Σχετικά

Το έργο PANEL (PANdemic emergency and E-Learning: καινοτόμες μεθοδολογίες μάθησης και διδασκαλίας) γεννήθηκε από μια παρατήρηση: Το ξέσπασμα της πανδημίας Covid-19 δυσκόλεψε πολύ τα άτομα με χαμηλές δεξιότητες στον τομέα της πληροφορικής να παρακολουθήσουν τα διαδικτυακά μαθήματα. Οι εκπαιδευτικοί έπρεπε επίσης να προσαρμοστούν σε αυτή τη νέα μορφή εκπαιδευσης. Η ανάπτυξη της εξ αποστάσεως εκπαίδευσης μπορεί, ωστόσο, να δώσει ώθηση όχι μόνο για την εφαρμογή σημαντικών διαρθρωτικών μέτρων, αλλά και για τη βελτίωση και την αύξηση του επιπέδου της γενικής εκπαίδευσης.

Η σύμπραξη

Αποτελέσματα του έργου

Το έργο στοχεύει στη δημιουργία ενός πλαισίου το οποίο θα βοηθήσει τους κπαιδυτικούς να σχεδιάσουν διαδικτυακά μαθήματα με σκοπό να βοηθήσουν τους ενήλικες με χαμηλό επίπεδο δεξιοτήτων στη χρήση ψηφιακών μέσων, ώστε να είαι σε θέση να ολοκληρώσουν τα μαθήματά τους. Προκειμένου να επιτευχθεί αυτός ο σκοπός, οι δραστηριότητες του έργου θα αναπτυχθούν στο παρακάτω πλαίσιο: -Θα υλοποιηθει μία αρχική έρευνα για τα προβλήματα και τις ανάγκες των εκπαιδευτκών και των μαθητών – θα γίνει κοινοποίηση των αποτελεσμάτων – θα σχεδιαστούν 4 πιλοτικά προγράμματα με βάση τα αποτελέσματα που θα έχουν εξαχθεί – θα πραγματοπιηθεί δραστηριότητα κατάρτισης των εκπαιδευτών σχετικά με τις νέες μεθοδολογίες – θα διεξαθεί πειραματισμός των μεθοδολογιών – οι εκπαιδευτικοί θα εφαρμόσουν τις οδηγίες και κατευθυντήριες γραμμές που προέκυψαν.

Αποτέλεσμα 1: Έκθεση αξιολόγησης που προκύπτει από τα ερωτηματολόγια για τους εκπαιδευτικούς, τους μαθητές μαθητών και καλές πρακτικές σχετικά με τα μαθήματα που πραγματοποιούνται με τηλεκπαίδευση

Προκειμένου να αξιολογηθούν οι ανάγκες των εκπαιδευτών και των χρηστών με χαμηλό επίπεδο δεξιοτήτων ώστε να είναι σε θέση να προετοιμάσουν ένα αποτελεσματικό διαδικτυακό μάθημα με τη χρήση ποικίλων μεθοδολογιών, τα ερωτηματολόγια θα απευθύνονται σε εκπαιδυτικούς και εκπαιδευομένους. Στην συνέχεια, θα προκύψει ανάλυση ων ερβτηματολογίων όπου θα αναδειχθούν οι ανάγκες τα προβλήματα που αντιμετωπίζουν και οι δύο κατηγορίες αντίστοιχα. Ακόμη, θα πραγματοποιηθεί ανάλυση των καλών πρακτικών όσον αφορά μεθοδολογίες για τη διεξαγωγή διαδικτυακών μαθημάτων, οι οποίες εφαρμόζονται στις χώρες – εταίρους και θα αφορούς όλους τους ενδιαφερομένους, ακόμη και όσους δεν εμπλέκονται άμεσα στη διεξαγωγή του έργου. Στο τέλος, θα γίνει κοινοποίηση των αποτελεσμάτων των ερωτηματολογίων και των καλών πρακτικών που έχουν συγκεντρωθεί και θα συνταχθί μία αναφορά η οποία θα αναδείξει τις πιο αποτελεσματικές μεθόδους τηλεκπαίδευσης και στους τέσσερις τομείς κατάρτισης. Η έρυνα που θα διεξαχθεί θα συμβάλλει στην προσπάθεια για τον καθορισμό πρακτικών βημάτων όσον αφορά την εκπαίδευση και σε άλλους τομείς καθώς, επίσης και τις ανάγκες και προβληματισμούς που προκύπτουν ώστε οι μαθητευόμενοι να μπορούν να παρακολουθήσουν αποτελεσματικά κατά την τηλεκαπίδευση.

