EDUCABILITY platform is a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) which hosts 7 online, open access, interactive, self-paced courses: Information Literacy, Critical Information Literacy, Data Literacy, Digital Literacy, Media and Information Literacy, Mobile Literacy and Sustainable Development Literacy. Each literacy course is independent. However, all modules together form a complete Information Literacy Learning Package (ILTP). Curriculum development was based on the structural support of Information Literacy known models, as shown in the basic “Information Literacy” course. The Project proposes innovative approaches and digital technologies for teaching and learning. More specifically it has designed, tested and applied various teaching models and practices, which derive from already established learning theories and can be used in different educational environments. A Transnational Memorandum of Cooperation, Sustainability and Transferability (TMCST) is included, as agreed amongst the Project’s Partners aspiring to promote synergies, cooperation and development of future work between IL community members.
The EDUCABILITY VLE enables the management of online learning and provides areas for participants to engage in asynchronous communication and allows learners tracking and assessment. They can learn at their own space and time about information sources and tools. Each course’s curriculum was designed within the context of Information Literacy. With the completion of modules, EDUCABILITY’s trainees will be able to multiply their IL skills and to develop their own practice every time they transfer the e-content and the training approaches of the ILTP, in order to tailor them to the needs of their own communities.
