Good Practices of E-learning SOLutions for Vocational Education and Training – E-SOLVE
Over the past years many innovative ideas have materialized with the support of the Lifelong Learning Programme from different areas of the Vocation Education and Training (VET) system, which are worth to share with a broader audience of stakeholders.
The E-SOLVE project works with distilling knowledge on Leonardo da Vinci (LdV) projects dealing with e-learning, categorizing them according to several aspects, selecting sectorial good practices and disseminating them among VET stakeholders throughout Europe. It aims at enhancing the knowledge on successful e-learning pedagogical and methodological practices, exploiting the ECB (E-Learning for Capacity Building) criteria system which can also be used to evaluate a wider scale of e-learning programmes for VET.
The participants’ reflections will be invited as well as they can introduce their good practices or project results in short presentations, thus they may become one of the showcased initiatives. This can also be an opportunity to highlight upcoming projects just starting in the weeks of the workshop.
