ABOUT EDU TEACH
In recent years, the importance of high quality in education and care for young children has been increasingly acknowledged and reflected
in a high number of European strategies, policies and programmes between the European Commission and the Member States. In 2011,
the Council of the EU formally recognizes the central impact of early years service provision for individual, societal, and economic
success. In the EU 2020 strategy, providing high-quality and accessible education and care are a key element. International skill survey
results (Pisa 2012 (OECD) and Pirls/Iglu 2011 (IEA)) document the relation between early childhood education and care (ECEC) and
school performance which is fundamental for individual development and therefore the key to the future. Improving the general access to
and enhance the quality of education for preschool teachers and education directors as well as supporting their personal development will
ensure a contribution to the European targets.
With regard to the above mentioned points, the aim of the EduTeach project
was to design, test and implement a modular training.
The aim was therefore a modular training programme adapted to the needs and
interests of those responsible for the education and care of young children
(0-6 years) throughout Europe, to enable both flexible and individual learning.
The offer should be based on ICT and integrate self-learning activities with a
touch of interactivity. Flexible and individual learning is now possible based
on the results of the user needs analysis and the assessments of the implementation
of accompanied training sessions. On the basis of the results of the user needs
analysis and the assessments of the delivery of training, EduTeach promotes
research and development of models, methods and didactic strategies for effective
online training for educators, educators and educational leaders. E-Learning modules
on 8 different topics will now be offered on the EduTeach learning platform after
the end of the project, url: www.eduteach-portal.odl.org. The modules are licensed
under a CC license and can be used by anyone free of charge.
