IDEAL FUTURE Work Package 3 Pedagogical Model

35 7 Recommendations for implementation To aid the implementation of the pedagogical model it is recommended that the following actions are undertaken for implementation for the work package 4: Learning content and activities and work package 5: Digital Hub. Critical to the success of the pedagogical model is adapting the DigcompEdu framework to incorporate the skills needs identified in WP2 (Work Package 2) and the levels of proficiency and learning activities identified in this report. Furthermore, the digital hub should be designed so that learning activities are not compulsory, learners have choice. To ensure a continuous and sustained model of professional learning at European level it is important that a certification framework is developed to recognise the different proficient levels, and the associated recognition is provided at each level of proficiency. It is recommended that work package 4 considers this broader context while developing micro credentials. Furthermore, consistency in developing learning activities and materials’ is critical. See table 7 for an overview of the recommendations. Recommendation Work package Adapt the Digcompedu framework to integrate the skills needs identified in work package 2. Integrate this into the digital hub to ensure professional learning is goal orientated Work package 5 Consolidate the levels of proficiency in the competency models to three levels as identified in the ILR. Align the various learning activities to each competency level to provide learning pathways for each participant in the digital hub Work package 5 The digital hub should balance flexibility and autonomy. Within the learning pathways for each participant there should be suggested activities and a choice of learning activities for participants to engage with. In addition, the emphasis should be placed on continuous learning Work package 5 Develop learning outcomes for each competency area and proficiency level to facilitate recognition and accreditation where needed. Work package 4 Provide recommended lists of learning activities and content Work package 4 Develop templates for learning activities and content to ensure consistency Work package 4 Develop a certification framework for each level of proficiency that will be recognised throughout Europe, this should acknowledge the continuous and evolving nature of professional learning in the domain of digital education Work package 4 Develop the accreditation documentation to accredit the appropriate recognition for each level of proficiency Work package 4 Table 7: Recommendations for WP 4 and 5: implementation of the Pedagogical Model
