OpenDigCompEdu is a collaboration between a group of organisations from Spain, Romania, Croatia, Greece and Norway who have come together to accelerate the digital competences of educators in school education.
The overall aim of the project is to promote the sustainable adoption of more online and blended approaches in education through the use of open educational technologies and open education principles. We have four clear objectives:
1. To enhance the uptake of open education, open education practices, resources and open digital tools for delivering competence-based teaching.
2. To create and validate an understanding of the sustainability in education through open education within the Framework for open and digital competences for educators.
3. To improve the achievement and recognition of digital competences for education through e-portfolio and formal learning by introducing the OpenDigCompEdu e-portfolio and OpenDigCompEdu MOOC courses for educators.
4. To introduce microcredentials and open badges in open digital competences for school education in the partner countries.
The project has just started and is in its first year, and we have been busy getting into setting up and reorganising our work plans with the the slightly reduced budgets that were given to us.
As part of this, we have developed this website which we hope will become a valuable resource for educators who want to learn more about open digital competences. We will be regularly updating the site with new content, so please check back regularly. We recommend you sign up the newsletter on the News page.
Finally, we would love to hear from you! If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us!
