This main objective is supported by the following complementary objectives:

  • to synthesize the guiding principles for designing MOOCs which support action learning;
  • to develop an innovative and scalable online learning platform;
  • to design MOOCs on digital skills and capabilities offering a coherent set of courses in the domain of digital transformation, including an introductory course on digital transformation and information sectors, and courses on data management and visualization; digital literacy; information organization and access, and user experience design;
  • to create and share standardized international online courses to provide exchange opportunities in virtual learning environments; the courses will be developed in seven languages – English, Turkish, French, Italian, Bulgarian, Estonian, and Hungarian;
  • to ensure personalized learning experiences with suitable tools with an emphasis on action learning;
  • to ensure intelligent, learner-centric analytics to help instructors understand how learners engage with course materials;
  • to implement a mechanism for verifying learning outcomes and generate secure certificates issued after identity verification;
    -to create assessments using templates with features such as hinting, problem banks, automatic question generation, open-ended assessments, and code testers;
  • to provide learners with pathways to improving their digital skills and capabilities;
  • to encourage engagement by the use of a range of technological tools;
  • to disseminate the outputs and the outcomes of the project;
  • to connect with networks which would help to scale up the use of the new MOOCs;
  • to create a community of practice taking this partnership to a higher-level ensuring sustainability;
  • to enhance the possibilities of virtual and blended Erasmus mobilities;
  • to contribute to establishing a European Education Area as well as strengthen the link between education and research, to foster the critical thinking skills of learners who are information professionals of the future.
