First Phase of Tutor “Research”: Desired, Existing & Upskilling

The initial phase, “Research,” is structured into three steps: “Desired,” “Existing,” and “Upskilling,” all aimed at gathering comprehensive insights into requirements for inclusion in schools.

Desired Insights: We took a look at the ambitions educators hold for inclusive teaching and tried to delve deeper into their long-term goals and desires, exploring their vision for creating an inclusive educational environment.

Existing State: We did further research to uncover the current state of affairs for both teachers and students, seeking to understand their perspectives of inclusive education what they consider important, and their current skills teaching.

Upskilling: At the moment, we are evaluating educators’ readiness to upskill in inclusive teaching and their attitudes toward inclusion. Therefore, we want to identify areas where further improvement is necessary.

To gather this vital information, we conducted diverse research activities: Desk Research, Focus Groups, Interviews, Consultation Talks and Online Surveys. How exactly we did this you can read in our next Post

MOVE-UP – International Webinar “Reaching out to adult learners: key success factor for upskilling pathways”

MOVE-UP initiative aims to improve outreach to potential adult learners in Europe and support participation in upskilling pathways

Our new EU-funded MOVE-UP project is developing a flexible and quality upskilling pathway for unemployed women who are dedicating most of their time and efforts to the role of mother and who are in need to (re) join education activities and the job market.

One of the focus of the consortium is also to improve outreach strategies and activities to positively and successfully engage with potential adult learners and improve their participation in upskilling pathways in a broader sense.

If you are interested in supporting adults to re-join education activities and to enhance Personal Social and Learning competences as well as basic skills (literacy, digital, financial etc.), we invite you to join us for our first MOVE-UP Alliance International Webinar on 16 November at 16.00 CET “Reaching out to adult learners: key success factor for upskilling pathways” to give us feedback on our outreach strategy and share your experiences and good practices on how to improve adult participation in education across Europe.

Webinar programme and registration are available on the MOVE-UP website.
