To create an innovative digital toolkit
To promote digital citizenship in adult education and other sectors, across the EU
APPROACH / METHODOLOGY
DiCE follows a methodology that logically connects the project overall objectives with the work done in its constituent work packages. This logical connection is further divided into specific objectives for each work package. These objectives correlate to the respective work package’s activities and results.
Project ACTIVITIES
DiCE will develop an educational programme (adult education) comprising 6 modules, which will provide capacity building with regards to digital citizenship. This will be implemented in 5 EU countries, with at least 180 adult educators. It will also create an online toolkit to enable the digitalisation of that programme, adding new digital features. Finally, it will engage in an awareness campaign promoting digital citizenship, including an international conference and 4 National info days.