Αποτέλεσμα 2: Προετοιμασία πιλοτικού προγράμματος

Σε σχέση με την αναφορά που θα περιλαμβάνει δυσκολίες τις οοποίες αναφέρουν οι εκπαιδευτικοί σε επίπεδο μεθοδολογιών αλλά και οι μαθητές σε επίπεδο χρήσης των ψηφιακών εργαλείων και μέσων, οι εταίροι θα συντάξουν ένα σύνολο μεθόδων για την εφαρμογή του πιλοτικού προγράμματος το οποίο θα βοηθήσει ώστε να ξεπεραστούν βασικές τεχνικές δυσκολίες κατά τη χρήση της πλατφόρμας αλλά και σε σχέση με αιτήματα και ερωτήσεις που μπορεί να έκαναν οι μαθητές στη διάρκεια των μαθημάτων. Η ανάλυση των αναγκών των δύο κατηγοριών – στόχων θα ληφθεί υπόψη ώστε να σχεδιαστούν τα εκπαιδευτικά μαθήματα για την ενίσχυση των ατόμων με χαμηλές δεξιότητες στη χρήση ψηφιακών μέσων, προκειμένου να τις ξεπεράσουν και να αρχίσουν να αλληλεπιδρού στις διαδικτυκές κοινότητες. Η μελέτη που θα γίνει θα επιτρέψει επίσης τον εντοπισμό διαδικασιών για την ανάπτυξη εκπαιδευτικών δραστηριοτήτων και σε άλλους τομείς δραστηριότητας, δεδομένου ότι οι ανάγκες και τα προβλήματα που προκύπτουν για την αποτελεσματική παρακολούθηση ενός μαθήματος ηλεκτρονικής μάθησης αναδεικνύονται από τους εκπαιδευόμενους. Οι δραστηριότητες θα συντονιστούν από την Kainotomia και το MDCD του Modi’in.

Αποτέλεσμα 3: Υλοποίηση των οδηγιών για τους εκπαιδευτές

Η ανάπτυξη των κατευθυντήριων γραμμών για την τηλεκπαίδευση, ειδικά όσον αφορά τη συμμετοχή ατόμων με χαμηλές δεξιότητες θα βασιστεί σε πρώτο επίπεδο στον περιαμαστισμό των εκπαιδευτικών πρακτικών και της αξιολόγησής τους. Η κατάκτηση αυτών των δοηγιών θα αναπτυχθούν τους τελευταίους μήνες του έργου, ενώ θα ενταχθούν και τυχόν αναπροσαρμογές που μπορεί να προκύψουν. Οι κατευθυτήριες γραμμές θα είναι καινοτόμες ακριβώς επειδή στοχεύουν στην ανάπτυξηνέων μεθόδων για εκπαιδευτικούς οι οποίοι ήταν απαραίτητο να χρησιμοποιήσουν διαφορετικές μεθοδολογίες ώστε να πραγματοποιήσουν μαθήματα με τηλεκπαίδευση εξαιτίας της πανδημίας. Οι κατευθυντήριες γραμμές θα χρησιμοποιηθούν και για την ανάπτυξη των εκπαιδευτικών προγραμμάτων με τη χρήση διαφόρων μεθόδων (διαδυκτυακά και με φυσική παρουσία) και επίσης θα αναπροσαρμοστούν εάν πρόκειται να πραγματοποιηθεί κάποιο εκπαιδευτικό πρόγραμμα εκτός των θεματικών που θα καλύψει το έργο.

UMA participates in the final meeting and congress of the Erasmus+ AURORA project in India on topics of interest for the PANEL Project

The University of Malaga, through its Vice-Rectorate for Mobility and International Cooperation, as a member of the consortium of the Erasmus+ AURORA project (Alliance of universities to strengthen teacher training curricula in the fight against radicalism and the promotion of equality in Asian societies) has participated in its final meeting and congress, organised by the coordinating entity, Banasthali Vidyapith, the second largest female residential university in the world, and which took place in Vanasthali (India) from 11 to 13 January. This programme aims to promote capacity building in higher education for faculty on issues of inclusion, gender equality and social justice, and has been co-funded by the European Commission’s Erasmus+ CBHE (Capacity Building in Higher Education) programme. Staff and students from six countries have participated: Ireland, Romania, Spain, Czech Republic, Nepal and India.

It is a project focused on the training of trainers, trainers who may in their future professional life be involved in adult education. Being a project about basic citizenship skills, active citizenship and social justice, the interest and connections with the KA2 PANEL project is undeniable.

At this event, Dr. Ajay Surana, coordinator of the project and Head of the Education Department of Banasthali Vidyapith, reported the successful outcome of the consortium comprising institutions from six countries: University College Cork, Ireland; University of Babes Bolyai, Romania; University of Malaga, Spain, and three institutions from Nepal, Tribhuvan University, Pokhara University and National Law College, and three other institutions from India, Savitribai Phule Pune University; Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences University; and Anugrah Institute of Social Sciences, apart from the coordinator. This three-year project started in 2020 and ended in January 2024 with a one-year extension due to the difficulties caused by the global pandemic situation. The AURORA team has created three courses for the teacher training programme related to inclusive education, active citizenship, gender equality and prevention of radicalisation. These courses are being delivered in partner institutions in the framework of this project. These courses are supported by a comprehensive and varied set of resources, including videos and an online learning platform. In addition, the creation of student clubs has been promoted in the different Asian entities as a basis for dissemination and sustainability of the project results in the closest territorial scope and thus reaching the entire university community.

