PR 2

  • Starting Date: 09-2022
  • Project Type: A standardised teacher professional development framework and guidelines
  • Leading Partner: ASSOCIACIO DE MESTRES ROSA SENSAT

Current situation and forced transition to emergency remote teaching, on one hand, created opportunities, on the other have served as an augmented contextual space to help us understand the needs of educators. Teachers need guidance on the design of current F2F curricula based on sound digital pedagogical and educational neuroscience informed principles. Also, to support transition processes, to this end, research-based Frameworks for faculty development interventions are needed that take into account the knowledge base of cognitive process insights. However, developing interventions to promote effective teaching and meaningful learning is a complex task that requires an interdisciplinary approach. Indeed, learning depends on socio-cultural, emotional, behavioural and cognitive aspects. This also means that each cultural context has different needs and problems that need to be addressed in order to promote and disseminate high-quality digital education. Framework and needs- based specific guidelines will serve as a blueprint, from one hand to deliver promised outcomes of the project, implement it in the form of MOOC-based and community-based training and also, and on the other, increase the impact of the project by disseminating a) theoretical principles behind the training (webinars); b) practical, step-by-step guidelines to help the faculty transform their F2F curricula into a digital one. Here, the role of teachers is crucial since many of the technological or conceptual tools developed in the field of digital education are not adopted. So the direct involvement of the teachers and schools in the development of the framework and guidelines is highly important. Target groups: 130 teacher staff per each partner country (for a total number of 390 teachers), chosen from all disciplines, plus European and International level reach. Elements of innovation and transferability potential: The evidence base from the PR1 will inform the framework and guidelines addressing the different perceived needs of school staff in Europe. This will mean high validity and applicability of the framework and the guidelines in different contexts and other countries. Expected impact: The main goal of this PR is to provide guidance to the on sound research and theoretical principles, as well as serve as a blueprint for the development of appropriate MOOCs for teachers. Thus the results will be used for PR3, PR4 and PR5 to create the resource pack and MOOCs. In the end, all the above-mentioned products will be accessible to other parties ensuring its high impact and dissemination.
