ICT-22-2016: Technologies for
Learning and Skills
Overall Aim:
Promote modernization and excellence in education and
training through pervasive access to digital learning and
21st century skills
Scenario:
• New interactions between formal and informal learning,
changing role of teachers, social media, students attitudes,
strong demand innovation
Obstacles:
• Silo-products, low interoperability, no cross-border adoption
ICT-22-2016: Technologies for
Learning and Skills
Challenges
• Creation of an innovation ecosystem that facilitates open,
more effective and efficient co-design, co-creation, and use
of digital content, tools and services for personalised
learning and teaching.
• And which allows co-creation and co-evolution of knowledge
and partnerships to develop the appropriate components,
services and leading learning technologies, which will empower
teachers and learners and facilitate innovation in education
and training
a. Innovation Action
Develop and test open, interoperable components for a flexible,
scalable and cost effective cloud-based digital learning
infrastructure for primary and secondary education (K12)
• Personalised, collaborative or experimental learning and skills
validation
Solutions should enable:
•
Easy creation, mix and re-use of content, services, applications and
contextual data for interactive learning processes;
•
New learning experiences and experimentation;
•
Innovative educational support services (e.g. learning analytics collecting,
•
storing, sharing learner data in a systematic, secure way)
Solutions should:
• Have clearly defined learning context, integrate dynamic real-time
assessment of learner's progress;
• Be tested through very large pilots in several European countries
