the project:

In times of digitalization and elevated migration movements all over Europe, national and international organisations are making efforts to face these challenges, specifically in the context of the IDCA project, with respect to education. Emerging needs to involve elder/digitally inexperienced students as well as involve immigrant students in today's education create challenges for educational institutions. This implies the modernisation of digital based learning and consequent development of new guidelines and practical implementation of existing tools.

The IDCA project was created in order to face these needs and to develop a new approach to overcome the digital gap by modernising and improving the level of educational quality. In this context, the proposed project expects to generate different levels of impact through the use of its outputs on the participants and organisations both during and after the project.

This project aims at improving the digital competence in adults, both for teachers and students. That will be achieved following two working lines:

The organisations will share good practices in the usage of ICT technologies in class and in the digital literacy of adults. We will analyse and reflect upon the best practices to improve the digital competence.

Using a Project-based learning methodology, the participants will elaborate digital materials to describe our “Technological history”. The aim will be that participants lose their fear to use ICT and reflect on the way technology has changed their lives.