The international conference organised on this occasion attracted more than 200 registrations and more than 60 selected research papers from different countries were presented.

Learning from past mistakes: how to transform the pandemic experience into something positive for education

The Covid-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the education sector globally. To limit the spread of the virus, many countries have been forced to temporarily close their schools and universities. This has led to a major disruption in educational routines and forced teachers, students and parents to adapt to new ways of learning.

To continue providing access to education, many institutions have had to quickly implement distance learning programs. This required the use of digital technologies. However, whether teachers or learners, it has been complicated for them to transition and train in these technologies.

So, what has the Covid-19 Pandemic taught us about how to teach? How can we transform the online education experience during the pandemic into something positive for the future?

Transforming the online education experience during the pandemic into something positive for the future involves implementing changes and enhancements to ensure quality, accessibility, and effectiveness. 

But how can we achieve this? 

First, the EU governments need to invest in technology and infrastructure in order to ensure that students and educators have access to the necessary technology and a reliable internet connection. This may involve providing devices, improving internet access, and ensuring compatibility with online learning platforms. They also need to make online education accessible to all learners, including those with disabilities. It was one of the greatest weak points during the pandemie. In addition and in connection with technological problems, it is essential to provide training and support for the educators. Indeed, during the pandemie, many educators and teachers didn’t know how to use the online platforms and the technology in itself. This is why we must offer professional development and training for teachers and instructors to effectively navigate online teaching tools and methodologies. This will help them create engaging and interactive virtual learning experiences.

Moreover, educators should design engaging content and curriculum like for example videos, quizzes, interactive simulations, and discussion forums to keep students engaged and facilitate active learning. But most importantly, educators need to focus on student-centered learning and tailor content and assessments to individual needs. It means that the courses need to be adapted according to the level of studies. For example in middle school, the teacher can use Kahoot at the end of the class to interact with the students. For the University of High School levels, the educators can ask for small presentations in groups in each course so that everyone can participate and feel included. 

Finally, one of the most important things in order to tackle social isolation and stress is linked to the online learning method. Teachers should create opportunities for students to connect with each other such as discussion boards, virtual meetups, and collaborative projects to build a sense of community in the online learning environment. An integration of social and emotional learning should be done in online learning in order to address the well-being of students. An incorporation of activities and discussions that promote self-awareness, empathy, and relationship-building is really important to support mental health and wellness of both students and educators.

In conclusion, by implementing these measures, we can transform the online education experience into a positive and effective learning environment, not only during a pandemic but also for the future of education. This approach will help ensure that online education remains a valuable and accessible option for learners of all ages.

University at home during covid: testimony from a student’s perspective

I’d just started my first year at university when the pandemic began. My class was lucky enough to spend a semester at university, so we got to see what lectures were like and what the difference was between a lecture and an online tutorial. We were able to get to know our classmates and forge links, even planning trips together. Then COVID came along and everything fell through. The next intake of first-year students wasn’t as lucky as us, because they started their courses online using the Zoom application and only got to know their classmates and teachers on Zoom.

Animation courses – logistical connection problems – teachers not trained in online teaching… The university platform was often saturated, so they had to create another one, which at least helped to improve things. However, the teachers were not at all prepared or trained to give online courses. Most of them were not familiar with online platforms. Our courses were mostly given on Zoom and there were often problems at the beginning because of the overload. During the lectures there were many incidents due to the poor quality of the sound, or connexion. Professors and students sometimes got into confrontations because we couldn’t hear each other anymore because some people left their microphones open.

Some tutors and lecturers tried to make the lessons interactive and encourage participation. Some have gone so far as to mark the students who speak up. This started out as a good initiative, but the system disabled a number of students who, for example, did not have a high enough connection speed and were unable to speak without being cut off by the poor connection. Some teachers have tried to force students to put the camera on so that they don’t feel like they’re talking to themselves, but again, not everyone has the right equipment or a good enough connection to do this, while others prefer to find an excuse because they’re not very comfortable showing themselves to the camera and prefer to keep a discreet presence.

So the lessons became robotic in spite of ourselves. It was more difficult to follow some lessons than others, especially those that required a lot of concentration or practice, but fortunately some teachers recorded their lessons so that we could watch them again. They were the real university heroes, while others refused to do so because they considered that everyone should be present at class time and take notes!

However, some students have found themselves in a less than healthy environment in which to study, battling with the depression of loneliness and insecurity, others with toxic families or flatmates, while many are far from their families and friends. Many found themselves without resources because most of the facilities were closed.

It was a real struggle for us because we were often lost, sometimes there were changes to course timetables and also to the way exams were scheduled, which we only found out details of at the last minute because the university was waiting for government directives. The government was also confused and didn’t really know how to manage the situation.

What was the most absurd thing, I think, was hearing people and even politicians discrediting us and our future diplomas by saying that online training is far too easy, and many called us incompetent future managers because we were probably all going to cheat. Thank goodness all that’s long gone. We ended up going back to university and taking our exams as normal, which we passed with flying colors. And we can finally take advantage of our Erasmus exchanges and stays abroad!
