Inclusive Digital Learning (Dig-2-Inc) is an Erasmus+ project that offers training and design principles to staff members to facilitate inclusion of low-SES students. The project contributes to understanding life skills and digital skills in the higher education environment by systematically describing academic skills, with a perspective of the digital environment in the universities. TUIASI is member of the consortium along with other 6 European universities.
Within the framework of the work package WP4 – Digital Credentialing of Academic Skills, the project partners developed 4 reports aimed at developing support to the needs of low-SES students, and to extend the use of purposeful pedagogical strategies for inclusion to secondary schools, which prepare learners for higher education.
- Report of Competence: Descriptions and Criteria, aims to define the competences and the criteria for credentialing academic skills: to offer the necessary policies and practices for micro-credentials and open badges, following the developing European Union framework for using micro-credentials.
- Report on Life Skills in a Digital Context, which supports institutional planning, curriculum development, and learner engagement, ensuring that graduates are prepared to thrive both academically and professionally in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
- Design Fit-for-Purpose Assessment Methods for Learning in Digital Contexts, that focuses on designing effective assessment methods specifically tailored to digital and hybrid learning contexts.
- Indicators for the Follow-Up Competence Development of Academic and Life Skills, addresses the issue of designing indicators for the follow-up competence development of academic skills, namely digital and life skills, for students with a low socioeconomic status, as well as possibilities for credentialing these skills.
