It would be very good to have this training in real firms. The duration of this training (mobility period) could be 2-4 weeks (it depends on the programme the partner can offer) There will be 1-2 or 3 teachers in one visit. The main aim of the project is to have possibilities to improve qualification of vocational teachers in construction field.

The problem in this context is that teachers are often not aware of the fact that games are also developed for educational purposes. Games have still a negative image, especially by teachers and parents. The result is that teachers don’t use games in their teaching practice, although using (educational) games can increase learners’ motivation. Opinions about gaming and their relevance for education are varying a lot: will ICT and games become the fourth basic skill after reading, writing and calculating or are games just one more tool on the pedagogical shelf? The central research question of this project is: how can games be integrated in the teaching practice of teachers? Main aims • creating a clear vision about the educational value of games. • offering teachers some good examples of educational games. • developing teaching models for integrating games in teaching and learning with ICT. • offering possible learning strategies for the use of games. Target groups • teachers of students aged 18-22 • teachers of adult learners Project field ICT in education Desired partners (countries, type of institutions …) new EU member states teacher training institutions department training of companies Programme (Erasmus or Leonardo da Vinci) Action type (Mobility, IP, partnership, Transfer of innovation, …) Promoting organization: Leonardo da Vinci Development of Innovation Catholic University of Limburg, Hasselt, Belgium Palmenia Centre for Continuing Education, University of Helsinki, Finland Spletni naslov: Kontaktna oseba: E-mail: valere.awouters@khlim.be, ria.bollen@khlim.be, esko.kuittinen@helsinki.fi Address: Campus Diepenbeek Building B 3590 Belgium Phone + 32 11 300476 3 PROJECT IDEA FORM Project idea International Security Management Program and Network Main aims Tampere University of Technology (unit of Pori) has an experience of many years as the academic trainer of the security field.
