From December 9th-12th, we had the pleasure of taking part in an online training for our Digital Pedagogy Cookbook project, which aims to introduce digital pedagogy to educators using the metaphor of the recipe and to make a significant contribution to the improvement of educators’ skills.
The training, which lasted three days with teachers from different parts of Europe addressed issues such as the framework for digital competences of educators, main inspiration for the creation of the toolkit for educators. Focused on 4 different areas, the DigCompEdu framework allows reflection on the existing tools for the digital competence of educators and synthesizes them into a coherent model that would allow educators at all levels of education to assess and develop their digital pedagogical competence in a comprehensive way, also considering the competences of the students.
On day 2, the existing online catalog was presented on the project’s official website (http://digitalpedagogycookbook.eu/?page_id=918) along with the template in which a recipe is published. The goal of this was to let our teachers put their knowledge and experience in practice and give them the chance to create a new recipe step by step through the use of one technological tool in education according to the European digital competence frameworks for citizens and educators.
The recipes created as a result of this exercise are going to be published on the website of the project and be available to everyone soon.
On the third day we discussed how to keep this project going when funding officially ends. We discussed what elements should be promoted to keep our community alive, considering the active community that already exists on Facebook and how to encourage that community to create their own recipes and grow our digital pedagogy cookbook!Join the Community of Teachers here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2823241361097341
